For engineers, designers, and businesses, the ability to create unique, high-quality metal components is a superpower. This ability depends on a seamless process, from sourcing custom sheet metal materials to delivering precision, custom sheet metal parts. This process typically involves two core disciplines: extensive metal part fabrication and the detailed focus of sheet metal fabrication.

Press Brake Forming is a metalworking process that uses a press brake machine to bend flat metal sheets into the desired final shape. Force is applied between a punch (upper tool) and a die (lower tool), enabling linear bending in a wide range of metal materials and thicknesses. All press brake machines are equipped with CNC controls to ensure precise part positioning and high repeatability.
Diverse Applications: Press Brake Forming is ideal for manufacturing a variety of parts, including:
Fast Delivery: Qualified formed parts can be delivered in as fast as three days to meet fast production demands. Using press brake forming technology, we efficiently and accurately produce metal parts that meet our customers' needs.
Follow these guidelines for formed sheet metal parts to ensure consistent quality and fast production times:
Maximum Bend Length | 47 in. |
Minimum Qualifying Part Size | 0.05 in x 0.05 in (12.7mm x 12.7mm) for formed parts |
Maximum Pressing Force | 80 tons |
Bend Angles | 1 degree ‘kick’ to 135 degrees |
Bending Output | Linear bends—external and internal flanges |
Maximum U-Channel Ratio | 2:1 (width:height) |
Internal Radius Tooling Options |
0.01 in. to 1 in. (standard tooling increments) >1 in. radius bends will be bump formed |
Offsets | Standard offset tooling sizes |
Hems | Closed hems up to 47 in., open hems up to 36 in. |
