PLATE BENDING<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Longero has a range of press brakes from 90 to 400 tons and from 8\u2019 to 16\u2019 9″  long.  Thickness of materials bent range from 16ga up to 2\u201d thick. Typical materials include carbon steels (A-36, AR400, A516gr70, A572, etc.) stainless steels (304SS, 316SS) and aluminum as well as other more exotic materials. When bending aluminum, care should be taken to choose the correct grade and temper which will accommodate the type of bend desired. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The radii desired are also an important consideration when detailing bent materials. With thin materials the bend radii achieved can be as small as .0625\u201d. When step braking thicker materials, very large radii can be achieved.  Recommended bottom die openings are normally 8x the thickness of the material being bent. Typical radii achieved on a typical air bend (non bottoming bend) are .156\u201d x the bottom die opening. Longero has bottom openings from .500\u201d to 14\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a myriad of projects which require bent plates.\u00a0 Please\u00a0contact one of our Project Managers<\/a>\u00a0to discuss your requirements.\u00a0 Tangent material is sometimes required to complete the bend on certain parts.\u00a0 It should be specified who will remove the tangent material.\u00a0 If beveling or other weld preparation is required, that too should be discussed in the quoting stage of the project.\u00a0\u00a0 Finally, if parts are to be fit or tacked prior to delivery, that too should be agreed upon prior to placing an order.\u00a0 Tolerances for parts on the brakes are usually +\/- .0625\u201d and 1 degree.\u00a0 Step broke cylinders are usually held to 1% of roundness.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
