What is Press Brake Sheet Metal Bending?
CNC Sheet Cutting and Sheet Bending are laser cutting processes widely used in many areas of the industrial sector and hold great importance. Cutting and bending processes for sheets in various sizes and dimensions can be performed. Aktif Lazer offers you the products you desire with zero error by making millimetric cuts with the latest technology CNC machines used in its structure. In productions made with CNC cutting, manufacturing errors are minimal as the processes are executed with the utmost precision using the codes provided to CNC machines, ensuring error-free production through controlled systems.
This bending process, also known as CNC Press Brake Bending, shapes sheet metal material under high pressure and pressing to achieve the desired form. The CNC press brake bending process is carried out by adding codes to the CNC machines (such as the material type, bending speed, bending angle, number of parts to be made, and general material information).
CNC sheet cutting and CNC bending are done quickly and easily using computerized technologies. Considering today's conditions, the manual bending and cutting of sheet metal materials is quite difficult and dangerous. To eliminate this danger, a method was developed to cut and bend all the products needed by light and heavy industry using codes, known as CNC sheet cutting and bending.
Applications of Press Brake Bending
Sheet cutting and bending have a wide range of uses. They are particularly common in the industrial and manufacturing sectors for applications such as:
- Automotive panels
- Aircraft bodies
- Metal artwork
- Furniture
- Metal containers
- Other various sheet metal shaping applications
- Marine engineering
- Mechanical manufacturing
- Steel fabrication
- Construction
- Automotive engineering
- Sign making
- General construction
- Aerospace engineering
- Spare parts
- Cabinet manufacturing
- Pipe production
- Panel manufacturing
- Kitchenware
Press brake machines consist of upper and lower sections. The upper part holds the punch, while the lower part contains a matching die or mold. When the sections move together, the sheet metal is bent into a predetermined shape.
Whatever your sheet metal production project may be, Aktif Lazer has a solution for you. Our resources are unlimited to provide you with the best service in the shortest time. Our experienced press brake operators can produce molds with simple or intricate bends, create boxes and pan shapes, and even manufacture containers and domes.
As Aktif Lazer, we have a large manufacturing facility capable of mass production. Laser cutting and CNC sheet cutting and bending processes can be performed in the desired dimensions.
All you need to do is contact us for sheet cutting and bending prices. The sheet cutting and bending prices vary depending on the size, type, and complexity of the processing required for the products to be cut and bent.

What Are Press Brake Bending Machines?
Sheet cutting and bending machines come in various forms. Their purpose is to perform different types of cutting and bending processes easily, quickly, and with zero errors. Press brake machines are manufactured in different tonnages and include many functional components, such as lower mold, upper mold, hydraulic axes, and numerical control unit, which constitute the components of sheet cutting machines.
- Upper mold = male mold
- Lower mold = female mold
These are called. In the system, V-shaped male and female molds allow sheet materials to be bent into the desired form.
Here are some examples of these machines:
- Roller sheet bending
- Conical sheet bending
- Flat bar bending
- Pipe bending
- Profile bending
CNC sheet bending and cutting machines can cut and bend up to 16mm thickness. The sheet/plate cutting processes are performed with great precision, producing the most suitable profiles, pipes, etc., for your projects.
| 1mm sheet cutting | 2mm sheet cutting | 3mm sheet cutting | 4mm sheet cutting | 5mm sheet cutting | 6mm sheet cutting | 7mm sheet cutting | 8mm sheet cutting |
| 9mm sheet cutting | 10mm sheet cutting | 11mm sheet cutting | 12mm sheet cutting | 13mm sheet cutting | 14mm sheet cutting | 15mm sheet cutting | 16mm sheet cutting |
In addition to sheet cutting and sheet bending, we also provide painting and welding processes for the parts cut or bent as per your request. During the painting stage, we use electrostatic powder coating to achieve the highest surface quality, offering you durable sheets that can be used for many years.
What Are the Advantages of Press Brake Bending?
CNC press brake machines offer numerous advantages, such as:
- The ability to perform multiple sheet cutting and bending operations simultaneously (mass production)
- Controllable bending speeds
- Zero-error operation
- Ease of measurement determination via machine control panels
- Adjustable bending sequence
- Capability to perform sheet cutting and bending operations in various sizes
As you can see, CNC press brake bending is a highly advantageous manufacturing method. Based on your requirements, CNC sheet cutting and bending processes can be carried out using the latest technology machines with Aktif Lazer assurance.
