Bending sheet metal and metal plates into predetermined bends is possible with a press brake machine. At LSG Machine Tools, we offer a wide variety of these valuable pieces of equipment allowing fabricators to cut, punch and bend various thicknesses of sheet metal.
The Perfect Multi-Operational Tool: The Press Brake Machine
As a metal fabricator, you need to rely on a press brake machine that produces results at a quicker pace, can fulfil large orders and has less material wastage. To make an informed decision as to whether your metal fabrication business can benefit from one of LSG Machine Tools’ refurbished press brake machines, let’s take a look at some of the major advantages they present.
- Take manufacturing in-house
Whether your sheet metal fabricating is done completely in-house or not, as a metal fabrication business having a press brake machine will eliminate the need to outsource sheet metal bending to a third party. Having your own machine gives you the edge as you can manufacture your own materials, greatly reducing costs.
- Save on materials
An automated CNC press brake machine relies on pre-programmed design features. These versatile tools not only follow an effective controlled procedure but also have significantly less material waste. The efficiency of these multi-operational tools eliminates the need for post-processing metal parts, as the machine can curve, cut or bend sheet metal into accurate pieces.
- Create simple or complex designs
Over the decades, improved technology has introduced customisable parts to press brake machines. This allows metal fabricators to build on the basic design criteria of bending metals to the formation of more intricate, complex metal shapes as well as burring and coining.
- Streamline operations
Whether fully or partially automated, a press brake machine has been uniquely engineered to improve parts accuracy and cut down on extensive labour costs. Sheet metal fabrication can be done efficiently and effortlessly, as a result increasing productivity.
By applying different strategies in tooling and press brake operations, especially with CNC-controlled types, there are no limits to the design possibilities.
