Here you'll find a range of answers to some of the more common questions regarding our range of brake presses we've been asked in past.
Hydraulic brakepresses use hydraulic fluid to power the bending action, offering robust force and the capability for heavy-duty bending operations. They are known for their power and versatility in handling different materials and thicknesses.
On the other hand, hybrid press brakes only use hydraulics during bending of materials, therefore mostly using electric servos to power the bending action, providing high precision, energy efficiency, and faster cycle times with less maintenance. The choice between the two depends on your specific production needs, including material type, thickness, and the precision required.
Hybrid press brakes, such as the APHS HYBRID series, combine the best features of hydraulic and electric press brakes, offering a blend of power, precision, and energy efficiency. The nuanced design integrates a servo-electric motor to power the hydraulic system, reducing energy consumption by only activating the hydraulics when necessary for bending.
This innovative approach provides the force and capability of traditional hydraulic press brakes with the added benefits of lower energy costs, reduced maintenance, and improved control and precision.The APHS HYBRID models are particularly advantageous for operations looking to increase sustainability without compromising on bending power or quality.
Yes, press brakes are well-equipped to handle complex bending operations. They feature advanced control systems that enhance programmability and user-friendly operation, allowing for precise and intricate bends. The quality of tooling, including the punch and die set, also plays a critical role in achieving complex bends, ensuring accuracy and consistency in production.
The choice of tooling is critical in press brake operations as it directly impacts the bend's quality, the production speed, and the ability to perform complex bends. Tooling includes the punch and die set used in the bending process. High-quality tooling ensures accurate and consistent bends, reduces wear on the machine, and can be specifically designed for unique or complex bending tasks, increasing operational efficiency and output quality.
Press brakes are versatile machines capable of bending a variety of materials, including stainless steel, aluminium, and other metals, accommodating different thicknesses and specifications to meet diverse industrial needs.
When selecting a press brake, consider the type of bending operations required, the range of materials and thicknesses you'll be working with, the desired precision and speed, and the overall production volume. Also, evaluate the machine's control system, safety features, tooling compatibility, and the ability to integrate with your existing production workflow. Choosing a machine that aligns with your operational needs and future growth can maximize efficiency and productivity.
Regular maintenance for a press brake includes lubricating moving parts, checking hydraulic fluid levels, inspecting hoses and fittings for leaks, and ensuring the electrical components are in good working order. Tooling should be inspected for wear and damage, and the punch and die alignment should be checked to ensure consistent bending accuracy. Scheduled maintenance, along with immediate attention to any operational issues, helps prolong the life of brakepresses and maintain optimal performance.
