Press Brake

What is Press Brake?

Press brake is; CNC-based sheet cutting and sheet bending is a laser cutting method that is a very important process for many different industries. We are able to do this in desired dimensions and sizes. Aktif Lazer can produce any kind of product with zero error by using its cutting-edge technology CNC machines. Manufacturing fault is unlikely for CNC machines because every little detail is calculated and uploaded to these machines, which makes flawless manufacturing possible.

This perfect method, which is also called Press Brake Bending, can shape any metal sheet into the desired form. It is important to input all the required data into the CNC machines such as; type of the material, bending speed, bending angle, the amount of the products, and general information about the material.

Thanks to computerized technologies, CNC sheet cutting and CNC bending is a very easy process today. When we considered the traditional method, using bare hands to this job, this heavy work is not so dangerous and challenging today. This CNC sheet cutting and bending method is developed in order to eliminate this danger while providing light and heavy industrial needs in an easier way.

Press Brake Uses Areas

Today, the press brake cutting and bending method is a very common process in many industries. It is specially used in areas such as;

• Automotive panels,
• Airplane fuselage,
• Metal art,
• Furniture,
• Metal doors,
• Maritime engineering,
• Mechanical manufacturing,
• Steel industry,
• Constructions,
• Automotive engineering,
• Signboard production,
• General construction,
• Space engineering and machines,
• Spare parts production,
• Cabin manufacture,
• Pipe production,
• Panel production,
• Kitchen utensils
• Many other sheet metal shaping applications.

There are two important parts in a press brake machine; punch and die. Die has a special mold and when all the parts work together, the metal sheet is turned into the desired shape.

Whatever sheet production project you have, Aktif Lazer can provide you the best solution. Our experienced press brake operators can manufacture the desired molds in order to produce different products such as cans, pans, and other pots.

As Aktif Lazer Company, we have the best manufacturing facility that is capable of making mass production of any desired industrial products by laser cutting and press brake.

The only thing that you should do is just contact us. You should always keep in your mind that press brake cutting and bending prices vary according to the type, shape of the materials, and hardness of the process.

What Type of Material Sheets we can Cut 

We can make cutting and bending of these sheet materials;

• Stainless steel sheet cutting
• Composite cutting
• Galvanize material cutting
• Iron cutting
• Teflon cutting
• Copper cutting
• Aluminum cutting
• Chrome cutting
• Guillotine cutting
• Plasma cutting

How to use press brake?

Sheet cutting and bending machines can be produced in different shapes because different needs require different solutions in order to complete work in the fastest and the easiest way with zero mistakes. There are different press brake machines with different load capacities. There are many different parts to these practical machines.

These parts are; punch, die, hydraulic axis, and numerical control units.

• Upper mold = Male mold = Punch
• Lower mold = Female mold = Die

The most common die type is V-die. In this type, the press brake machine can form the sheet into the desired shape by bending.

These are different machine types;

• Cylinder sheet bending
• Conical sheet bending
• Lama bending
• Pipe bending
• Profile bending

It is possible to use CNC press brake cutting and bending machines for up to 16 mm of material thickness. We assure you that bending and cutting processes are done finickily, so you will have the exact dimensions and proper profiles, pipes, sheets for your needs.

Other than these processes, we can also make die and/or weld these products according to your needs. We use electrostatic paint in order to make the surface quality into top levels. This way, these sheets can be used for any kind of purpose without any problem for many years.

Advantages of Press Brake

There are many advantages of this method. These are in general;

• Mass production. It is possible to produce many parts in a very short time
• We can control the speed of the bending machine
• 0 mistake
• Dimensions can be cleared easily with computer systems
• The line of bending can be controlled.
• It is also possible to make bending with different dimensions.

As you can see CNC press brake bending is a very advantageous production method. As Aktif Lazer, we can make CNC sheet cutting and bending works according to your needs with our latest technology machines.
