Press Brake
In press brake forming, a workpiece is positioned over the die block and the die block presses the sheet to form a shape
Usually bending has to overcome both tensile and compressive stresses. When bending is done, the residual stresses cause the material to spring back towards its original position, so the sheet must be over-bent to achieve the proper bend angle. The amount of spring back is dependent on the material, and the type of forming. When sheet metal is bent, it stretches in length. The bend deduction is the amount the sheet metal will stretch when bent as measured from the outside edges of the bend. The bend radius refers to the inside radius. The formed bend radius is dependent upon the dies used, the material properties, and the material thickness.
Our commitment to perfection gets this right in every way, every time.
