Typical Work
- U-channels, angles, Z-brackets
- Hinged enclosures & chassis
- Gussets and mounting tabs
- Formed blanks for secondary CNC ops
Press Brake Forming
Precision sheet metal bending for brackets, enclosures, gussets, and chassis. Cut on our fiber laser, formed on a CNC press brake for consistent angles and radii.
Max Bend Length
~ 1200–2500 mm (model-dependent)
Tonnage
~ 40–100 t (model-dependent)
Materials
Mild steel, stainless, aluminum
Lead Time
As fast as 48 hr (rush)
Material & Thickness (guide)
- Mild steel: 0.8–6 mm
- Stainless: 0.8–4 mm
- Aluminum: 0.8–6 mm
Exact ranges depend on final press brake tonnage and tooling—will update after purchase.
Tolerances & Quality
- Angle tolerance: ±0.5–1.0° typical
- Flange length tolerance: ±0.25–0.5 mm
- Consistent inside radius per punch radius
Tooling & Radii
- Air bending with V-dies and gooseneck punches
- Inside radius ≈ punch tip radius (material-dependent)
- Acute bends, hemming, and offsets with dedicated tooling
DFM Tips (Save Cost)
- Use standard radii/V-die openings when possible.
- Keep minimum flange length ≥ 3× material thickness (or ≥ V/2).
- Avoid tight hole-to-bend distances; leave ≥ 2× material thickness.
- Etch bend lines/text on laser blanks to speed setup.
Post-Processing
- Deburr/edge break
- Hardware insertion (PEM) on request
- Powder coat, anodize, passivation, black oxide
