A variety of press brake are now available in the market. However, they are mainly categorized as mechanical or hydraulic press brake, depending on the means of applying force. With the advancement in technology, the CNC press brakes come into being. CNC press brake has the capability to deliver force in a limited vertical space in order to punch or bend the metal sheet.

How does CNC press brake work?
How to calibrate CNC press brake?
CNC press brake is the most accurate and precise type of press brake. CNC press brake is a modernized and more accurate version of the hydraulic press brake that is controlled by computers.
The processing speed of CNC press brake is fast. The corner processing surface is beautiful with high strength.
CNC press brake transforms manual welding into fully automatic machine operation, improving quality and efficiency, CNC press brake reduces labor costs and shortens the production cycle of products.
CNC press brake is a new large-scale machine. The high precision is favored by many people. It can adopt flexible operation mode, which can be linked with two machines to solve the problem of processing long plates.
CNC press brake be operated and processed by a single machine to effectively improve the use. It reduces energy consumption. The compensation is automatically adjusted by the numerical control system, which is convenient and accurate.
A CNC press brake works quite similarly to a hydraulic press brake. However, the difference is that CNC press brake is controlled by slider stroke and backgauge. All you have to do is input the number of pieces that require bending along with the bending angle, getting the job done with accuracy.
CNC press brake has a ram fitted with a punch that forces the material being worked into a die. The material is formed into an angle corresponding to the angle of the die or the depth the punch forces it into the die.
CNC press brakes can be pre-programmed to bend the sheet metal through many various bends completing one part at a time. It uses a V blade to push on the sheet metal with pressure against a die.
The CNC press brake adopts electromagnetic force clamping so that the pressing plate can be made into a variety of workpiece with side walls. The operation is simple.
Metrology personnel required to calibrate CNC press brake need to open the cover of the saw that the optical components can be adjusted on the worktable, the spindle and the independent tripod. The time that spatial calibration process needs depends on the size of the CNC press brake. If the part is within the tolerance range by the three-coordinate surveying and mapping machine, the spatial calibration is not so necessary.
The trajectory of the calibrated CNC press brake is not a straight line but lateral movement. Traditional correlators cannot do this, except for the single-aperture laser correlation instrument.
When testing a CNC press brake, use a moderate probe to measure the proportion of the drawing part. The specified spatial error can be listed as an error table or offset table. The software can correct the coordinates of the probe.

What is the trend of CNC press brake?
The CNC press brake is controlled by a closed-loop control system and a grating ruler synchronously with the main cylinders on both sides. which are independently restricted by the CNC. CNC press brake has accurate feedback data to ensure accurate operation of the slider.
CNC press brake adopts the hydraulic convex automatic compensation system to deal with the deformation of the slider during the bending process. The compensation is automatically adjusted by the numerical control system, which is convenient and accurate.
CNC press brake makes use of a functional backgauge mechanism, choosing to control multiple backgauge shafts. The parts in the backgauge, such as guide rails, lead screws and bearings, all use imported original parts to ensure the accuracy of the backgauge.
The CNC press brake adopts an integral-welded structure, which is convenient for transportation and processing.
The processing method adopted by the CNC press brake is mainly controlled by the direct control of the CNC programming. The processed sheet material has strict requirements. But the deformation generated by the CNC press brake in the work cannot be effectively compensated. Therefore, the elastic deformation of various mechanical structural components is controlled within the smallest possible limit to achieve the required machining accuracy and surface quality.
To effectively improve the rigidity of the spindle of the CNC press brake, it is necessary not only to adopt a three-support structure, but also to use double-row short cylindrical roller bearings and angular contact centripetal thrust bearings with good rigidity. It is to reduce the deformation of spindle.
To improve the rigidity of some large parts in the CNC press brake, it is recommended to use a machine bed with a closed interface and adopt a hydraulic balance to reduce the deformation caused by the position change of the moving parts. In addition, the contact stiffness between the various parts of the CNC press brake and the improvement of the load-bearing capacity are also important.
Surrounding the requirements of quality, efficiency and technological change, CNC press brake has undergone profound changes at the technical level. The functions of CNC press brake are constantly enriched, including the process concentration and composite technology. The CNC press brakes have new developments in structural layout and the application. CNC press brake is open, intelligent, networked, high-speed and high-precision. Its purpose is to improve production efficiency and accuracy, ensure quality and maximize benefits.
The constant pursuit of high quality and high efficiency is the eternal theme and goal of the CNC press brake industry. It is power to promote the development of the process equipment. Process requirements and changes are the basis and foundation for the development, innovation and change of CNC press brake technology.
Domestic CNC press brakes have gone through a long history of 50 years of development. It has been developed rapidly in the past 10 years, especially received the attention of the government and set up major technical research projects.
