Quick-Turn Bending Service

Bending Is At The Heart of Everything We Do

Our Diamond Bend  135-ton servo-hydraulic press brake produces super-accurate results using precision tooling, two 4-axis CNC back gages and smart bending software.

The visual operator support system improves productivity and reduces bending defects by simplifying brake operations.

The system includes a Lazer Safe gaging system enables the operator to achieve very precise part location necessary for delicate bends. The system uses optical imaging together with knowledge of the tool and part geometries to ensure operator safety.

We have several mechanical brakes that utilize traditional tooling, simple CNC back gages and light curtains for operator protection.   These old but well-maintained machines are less precise but much faster, especially when used with specialized tooling that makes multiple bends at once.

How Do You Get Your Part Formed?

Most customers supply a dimensioned print showing their final part after forming.

We will promptly return a quote upon receiving your request.

We will use your print to model the part in 3D CAD and then process it with software that accounts for the bends and “unfolds” the part into a flat blank that can be cut on the laser which makes it very convenient to have both laser cutting and bending processes in house. 

How Long Does it Take?

Simple parts are processed quickly, usually within three business days. We have a wide selection of tooling and the bending software makes it feasible to produce single-part quantities when necessary.

We will quote a lead time for large quantities, complex parts requiring specialized tooling or development of unconventional bending practices.

Details for Part Designers

Consistent bending requires careful design.  We can unfold, cut and bend parts perfectly on the first try when standard bending guidelines are observed.   We can provide simple design guidelines and advice to ensure your parts can be bent consistently. 

Unconventional bends require special effort.   Bends that are too sharp can stretch or tear the material and require excessive bending force that can damage tooling.  Achieving a large bend radius can require special tooling or multiple hits.  We will accept these parts but special tooling or longer lead times may be required.

We will work with you to design your part for efficient production.
