• Analysis and Solutions to Common Malfunctions of CNC Bending Machines

  May 25, 2025

  Analysis and Solutions to Common Malfunctions of CNC Bending Machines       一、Mechanical bending machine   Fault 1: The guiding gap between the slider and the guide rail is too large, causing abnormal noise.   This type of malfunction is due to the prolonged use of the guide rail, which has been worn and caused an increase in clearance. It is necessary to check the degree of wear of the guide rail pressure plate, and determine whether to replace the guide rail pressure plate and readjust it to meet the required clearance based on the degree of wear.   Fault 2: Rear gear material transmission failure. The failure of the rear gear material transmission is due to the detachment of the key strip between the transmission shaft and the synchronous belt pulley or t...

• Bending processes and methods

  May 25, 2025

  Bending processes and methods   Most bending parts are produced using air bending, bottom bending, or folding and hemming. These methods and processes all work in the same way: a punch presses the workpiece into the lower tool of the die. That is why the bending machines which carry out these methods and processes are called press brakes.     Air bending    With air bending, the punch presses the workpiece into the die without pressing it against the walls. Whilst the punch moves down, the sides of the workpiece bend up, which creates the angle. The deeper the punch presses the workpiece into the die, the more acute the angle. A clearance remains between the punch and the die. Air bending is referred to as a path-dependent method, as each angle requires a defined...

• Why does the CNC press brake need to add a compensation system

  Jul 04, 2025

  CNC press brake is an important equipment in sheet metal processing, and its working accuracy directly affects the bending accuracy of the workpiece. Why add a compensation system to the CNC press brake during the workpiece bending process, as the maximum force is exerted on both ends of the slider and the reaction force during sheet bending causes concave deformation on the lower surface of the slider.   Why does the CNC press brake need to add a compensation system   In order to eliminate the adverse effects of slider deformation, it is necessary to compensate for the deflection deformation of the slider. The usual compensation methods include hydraulic compensation and mechanical compensation, both of which generate upward elastic deformation in the middle of the Com...
