Machines that press brake sheet metal are used to form long sheets. These sheets are commonly used in manufacturing, for industrial applications, or to make components for other devices. Most press brakes have a rating based on their pressability and their bending length. This information is expressed as numbers (e.g., total pressure per inch, or pounds of pressurized material per inch). They are available in many sizes and can often be equipped with additional tools and add-ons to make custom components. The two main types of presses brakes that you will find are hydraulic and mechanical. In the following sections, we will explain the main features and distinguish between the two types.

Flexible and reliable bending performance, all with the patented HEXA(r) frame – all in a cost efficient package

Do you require a machine capable of processing and bending steel sheets? Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. offers single and dual cylinder Y1+Y2 hydraulic press brakes that can bend plates and metal sheets quickly and easily. They are strong and can easily be relied on by fabricators for different forms of bending. Hydraulic Press brakes are easy to operate. It basically means that the material being used must be attached to the bed while it descends.

When calculating the margin, other elements must be considered, such as thickness of punch blade, fold length, and opening of V.

There are two ways press brakes can bend metal. The first is called bottom bending because the ram will press the metal to the bottom of the die. Bottom bending results in highly accurate bends and relies less on the press brake machine itself. The downside is each tool is they're made to create one specific bend, so you’ll need to purchase a new one for every angle you want to make. Air bending leaves an air pocket between the ram and the bottom of the die. This allows the operator to accommodate for any spring back the material might provide. These types of dies only need to be changed if the material’s thickness is too much. Air bending’s drawback is the accuracy of the angle is affected by the material’s thickness, so the ram needs to be changed out accordingly.
