types of press tools

There are many different press brake but one of the most common is known as simple press tooling. Such tool is used to form simple cuts and shapes, such as punching holes into metal sheets or cutting out simple designs. This makes simple press tooling very helpful as it can perform tasks quickly and accurately.

How Does a Simple Press Tool Work? · Simple press tools work by taking a flat metal sheet and placing them between two plates. You cut a specific hole or shape into the top plate. The top plate here pushes down and cuts through the metal sheet underneath. This is a very fast process and enables factories to produce many products at once. Due to this speed, a basic press tool is an excellent solution for repeated production of the same parts.

How to Combine Cuts and Punches for Efficiency

In the manufacture of press products it is extremely important to be smart and take into account efficiency. Efficiency is completing the task in the best manner, using the least time and resources possible. Use one tool to do a majority of cuts and punches to save a lot of time and money in the manufacturing process.

For example, you need to make a metal bracket. There is also several holes on this bracket and a very specific shape needed to be made. In case where there are so many variety of all types of hole, shapes, we can develop one particular relevant tool that has all above mentioned features combined into one tool instead of designing different tools for each hole shapes. So you’re able to quickly complete the process of making the bracket, without having to switch out tools multiple times. This saves time and helps streamline the production process.
