NC Hydraulic Press Brakes

Advantages of NC hydraulic press brakes

• The best option for metal working operations at lower cost than other hydraulic press brake machinery
• Great accuracy due to forceful gear wheel balance shaft keeping cylinder parallel
• Long lasting durability
• Can automatically raise itself when the footswitch is released, making it more safe
• Low noise and smooth operation due to its efficient build
• Maintenance costs are low

Types of work NC hydraulic press brake is suitable for

The NC hydraulic press brake is used to bend sheet metal that has applications in a range of manufacturing industries. These sheet metals are used to produce vehicles, home appliances, heavy metals and many functional things used in the home. 

Other industries which utilise the NC press brake are: 

• Transportation industry
• Machinery 
• Ship building 
• Aviation
• Power generation industry 
• Automobile industry
• Metallurgy 
• Military 
• Petroleum machinery 
• Agricultural machinery 

Things to consider when purchasing a NC hydraulic press brake

When purchasing a NC hydraulic press brake, you should consider how often it will be used as it cannot operate constantly like the CNC press brake. If you don’t require high accuracy and precision with sheet metal bending, the NC press brake is a suitable and cost effective option. However, if you need to perform accurate and complex jobs, you should invest in a CNC hydraulic press brake instead. 

Difference between NC hydraulic press brake and CNC press brake

• The NC hydraulic press brake machine operates a bit slower than the CNC  hydraulic press brake
• If an error occurs with the NC hydraulic press brake, debugging and modifying more difficult than with the CNC hydraulic press brake
• The NC hydraulic press brake machine requires a more skilled operator than the CNC press brake
• NC hydraulic press brake cannot run 24/7 whereas the CNC hydraulic press brake can
• The NC press brake can only operate on one program as opposed to the CNC press brake which is capable of complex programming
• The NC press brake has no limited storage capacity compared to the CNC press brake’s ability to store multiple programs
• The cost of the NC hydraulic press brake is less than the CNC press brake
• The NC hydraulic press brake has lower accuracy compared to the CNC  hydraulic press brake
