Sheet metal production processes – a small brief into the stages of fabrication and process – part 1

A lot of time we are talking about technologies we are selling – mainly about our bending tools and about press brake machines because the process of sheet metal bending is the core business. But for sure bending is not only one process and in this article we will try to explain the complete fabrication…

Original and non-original tools

Well, our new article on original and non-original tools for machine tools. We are a supplier of non-original tools for press brakes, tube bending machines, punching machines, etc. There is an important question to explain what customers could receive with the purchase of original tooling but what they can get with non-original as well. And…

What factors should I consider when purchasing a press brake?

This was the question in Quora and we made the answer. But the policy of this web is that results could be not indexed for a long time so nobody will find our answer. And we thought — why do not make an article about it? And as usual, we are talking about our knowledge,…

The present situation about the market of laser cutting machines

It is true we don’t write a lot about other production technologies or machine tools where we are not connected. But we need to have more materials, more articles and we cannot write about press brakes only so at this time we will speak about lasers or laser cutting machines. Small words about the rough…

Spring back for the press brake is an important factor in fine bending

We already wrote what is spring back in the past but now we believe that it is better to make it as the complete article. First, about the terminology. Spring back or elastic return — the normal condition of any material that during the stress and deformation can return to the initial form. So for us,…

Special tools, special requirements, and special customers for bending

We will tell you today a good story about press brake tools and bending solutions. There are a lot of projects which are hard to develop and if it is a new application for us it is not possible to remind the previous experience what was done already and to repeat.Tooling-producing factories deal with standard…

Some considerations about tube bending machinery

We have a long experience in tube bending in a lot of important sectors from the copper tube for air conditioning to aerospace applications. And we can tell for sure that tube bending is one of the most complicated sectors where you exactly do not know what machine is correct for your needs. Let us…

Automatic press brake bending

As you probably know we like robotic bending technology — it is really marvelous. First, for sure it is connected to the press brake tools we are selling. Second, we just like automation in the sheet metal industry and like to describe some details in our articles. Third, we cannot miss so active technology in…
