Custom Metal Bending Services
Laserfab offers metal bending services as one of our primary metal fabrication capabilities. With advanced, high-capacity press technology, we can provide custom metal bending services for an array of applications and industries. Even better, the quality of our commercial metal bending services means we can provide quality results for our clients every time, delivering on any special requirements and detail work.
The Laserfab Metal Bending Process
Commercial metal bending services are processes where sheet metal is bent to an angle using a hydraulic, pneumatic or electric press. The sheet is placed between a punch and a die, and a press pushes the punch and die together, folding the sheet of metal into the desired configuration. It can be used to form flanges, curls, corrugations and other geometries.
As a full-service fabrication company, Laserfab includes custom metal bending as one of our specialties. Our highly trained staff takes your prototypes and designs and brings them to life with a high-capacity press that can bend metal into nearly any configuration possible. This way, your parts are formed accurately, with minimal distortion and within your time constraints.
Laserfab Metal Bending Technology
Laserfab's state-of-the-art TRUMPF TruBend press brake improves bending capabilities by increasing production efficiency and flexibility while delivering premium workpiece quality from the first to the last bending operation.
Our TRUMPF 5170 and 5320 TruBend press brakes offer many benefits:
- Six-axis back gauge provides solutions for even the most complex bending geometries.
- Efficient volume production as well as small lot size production.
- Press force of 353 tons with bending lengths up to 14 feet.
- Processing of unusually large or thick sheets, as well as long bends with tight angles.
- Highly efficient bending, versatility and increased flexibility in production.
- Time-saving touchscreen control, interactive interfaces and set up plans that can be drawn in minutes. It also offers bending programs with 3D simulations of the bending process.
