CNC BendingCNC Bending

CNC Bending is an industrial process that can deform a metal sheet by placing it into an axis and applying pressure. It does not affect to the thickness of the metal sheet. It give it more strength and stiffness.

Bending ProcessProcess

To apply it, we use mainly hydraulic machines with high tons of pressure capacity that bend the metal sheets giving them a new form. These machines are standard so the initial cost is low and it can be used for low production rates. If the bending is specific, it will have to use specific machines increasing the cost of the process and the production quantity requires.

During bending it produces changes into the component. When the pressure is on it, the metal is compressed on a side and extended on the other. But when pressure disappear these deforms do not persist because the metal has an elastic zone producing a return effect.

Why CNC?CNC

To minimize the elastic return and get good accuracy during bending, our bending machines equips the Numerical Control (CNC) that correct automatically the bending. Also the CNC assist to the operator, avoiding the human errors by showing the bending sequences.

In addition our simulation software let us test previously the correct tools and sequences guaranteeing the efficacy of the bending.
