Bending service

Sheet metal bending on a CNC press brake

We bend sheet up to 12 mm thick and up to 2,500 mm long on a 170-tonne CNC press brake, into L, U, Z and C profiles and more complex shapes. The CNC control sets the backgauge and bending depth, so the hundredth bend is the same as the first. We can also laser-cut the sheet, so you get a finished part.

Process

How CNC press brake bending works

Bending a profile on the CNC press brake
CNC press brake

The same angle on every part

We enter the angles and the bend sequence into the press brake's CNC control, and the backgauge positions the sheet in exactly the same place every time. That is why every part in a run is the same, with no measuring or correction after bending.

What this means for you: a bent part has fewer welds than one assembled from several pieces, so it has fewer internal stresses and fewer places where it can crack. Bending is also a fast and economical way to turn flat sheet into a rigid part.

Applications

What we bend

L, U, Z and C profiles

Angles, channels and custom profiles, in lengths up to 2,500 mm.

Housings and brackets

Housings, brackets, supports and covers with several bends, instead of welding them from several pieces.

Parts with complex geometry

Parts with several angles and bends in different directions, to your drawing.

FAQ

Questions about sheet metal bending

How thick a sheet can you bend?

Up to 12 mm thick and up to 2,500 mm long, with a force of 170 tonnes. For harder materials and longer bends, we confirm the maximum thickness based on the drawing.

Can you also cut the sheet before bending?

Yes. We cut the flat pattern on the CNC laser or the waterjet and then bend it, so you get a finished part from a single workshop.

What should I send for a quotation?

A drawing of the finished part with dimensions and angles, the material, the sheet thickness and the quantity. If you have a DXF of the flat pattern, send that too.

Do you make one-off parts?

Yes, we make both one-offs and production runs. We quote the price and lead time based on the drawing and quantity.
