A focus on punches: why using different tip radii?
In the wide range of press brake tools, you can find several punches with similar profiles and dimensions, but they all differ in one aspect: the dimensions of the punch tip radius.
Read more5 best practices to speed up tooling setup times.
Speed is a fundamental factor for productivity. For every minute that is not used in production, some money is lost.
Read moreReasons that might damage punches.
The previous article focused on the maximum capacity of punches. We mentioned that when tonnage exceeds the maximum allowable tonnage per meter of a tool, the tool gets damaged. Such damages can include deformations - already taken care of in the previous article - or breakage.
Read moreHow to determine the maximum capacity of punches.
The maximum load is the maximum allowable tonnage at which tools can be used without getting damaged. By "damages" we usually mean permanent deformation or breakage.
Read moreRelation between punch height and product dimensions.
The previous articles mentioned that the right punch shape to choose depends on the shape of the final product that the clients needs to form.
Read moreRelation between tool shape and U-shaped profile.
The previous articles were about how the tool shape determines the type of profile that we need to form. Therefore, before defining which tools are going to be used, it is useful to identify which shape the customer needs to obtain.
Read moreA focus on punches: the evolution of shapes.
The previous article focused on how important the shape of a press brake tool is in order to determine its strength and max. load, which is expressed in tons per meter (Ton/m).
Read moreStrength of press brake tools depending on the shape.
Let's continue talking about the strength of a high quality tool. In this article, we are going to focus on how strength can also be determined by the shape of the tools.
Read moreToughness of tools according to heat treatment.
Choosing the best bending tools for our needs is not simple. We have already mentioned how important it is to lean on high quality tools, with specific characteristics.
Read more3 parameters that define high-quality press brake tools.
In the bending industry, one of the most frequently asked questions is: how can we assess the quality of tools? In other words: which charac
