Owning press brakes is not the same as knowing how to bend
Anyone can buy a press brake. What decides whether your part comes out right is everything that happens before the punch comes down: the springback of the material, the inside radius you are actually going to end up with, the bend sequence that stops the part fouling the machine halfway through, and the flat pattern the blank was cut to in the first place.
We have been dealing with those four things for over 40 years, with one advantage: we cut the plate ourselves. When the flat pattern or the edge preparation does not agree with the bending that comes afterwards, we see it at the cutting stage — not at the press brake with the whole batch already nested and cut.
CNC press brakes of up to 140 tonnes and 3,000 mm of bending length, in carbon steel up to 22 mm thick. From a single one-off to runs of thousands.
Capabilities
What our CNC press brakes will take
Plain numbers, so you can tell in thirty seconds whether your part fits before you send us anything.
CNC control, batch after batch
The angle correction found on the first part is stored in the programme, so the setting does not drift halfway through a long run and nobody has to guess it again on the next order.
Force for thick plate
140 tonnes lets us take on heavy-gauge work that a lot of sheet metal shops have to turn down — the plate side of the trade, not just thin gauge folding.
One-offs and long runs
From a single replacement part to runs of thousands. Tooling changes are planned around the schedule, so a short run does not get priced as if it were a nuisance.
| Item | What you can count on |
|---|---|
| Maximum force | 140 tonnes |
| Maximum bending length | 3,000 mm |
| Maximum thickness in carbon steel | 22 mm |
| Everyday material | Carbon steel S235, S275, S355 |
| Other materials | Hardox, Strenx, stainless steel and aluminium, on request |
| Minimum quantity | No minimum order quantity: from one part |
| Tolerance | Whatever your drawing states, confirmed before we quote |
| Indicative lead time | Cutting and bending, 1-2 weeks |
The 22 mm and the 3,000 mm are independent limits: bending 22 mm across the full 3 metres is a very different proposition from bending 22 mm over 400 mm, because the force needed rises with the length of the bend. Send us the drawing and we will tell you straight away whether it fits.
Materials
Materials we bend
Carbon steel is what we do day in, day out, and it is where our tooling, our force and our experience are. Every grade behaves differently under the punch, so the force, the speed and the overbend are set per material rather than copied from the last job:
- Carbon steel (S235, S275, S355): from thin gauge up to 22 mm. Structural and industrial parts, which is the bulk of what leaves this shop.
- High-strength steels (Hardox, Strenx): on request. Bent with adapted inside radii so the outer fibre does not crack, and with more overbend because they recover far more angle.
- Stainless steel and aluminium: on request, with customer-supplied material.
Tell us the grade, the thickness and the inside radius you need and we will confirm what is feasible before anything gets cut. If a grade is not on that list, ask: the honest answer arrives faster than a guess.
The hard part
Where bending gets difficult
The four problems that send a part back from the customer, and how we deal with each of them.
Springback
Steel gives part of the angle back the moment the ram lifts, and the stronger the grade the more it gives back. An S355 does not come back like an S235, and a high-strength grade less still. You compensate by overbending, and how much is settled on the sample part, not read off a table.
Inside radius and cracking
If the radius is too tight for the thickness, the outer fibre opens up. On high-strength steel that means bending to an adapted radius and, where it matters, orienting the blank with respect to the rolling direction. If your drawing asks for a radius that is going to crack, we tell you before the plate is cut.
Bend sequence and access
On a part with several bends the order is not free: choose it badly and the part fouls the ram or the backgauge before the last bend goes in. We work the sequence out at quotation stage, which is the only moment when a small change to the design still costs you nothing.
The flat pattern comes from the cutting
The blank development depends on the radius and the thickness. Get it wrong and the part comes out short or long, and no press brake on earth will rescue it. Because we do both the cutting and the bending ourselves, the flat pattern is worked out once and proved on the first part.
Why work with us?
What you get by putting your bending here
One supplier, whole part
Bending sits alongside laser cutting, welding and machining, all in-house, so you can take delivery of a finished weldment instead of chasing three subcontractors and owning the gaps between them.
Certified quality system
ISO 9001:2015 certified by AENOR, registration ER-0002/2009, with IQNet recognition. Dimensional checks through the process and a dimensional report on request.
Lead times you can plan around
Cutting and bending normally runs 1-2 weeks; welded assemblies 2-3 weeks. Genuine emergencies in 24-48 hours on request. We would rather give you a date we can hold than the date you want to hear.
Technical input before you commit
We come back on radii, bend reliefs, flange lengths that will not clear the tooling and material choices that would cost you money. It is cheaper to change a drawing than to scrap a batch.
Well placed for the north
From Navarre we supply northern Spain and France, on 4,000 m² of production floor with more than 20 people and an overhead crane up to 5 tonnes for handling.
No minimum order quantity
From one part upwards, with payment at 30 days and a quotation back in under 24 working hours. A prototype is treated as the first part of a run, not as a favour.
Sectors
Who our bent parts end up with
We manufacture components to the customer's drawing. These are the bent parts that leave here most often:
- Automotive and commercial vehicle: brackets, angle plates, reinforcements and formed panels. This is our main sector: long runs where the angle has to repeat part after part, and where a drift that builds up gets paid for at assembly.
- Machinery and capital equipment: housings, frames, cowlings, guards and trays. Parts that get welded into an assembly afterwards, where the angle on each bend decides whether the assembly closes up at all.
- Energy and structural work: enclosures, ducting, formed sections and supports for photovoltaic structures. Long runs, where unit cost and how well the blanks nest on the plate are what count.
- Agriculture and livestock: hoppers, trailer panels, agricultural machinery components and farm equipment. Medium thicknesses and long bends.
- Civil works, quarrying and lifting: wear plates, buckets and guards. This is where Hardox and Strenx come in, on request, bent to adapted radii so the outer fibre does not crack.
How we work
How we run your bending job
Four steps, no surprises between the enquiry and the delivery note.
Enquiry and technical review
Send the drawing of the finished part in .dxf, .dwg, .step, .iges or .pdf with the angles and radii dimensioned. We check feasibility, flag anything that will not bend as drawn and come back with a quotation in under 24 working hours.
Flat pattern and CNC programming
We calculate the blank development, choose the punch and die, and set the bend sequence so the part clears the machine at every step. The blank is then nested for cutting with that sequence already decided.
Sample part, then the run
The first part is bent, measured and the angle corrected on the control. Once it is right the batch is released, with dimensional checks through production and an EN 10204 3.1 material certificate on request.
Packing and delivery
Parts are packed to suit your handling and delivered on the agreed date, with the paperwork you asked for. If the job carries on into welding or machining, it moves internally instead of onto a lorry.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about sheet metal bending
Our CNC press brakes take carbon steel up to 22 mm thick and lengths up to 3 metres, depending on the material and the angle required. For anything heavier we will look at feasibility case by case rather than turn it away on principle.
Mainly carbon steel — that is the speciality. Each material needs its own force and angle settings, which we programme into the press brake. High-strength steels, stainless steel and aluminium on request only, with customer-supplied material.
It depends on volume and complexity. For cut-and-bent parts the usual figure is 1 to 2 weeks from order confirmation; welded assemblies run to 2-3 weeks. Genuine emergencies can go through in 24-48 hours on request.
Yes. Prototypes and short runs as readily as volume production. There is no minimum order quantity: we will quote a single part, and it goes through the same sample-part check as a batch of a thousand.
That is the normal way we work. Laser cutting, manual and robotic welding, machining and assembly are all done in-house, so we can hand you the finished part or the complete welded assembly and take a supplier out of your chain.
We work to the tolerance stated on your drawing. Before releasing a run we bend a sample part, measure it and correct the angle on the press brake control, so the whole batch comes out to the same setting. If your drawing calls for a tolerance tighter than usual, say so in the enquiry: we will confirm whether it is achievable before quoting, rather than finding out with the plate already cut.
3,000 mm. Bear in mind that maximum thickness and maximum length are independent limits: bending 22 mm on a short part is not the same job as bending 22 mm along the full 3 metres, because the force needed rises with the length of the bend. Send us the drawing and we will tell you whether your part fits.
On request. High-strength steels are bent to more open inside radii and with more overbend, because they recover far more angle and because a tight radius opens the outer fibre. Where it matters, the blank also has to be oriented with respect to the rolling direction. Tell us grade, thickness and radius and we will confirm feasibility.
We work it out. All we need is the drawing of the finished part — in .dxf, .dwg, .step, .iges or .pdf — with the angles and radii dimensioned. The flat pattern depends on the radius and the thickness, so we would rather calculate it here and prove it on the first part: if the file arrives with it wrong, the part comes out short or long and no press brake will rescue it. If you already have your own development and want it respected, tell us.
