These machines run fast and efficiently and are more reliable than their predecessors.
This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long term, high speed, energy-efficient operation.
Ranging from entry-level hydraulic all the way up to heavy-duty, fully customized solutions that cover any of your requirements for sheet metal forming, these press brakes represent the apex of pounds-to-performance for industrial bending.
Flexible and reliable bending performances with the patented HEXA (r) frame – all this in a cost-efficient package
This dual-drive hybrid allows for quick and efficient project management with long-term, high speed, energy-efficient operation.
Warning: incorrect tonnage (too high or low) can damage your press brake or the part you are bending. To calculate the tonnage of your press brake, refer to the operating manual or a tonnage table.
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.
Made for high performance at a low price, our PBF value series CNC brake line press line is made. Three models are available from which to choose. Each brake press comes with our Easy Bend controller. It's easy to use in just 5 minutes. Maintaining metal bending at a simple price that you can afford.
The ADR and the ADS hydraulic press brake is as fast as it is accurate. With accuracy numbers like +- .0004 and repeatability to match, these press brakes take a back seat to no machine made anywhere. As with all the press brakes in the JMT lineup, our concept of “large strokes, high openings and deep throats is ever present in these machines, which allow the operators to make parts with larger flanges and make the removal of those parts much easier for the operator to manage. With easier quicker setups, a more operator friendly control, a press that moves at breakneck speed, the end result is more parts in the bin by the end of the shift with a higher piece to piece overall quality.
ADR and ADS hydraulic brakes are just as fast as they can be. These press brakes make it the best machine in the world, with repeatability and accuracy to match. Our JMT line of press brakes has the same concept as all other JMT presses. These machines have large strokes, high openings or deep throats that allow operators to make more complicated parts. You will have more parts in your bin by the end the shift thanks to a faster setup and more operator friendly controls.
Two methods can press brakes bend steel. The first is bottom bending, where the ram presses the metal to its bottom. Bottom bending allows for precise bends, and less reliance on the machine's press brake. Each tool has its limitations. They are designed to create a particular bend and you will need a different one for each angle. The bottom of the die and the ram are separated by an air pocket when air bending occurs. This allows for the operator to account for any material spring back. These types of dies need to only be changed if there is excessive material thickness. Air bending has a drawback. Because the thickness of the material can affect the accuracy, the ram needs changing accordingly.
Our manual control push brakes are suitable for industries and jobs that don’t require the precision and detail achieved by CNC controls. The manual press brakes include all the safety features of CNC models. However, manual presses are more powerful and easier to use than CNC models. They feature a front operated power back-gauge, ram adjust with digital readings, and fine adjustment handswheels for both. Our models range from 22 to 44 tons.
This method gives high precision in angular measurements. This method can be used on sheet metal up to 2 mm thick.
It is finally possible to find a robust, heavy-duty press brake solution that is easy to use and loves.
The bending length of the press brake should be slightly longer than the sheets you wish to bend. The press brake can become damaged or destroyed if it isn't the right size.
Hydraulic disc brakes have the advantage of self-adjusting as they wear down. The caliper's design will allow it to retract a predetermined distance from the rotor, regardless of how worn the pads are. This is amazing, and you don't need to adjust your brakes like with mechanical pads.
The press brake is usually narrow and long, so large sheets of sheet metal can easily be bent by it. The press brake bends sheet steel by placing a punch on sheet metal placed on top of a tool. A press brake can bend the metal several times until it reaches the desired shape.
Brake Pads May be Damaged by WD40 WD40 is not an oil cleaner. It is an oil, and should not be used on a friction surface. The friction surface of brake pads is called WD40. If you spray WD40 on them, they will need to be replaced or cleaned.
The principle of Pascal's Law governs hydraulic presses. It states that pressure applied to a fluid within a fluid causes pressure changes throughout the fluid. The hydraulic press has a piston, which acts as a pump and provides a slight mechanical force to a small portion of the sample.
