Press brake tools - are tools that should be installed on an industrial bending machine (press brake) to perform the bending operations. Press brake tools mainly are top (punches) which are installed on the moveable beam of the machine and bottom (dies) which are installed on the fixed table. During the stroke of the beam, the punch approaches the die with the positioned part and realizes the bend when goes into the die to the programmed position.
All press brake tools are different based on clamping system, geometry, configuration, material and applications to be used, moreover have such technical parameters as angle, height, and radius for punch, opening, angle, top and bottom radiuses, height - for dies, moreover all tools have limits for possible pressing force. Mainly different bending configurations and tasks request various geometries for the correct and effective bending process to prevent any possible collision with the part.
At the present, thanks to digital controls, software, and CNC all geometries of press brake tools are possible to import into the program and to verify very precisely in digital simulations the material deformation during the bend and the presence/absence of possible collisions before starting of a real job. We are able to provide geometry files for our customers for all possible studies and tests.
Various holders, adapters, elongation adapters, and supports allow making more complex installations of press brake tools for different possibilities.
