    Steel press braking, sometimes known as brake forming, is an industrial forming method which shapes metal through a punch pushing a metal sheet down onto a specially formed tool. This typically creates shapes such as an angle or V shape, channels, Z and C sections, as well as bespoke shapes.

    FAQ's

    During the press braking process, a length of sheet metal is inserted into the press brake machine, along with the correct tooling. A punch will then be lowered to the sheet metal, pushing it down onto a specially formed tool. The metal then assumes the shape of the tooling, which can be changed when different final dimensions are required.

    A press brake may be defined by its method of force: this can be pneumatic, hydraulic, servo electric, or mechanical. Hydraulic press brakes typically generate the greatest amount of tonnage, whilst servo electric and pneumatic are considered amongst the fastest types of press brakes.

    Press braking can be used to form metal sections used within the automotive, agricultural, solar power, aerospace, construction, and commercial goods industries, amongst many other industries which utilise metal parts.
