Press brake
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A press brake is a machine used for bending sheet metal and metal plate, most commonly sheet metal.[1] It forms predetermined bends by clamping the workpiece between a matching top tool and bottom die.[2]
Typically, two C-frames form the sides of the press brake, connected to a table at the bottom and on a movable beam at the top. The bottom tool is mounted on the table, with the top tool mounted on the upper beam.
