High productivity, heavy-duty bending performance, and intuitive operation – all in a cost-efficient package
PBF value series CNC brake press line manufactured for high performance to price ratio. We offer our lowest priced brake press line in 3 popular models to choose from. Each is equipped with our Easy Bend CNC controller which is easy to learn in 5 minutes or less using a simplified display with less buttons, more productive with enter & go specifications for desired angles, no programming required, USB interface for backups, easy shifting to CNC advantage controller by plug in giving brake operators more effective and basic control than a conventional brake press. Keeping metal bending simple at a price you can afford.
Do you need a strong and reliable machine for processing and bending metal sheets? At Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 Hydraulic Press Brakes are capable of bending metal sheets and plates without hassles. They are strong and can be relied upon by fabricators for various form bending. The operation of our Hydraulic Press Brakes is quite simple as it basically requires that the material being worked on is fastened on the bed while the ram descends on it.
Standard press brakes provide the reliability and dependability you need day in and day out. The controls are simple to use and offer a user-friendly experience. Our press brakes are capable of handling a variety of materials including soft brass and heat-treated aluminum alloys as well as stainless steel and soft aluminum.
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.
As part of our Perfect Machine Process, every Standard hydraulic press brake is rigorously inspected in our Rockford, Illinois, facility so that it’s ready for seamless installation in your shop.
Standard press brakes are reliable and dependable, day after day. It is easy to use the controls, which are extremely user-friendly. Our press brakes can handle a wide variety of materials, including soft brass as well heat-treated aluminum alloys and stainless steel.
A crowning unit might be useful for certain applications, such as multiple die sets that are used in one stroke or a larger brake that forms a large range of materials.
Bottom bending is when the punch curves the sheet of metal with a higher force than air bending. This reduces, or even eliminates, the spring back effect that is commonly associated with airbending. Cold forging is then performed at the bottom.
The majority of press brakes are intended to work in the center of the presses. When there is a lot of force required near the brake's ends, Standard Industrial press brakes will apply off-center load.

Standard Industrial is able to provide full-length tonnage over the entire length and has the lowest deflection. Crowning is not necessary.
Standard Industrial offers a variety CNC gauging systems. These range from the most basic single line display to the most advanced 2D and 3D modeling, and everything in between. Press brakes come with no backgauge, CNC control or other standard features. A complete listing of systems can be found in our CNC Controls and Gauging catalog.
Mechanical press brakes operate via a motor inside the device. This motor spins a large flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls the flywheel through a clutch, which then sets the rest of the parts into motion to bend the metal. The mechanical press brake is much more straightforward, especially regarding its electronics, making maintenance and operation easy. They can also handle tonnages two to three times higher than their inherent rating, due to the nature of the mechanisms. The primary disadvantage of using mechanical press brakes is that the ram inside the machine must complete a full cycle when engaged and cannot be reversed. This creates some safety concerns if the operator makes a mistake and sets some limitations on the machine. One possible hazard is the potential for the press brake to become locked if the ram travels too far.
To pump hydraulic fluid into the system, pressure is applied by hand. The pressure is transferred to another area, and the resultant force can reach 25 tons.

Hydraulic systems have many advantages, including power, efficiency, and ease of maintenance. They also have their drawbacks: they can leak which can make them messy and the fluids within them can be difficult to paint or seal.
Hydraulic brakes are more efficient than mechanical disc brakes. This means that you will need to apply less pressure to the lever for equal braking power. This allows for better modulation.
The press brake is, in reality, one of the most difficult machines to master in the trade. Every sheet metal operation needs to bend.
