    5 Signs It's Time to Upgrade Your Old Press Brake Machine Apr 24, 2025
    1. Decreased Productivity: If you find that your old press brake machine is no longer able to meet your production demands and you're experiencing decreased productivity, it may be time to upgrade. Newer machines often feature advanced automation, faster cycle times, and improved accuracy, all of which can significantly increase productivity. 2. Outdated Technology: As technology advances, older press brake machines may become outdated. Newer machines are equipped with the latest features and capabilities, such as CNC controls, touch screen interfaces, and advanced software integration. Upgrading to a machine with more advanced technology can improve your workflow, programming capabilities, and overall efficiency. 3. High Maintenance and Repair Costs: If you find that you're frequently spending money on maintenance and expensive repairs for your old press brake machine, it might be more cost-effective to invest in a new one. Newer machines are often more reliable and require less frequent maintenance, reducing downtime and repair costs. 4. Safety Concerns: Safety should be a top priority in any manufacturing environment. Older press brake machines may lack the safety features and modern safeguards found in newer models. Investing in a machine with advanced safety features, such as laser guards, light curtains, or dual palm controls, can help protect your operators and ensure compliance with safety regulations. 5. Limited Functionality: If your current press brake machine is unable to perform certain bending applications or lacks the necessary features for your evolving production needs, it may be time to consider an upgrade. Newer machines often offer a wider range of bending capabilities, such as multi-axis backgauge systems, automatic tool changers, and adaptive bending technologies, allowing you to tackle complex jobs with ease. Ultimately, the decision to upgrade your old press brake machine will depend on your specific requirements, budget, and long-term goals. Consulting with industry experts and evaluating the benefits of newer technology can help you determine if upgrading is the right choice for your business. If you have more ideas, please contact us!

    The bending machine is the most expensive to install. Analytical sketch The operator must be fully familiar with its components. If the part has already been manufactured, it may not be necessary to modify the design, but ultimately the operator must understand that: Material type and density. Flange dimensions and tolerances. Necessary Angle and Angle tolerances. Angle inside the arc. Blank size. In the absence of any of these data, supervisors will need to make educated assumptions. The part is now at risk of being inaccurate. An important initial step is to obtain detailed drawings.   Tool selection The sketch is used to select the tool. There are several options for you to choose from: air bending, bottom bending, coinage or custom use. For example, if the layout requires a bottom tool and the internal arc length is equal to the metal density. For that particular type of machine, you should use a tool with at least the same precision as the tool manufacturer recommends. No matter how accurately the bending machine is installed, worn equipment will not produce the right product.   Calculated tonnage It should be easy for the operator to estimate the tonnage required. Regarding air bending, there seem to be tonnage charts available. A reasonable calculation for bottom bending is nearly three times the air bending tonnage. Stamping requires about eight times the bending tonnage of air. The supplier will provide tonnage estimates for custom application tools. Do not attempt to bend until you have determined the tonnage required and compared it to the tonnage provided.   Select a bending machine If you have only one press in your workshop, you can skip this step. If you have more than one press, make sure that the press you choose is best for the task at hand. The center of the press has a tonnage per inch limit. Multiply the length of the side panels by 0.6 to find the tonnage per inch of the press, then start dividing your estimate by the tonnage of the machine. For items 12 inches wide, the maximum tonnage of the machine center should not be higher than 25 tons. 25 tons over 12 inches will produce compression overload. This is a bad decision because it could permanently damage the ram. When using tonnage control (manual and CNC), be sure to use only the amount required for the torsion parts and do not exceed the tonnage threshold in the middle. Also, keep in mind that overload of the bender is only allowed when the bottom is compacted, cast, or air bent with dedicated tools. Select tool location If the required tonnage exceeds the concentrated weight limit at the center of the system, you may be able to complete the task off-center. However, you should first verify that the bender supplier allows eccentric loading to proceed. Eccentric work is acceptable as long as you follow the manufacturer's guidelines.
