Hydraulic Press Brake Troubleshooting

One-of-a kind technology that provides press brake operators with efficient, high-quality results.

Our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes are designed using the CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control which is the latest technological advancement in Press Brake designs and utilizes a blast system that removes rust from the work-piece surface. Because it is run on Servo Electric systems, our range of advanced dual bending machines function purely electrically. They require no form of hydraulic oiling and energy consumption is minimal.

The tonnage of a Hydraulic Press Brake, also known as the Press Capacity, is what determines how large a work-piece can be processed by the Press Brake. It is also the unit of force measurement that a press brake can deliver. This is what bends work pieces into desired/specific degrees. Our Press Brakes can handle tonnages from 30 to 3000 tons, while the bed lengths start at 4 feet and go up to nearly 30 feet.

The motor inside a mechanical press brake operates via a motor. This motor spins an enormous flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls the flywheel via a clutch. A clutch then sets the other parts in motion and bends the metal. The mechanical press brake, with its electronic controls, is much simpler and makes maintenance and operation simple. A mechanical press brake can handle tonnages that are two to three times larger than their intrinsic rating due to its design. The downside to using mechanical press brakes, however, is that the machine's ram must complete its full cycle before it can be reversed. The operator can make mistakes, which could lead to safety concerns. A potential danger is that the press brake may become locked if it travels too far.

Our energy-efficient, all-electric BB series press brakes come specially designed with a collection of ultra-modern, performance-enhancing features that are perfect for meeting and exceeding the demanding requirements facing today's production machinery experts.

Warning: Incorrect tonnage (too low or too high) can cause damage to your press brake and the part you are bent. Refer to the operating manual for details on how to calculate the tonnage of the press brake.

Hydraulic press brakes apply pressure via hydraulics to force the ram down, instead of relying solely on mechanics. They may have more than one cylinder and give the operator more precise control over the bend. The result is a highly accurate and customizable bend. Like mechanical press brakes, hydraulic press brakes do have some specific disadvantages. Primarily, they cannot exceed the range of their rated tonnage. If your project requires flexibility, mechanical press brakes may be preferred.

Gulf States Saw & Machine can help you whether you require precise and detailed computer-controlled measurements, or simple bends. Co has two fantastic options for hydraulic press brakes, in different sizes, at very affordable prices. Get a quote today by contacting our team.

Computer Numerical Control

The bending angle must be adjusted according to the metal springback and the margin must also be calculated. For example, a 90deg bend requires that the punch be lowered to 85deg.

Whatever your bending needs, our BB series is here to make sure that power, precision, and profit are never far away.

This type of bending is used most often for sheet metal work because it can be used on machines with smaller capacities than bottom bending which requires more force.

Bottom bending uses a punch to bend the metal sheet at a high rate (3 to 5 times more than airbending), which reduces or eliminates the springback effect common with airbending. The process starts with air bending, and then goes on to cold forging at the bottom.

How To Hydraulic Brakes Work

This type of bending is most commonly used for sheet metal working as it is suitable for machines with reduced capacities, unlike bottom bending, which requires more force.

Backed by Standard Industrial's reputation for durability and repeatability, our press brake machines offer important advantages over other models.

Your car will struggle to stop if your speed is lower than the lowest gear. This can be avoided by pressing the clutch to ensure that the engine does not depend on the transmission. Then, start braking.
