Understanding the Press Brake: Key to Accurate Metal Forming

February 6th, 2025 | Stratique Web | Tags:

Metal forming is a vital process in the fabrication industry, and the press brake is a fundamental tool in achieving accurate bends and folds. At MPJ Fabrications, our advanced press work capabilities ensure precision and reliability for a range of projects.

What is a Press Brake?

A press brake is a machine used to bend and shape sheet metal with exceptional accuracy. Using force and specialised tooling, it creates clean bends that are integral to the structural and aesthetic requirements of many designs.
