Metal Bending - Up to 21 Feet Wide Brake Forming

Metal bending is the process of deforming sheet metal to various angles. Sheet metal is forced by a press brake between an upper and lower tool. The punch is the upper component and the die is the lower tool. The press brake is what manipulates the punch and die to apply a bending force which is what bends the part.
