Bending is a manufacturing process that produces a V-shape, U-shape or channel shape along a straight axis in ductile materials, most commonly sheet metal.
The machine used (Press Brake) is fitted with a V-die and a punch.
The metal sheet can be bent in two different ways:
Air Bending: Where the punch does not fully reach the bottom of the V-die (varying press-stroke depth)
Coining: where the top tool forces the material into the bottom die.
Using our Press Brakes, unitary parts or series of up to 5m in length can be bent (Steel, stainless steel and Aluminium) with a die-forging power of 20 to 500 tonnes – while always conserving a precise and consistent quality.
