2. FOR YOUR INSPIRATION!
Fabricating jobs often require the
bending of parts. Typically,
fabricators use press brakes for
these operations.
Sometimes using a press brake
seems like overkill, especially on
smaller parts. A press brake adds
a secondary operation and cost to
a job that really may not need it.
Bending parts by hand could help
lower manufacturing costs and
speed time to delivery.
This folio shows actual customer
parts bending solutions that were
developed by Mate. We hope
they inspire you to do more with
your punch press.
