Precision press brake bending

CNC bending is where a flat laser-cut blank becomes a formed part. Our press brake is CNC-controlled, so every bend is positioned and angled to your drawing with repeatable accuracy. Whether you need a simple bracket with one bend or a complex enclosure with multiple folds, we set up the tooling, run a first-off sample, and check it before we run the batch.

Good bending is about more than just hitting the angle. It's about choosing the right tooling for the material and thickness, accounting for springback, and planning the bend sequence so the part doesn't collide with the machine on the second or third fold. That's the difference between a part that fits and a part that's scrap — and it's why we review every bending job before we start.

What we bend

Panels & Housings

Enclosures, covers, cabinets and equipment panels in mild steel, stainless and aluminium.

Brackets & Cleats

Mounting brackets, support cleats, angle brackets and custom fixings.

Profiles & Channels

Custom folded sections, channels, angles and edge trims.

Multi-bend Parts

Complex folded components with 3, 4 or more bends in sequence.

How we work

We receive your flat pattern (or we develop it from your 3D model), confirm the bend positions and angles, and select the appropriate punch and die. For each job, we run a first-off sample, measure the angles and dimensions against your drawing, and adjust the program if needed. Only after the first-off is approved do we run the full batch.

We account for material springback — the natural tendency of metal to partially return to its flat shape after bending. Different materials and thicknesses spring back differently, and our CNC press brake compensates for this in the program. The result is parts that hit your specified angle the first time, not after three or four trial bends.

Bending accuracy

  • Repeatability: CNC-controlled bending means part 1 and part 100 are identical. No hand-operated variation.
  • Tight tolerances: We hold bend positions and angles to tight tolerances, critical for parts that must assemble with other components.
  • Complex geometry: Multi-bend parts that would be impossible to hand-form are routine on a CNC press brake.
  • Material range: Mild steel, stainless 304/316, aluminium — each handled with the right tooling and bend sequence.
  • Integrated workflow: Laser-cut blanks go straight to the press brake, no handling or rework between processes.

Typical applications

We bend parts for shopfitters (trim, channels, brackets), equipment manufacturers (enclosures, panels, mounting plates), architectural fabricators (balustrade components, handrail brackets), and construction crews (base plates, cleats, support angles). If your part starts as a flat sheet and needs folds, we can bend it.

Materials we bend

We bend mild steel sheet and plate, stainless 304 and 316, and aluminium. Each material has different springback characteristics, and our press brake program compensates for each one. We know how much each material springs back, so the finished angle matches your drawing the first time.
