PRESS BRAKES & SHEET METAL EQUIPMENT

Equipment Selected for the Production Requirement.

AXIFORM reviews press brakes and related sheet metal equipment against the part, bending application and production requirement.

PRODUCTION APPLICATION

Start with What the Equipment Needs to Produce.

Part shape, bending requirements, material, production volume and workflow help define the equipment requirement.

EQUIPMENT SELECTION

Press brakes and related equipment are evaluated according to the production task they need to perform.

Press brakes are evaluated against the bending task, required production capacity and tooling configuration.

Related sheet metal equipment is considered where it supports a defined production task or workflow.

EQUIPMENT EVALUATION

Equipment evaluation considers the bending task, required capacity, tooling and production workflow together.

Part shape and bending requirements define the production task the equipment must perform.

Part scale and production requirements define the capacity that needs to be considered.

Tooling must match the bend requirement and the equipment being evaluated.

Production handling and workflow define how the equipment needs to operate within the production process.

TOOLING & BENDING

Equipment, tooling and bending requirements must be matched to the intended production result.
