Sheet Metal
Forming
we offer precision metal forming solutions using state-of-the-art press brake and fabrication equipment. Our extensive in-house capabilities allow us to bend, shape and form a wide range of metal components with exceptional accuracy and repeatability.
Advanced Press Brake Forming
Our forming department is equipped with a range of high-capacity press brakes, allowing us to handle varying sheet sizes and thicknesses across a variety of metals. These machines apply controlled force to create precise bends and angles in sheet metal, using CNC-controlled back gauges and high-tonnage presses to ensure repeatable results.
Key Equipment Includes:
Amada HFE3i Press Brake
Our latest high-precision press brake investment, designed for speed and accuracy. With automated angle control and rapid tool setup, it allows us to form complex parts right the first time, reducing waste and ensuring dependable turnaround.
Dener 120-Ton Press Brake (3000mm Bed)
A powerful and reliable machine ideal for handling longer or thicker sheets, delivering high accuracy across demanding forming tasks.
Promecam 2500mm Press Brake
A versatile and proven performer, suitable for general-purpose bending across a variety of materials and applications.
Safan 1250mm Press Brake
Perfect for smaller or more intricate parts requiring fast setup and precision forming.
Each machine is equipped with precision tooling and CNC control, enabling our skilled operators to deliver consistent bends and complex geometries to exact specifications.
Additional In-House Fabrication Capabilities
To support our metal forming service, we also operate a range of complementary equipment:
- Geka 45 Minicrop Ironworker – Ideal for cropping, punching and general steel fabrication tasks.
- Corner Notching with Amada Equipment – For precise removal of sheet metal corners, facilitating clean joint formation and folding.
- Guillotining with Safan 2500 x 4mm – Clean and straight cutting of sheet metal before forming.
- Strippit Punching – CNC turret punching for creating holes, slots or complex patterns before forming stages.
This comprehensive setup means we can manage entire forming workflows from raw sheet to finished component.
