Why Every Shop Needs a CNC Press Brake

Everyone who runs a fabrication shop will attest to the fact that the work needs to be optimized to do more and produce with greater accuracy. CNC Press Brake Machine is one such piece of equipment that helps in metal forming. 

CNC Press Brake

To understand the evolution of metal forming, we need to evaluate Pan Brake vs Press Brake. Pan brakes, used for metal forming, were replaced by press brakes as pan brakes are manually operated. Press brakes are also used for metal fabrication. But, as opposed to pan brakes, they aren’t manually operated, thanks to CNC.

How does a CNC Press Brake Machine Work?

Press brakes work by clamping the parent material between a die and punch. After that, the force applied bends the metal into its desired shape. A CNC Press Brake Machine is superior because it automates the process by feeding the orders into a program. 

Benefits of Having a CNC Press Brake in Your Shop

  1. Setup time is quicker: It is quick to be installed. Once installed, for each project, the operator only has to feed the programming.
  2. Efficiency and accuracy: It can be used for production as well as for prototyping. Further, automation leaves little room for error and produces goods with great accuracy.
  3. Simpler execution with CNC-programmability:  There is little human intervention required in CNC press brakes.
  4. Close-tolerance: The accuracy of the finished good vis-a-vis the design on the CAD software is great. This precision or tolerance is exceptional with this superior technology.
  5. Cost efficiency: The cost of CNC press brakes is considered high by some people. But it is not the case now that technology is so vastly used. 
Phillips India has a range of pocket-friendly CNC Press Brakes. We also offer on-site customised training in CNC Press Brake Programming to hone the skills of your experts.  Additionally, a lot of the profiles for the metal form can be installed from CAD software directly as well.

Choosing the Correct CNC Press Brakes

When buying a CNC Press Brake, most factory owners consider these two factors first and foremost: tonnage and bending length. But before that one needs to determine the dimensions of the metal being formed, i.e., its size and its thickness
  1. Tonnage: It is the brake’s bending force that dictates the level of pressure that can be applied to the metal. Higher the tonnage, the more its power to bend thick, strong metals.
  2. Bending Length: This is the maximum length of the material that the brake can bend or form. Having a slightly larger bending length is recommended so that smaller ones can be accommodated as well.
