Something you should know about press brake

Hydraulic press brakes are more flexible and have a higher capacity than mechanical ones because hydraulic brakes are controlled through fluid pressure to a piston. The use of pressurized fluid allows you to program different strokes and speeds within a stroke as needed. Depending on the cylinder length, stroke lengths up to 250 cm or 100 in can be easily obtained in hydraulic press brakes. The number of strokes can be as high as 600 per minute, as it is in the case of a high-speed blanking operation.

Something you should know about press brake 1

You have three types to choose from: conventional, NC, and CNC. In conventional machines, the stroke length and speed are manually adjusted, which means that the operation is based on the operator's experience and knowledge. In NC machines, a program is feed through the NC controllers, which are fitted to the hydraulic press brake. These programs control the machine parameters. NC machines feature speedy stroke cycles for all jobs as well as a reduced setup time. Therefore they are extremely well suited for this kind of repetitious job. In CNC machines, the computer fed program exclusively operates the hydraulic press brake. Bulk pressing operations are possible with these hydraulic press brakes by changing the parameters of the program on the computer.

The number of rotating components is minimized on the hydraulic press brake, resulting in less need for maintenance. The machine has hydraulic fluid, which acts as a lubricant, circulating through it. Because the fluid keeps the machine continually lubricated, there is less wear on the components; this means less time and money spent on maintenance. The welded steel frame provides strength and rigidity, reducing vibration. You'll find modern hydraulic press brakes much quieter and easier to adjust.

The piston, cylinder, and guide ways are the only sliding parts of a hydraulic press brake. In addition, wear-and-tear resistant materials are used in hydraulic press brakes. Lubrication also helps reduce the damage.

Adjustable slanting wedges are installed on top of the hydraulic press brake. Manually controlling the accuracy of the job to be pressed is simplified by the ability to adjust these wedges. It is possible to adjust the piston stroke by utilizing the electric motor by the hand wheel. The indicator shows the length of the stroke.

Safety guards on the hydraulic press brake mean operators don't have to worry about safety issues. Hydraulic press brakes are in compliance with safety regulations at almost any machine shop and factory since they have a high capacity and can be adjusted easily.

Fiber Laser Cutting Machine

Nowadays laser cutting machine is more and more widely used, as it is with high speed, high precision and automation. It can save manpower and improve production efficiency.  The laser is shot from laser generator, through optical system, focus to high power and density laser beam. The beam shoots on surface of workpiece and makes it reach melting point or boiling point, at the same time, the high pressure gas which is on the same axis with laser beam blow the melting or pneumatolytic metal away. That is the basic reason of laser cutting. According to the laser generator, there are two types – CO2 type & fiber type. The frequency of the CO2 laser requires higher wattage of lasers to penetrate through metals. CO2 laser systems are best suited to cutting wood, acrylic, plastic, and fabric.  Fiber laser cutting machine  is much more energy saving. In the situation that reaches same performance, whole fiber cutting can save around 70% energy than CO2 type. The wattage can...

6mm Hydraulic Shearing Machine With Estun E21s

6mm is a common thickness in sheet metal manufacturing. 6mm  hydraulic shears  is also a popular size in shearing machine. GLDMA can offer 6mm*2500mm, 6mm-3200mm, 6mm*4000mm, 6*5000mm different sizes of worktable, to satisfy variety of plate cutting demands. GLDMA Q12K series swing shearing is standard with Estun E21s system, which can control backgauge and the ordinary motor or frequency converter. Finished parts count and 40 program store functions can support common cutting task much more continuous, so that improve daily producing efficiency and save labor cost. There are also other advanced  shearing machine controller  to choose, like Estun E200ps, Delem DAC 310s. E200ps can realize servo control on X axis (backgauge), the cutting speed and precision are in a higher level. DAC 310s is with control of blade clearance, and the program storage is improved to 100 steps each. Client can choose the suitable model based on their own requirement and budget. 6mm hydra...
