Press brake tooling (punch and die set) is designed for hydraulic and CNC press brake machines used in sheet metal bending and forming processes. It controls bending angle, radius, and forming accuracy in industrial metal fabrication applications. The tooling is suitable for both standard bending and complex forming operations. Different material grades such as 42CrMo and T7 are used to meet various working load and production requirements.

In sheet metal bending processes, tool selection directly affects:

• Bending angle accuracy
• Surface marking condition
• Forming stability
• Tool service life

Incorrect tooling selection may lead to angle deviation or inconsistent forming results during production.

Upper Punch Material:

• T7 / T7A
• C70W / C70E2V

Lower Die Material:

• 42CrMo / 42CrMo4 / SCM440 / 4140

42CrMo Tooling:

• Quenching and tempering
• Oil quenching at 860°C
• Tempering at 390°C

T7 Tooling:

• Surface edge hardening
• Controlled hardness distribution
• Balanced wear resistance and toughness

• Precision grinding tolerance up to ±0.01mm
• Suitable for press brake machines from 40T to 3000T
• Stable forming performance for repeated production
• Standard and custom profiles available
• Compatible with industrial sheet metal bending lines
• Long service cycle under continuous operation conditions

Compatible with major international press brake machine systems used in industrial sheet metal processing. Tooling interface can be customized based on machine specifications.

Press brake tooling works through mechanical force transmission:

1. Punch applies downward force
2. Sheet metal is positioned on the die
3. Hydraulic system generates bending force
4. Die opening determines bending angle and radius
5. Material is formed into required shape

Different tooling profiles are used for different bending geometries.

Tooling selection depends on:

• Sheet thickness and material type
• Required bending angle and radius
• Machine tonnage (40T-3000T range)
• Production volume and durability requirement

Recommended selection:

• T7 → general bending applications
• 42CrMo → high strength / long cycle production

• Steel structure fabrication
• Sheet metal processing industry
• Electrical cabinet manufacturing
• Light pole production (conical forming)
• Industrial metal fabrication workshops

• OEM production based on drawings
• ODM structural design support
• Custom bending profile tooling available
• Special forming requirements supported
• Batch production for industrial users

• CNC precision grinding production
• Heat treatment controlled process system
• Full inspection before shipment
• Serial number traceability system
• Consistent tooling geometry control

It is used for bending and forming sheet metal on hydraulic and CNC press brake machines.

42CrMo is used for high strength and long-life applications, while T7 is used for general bending conditions.

Yes, tooling can be customized based on drawings, samples, or machine requirements.

It is compatible with most standard press brake machines from 40T to 3000T.
