Bending plate after laser cutting is where repeatability is won or lost. Our press brakes use modern controls that generate the bend program automatically and guide the operator through die placement and bend order, which takes a large source of human error out of the process.
Programs are saved, so a reorder six months later forms exactly the way the first article did. Tooling is kept new and maintained for the same reason — consistency over time is the whole point.
Submit a 3D CAD file rather than a flat pattern where you can. Model with the correct k-factor and bend radius and the flat pattern we derive will match the formed part; our published chart lists the values to use.
Send a 3D model in Parasolid, STEP or IGES for the fastest quote.
