How Does a CNC Press Brake Work?
A CNC (computer numerical controlled) press brake is an automated piece of machinery designed to bend, fold and shape sheet metal into a multitude of profiles and designs. As with CNC Laser Cutting, information is entered into a computer containing precise details about the part you want to make, including lengths, angles and other measurements. Following these instructions, the metal sheet is forced into shape between one fixed element (called a die) and another piece applying the pressure. There are a number of tools available for both the fixed and moving elements, to help achieve the desired result.
Our highly skilled press brake operators take account of the design, material and any springback to ensure the quality and consistency of your components. At ASA, we have a wealth of experience giving you the confidence that your folded parts will be right first time, every time.
