A press brake is a special type of machine press that bends sheet metal into shape. A good example of the type of work a press brake can do is the back-plate of a computer case. Other examples include brackets, frame pieces and electronic enclosures. Some press brakes have CNC controls and can form parts with accuracy to a fraction of a ...
Press tools are commonly used in hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical presses to produce the sheet metal components in large volumes. Generally press tools are categorized by the types of operation performed using the tool, such as blanking, piercing , bending , forming , forging , trimming etc.
Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes, such as punching using a machine press or stamping press, blanking, embossing, bending, flanging, and coining. [1] This could be a single stage operation where every stroke of the press produces the desired form on the sheet metal part, or could occur through a series ...
Currently parts as thick as 19 mm (0.75 in) can be cut using fine blanking. [9] Tolerances between ±0.0003–0.002 in (0.0076–0.0508 mm) are possible, depending on the base material thickness and tensile strength, and part layout. [10] With standard compound fine blanking processes, multiple parts can often be completed in a single operation.
Self-centering three-jaw chuck and key with one jaw removed and inverted showing the teeth that engage in the scroll plate. The scroll plate is rotated within the chuck body by the key, the scroll engages the teeth on the underside of the jaws which moves the three jaws in unison, to tighten or release the workpiece.
Power press with a fixed barrier guard Mechanical press. A stamping press is a metalworking machine tool used to shape or cut metal by deforming it with a die. A stamping press uses precision-made male and female dies to shape the final product. It is a modern-day counterpart to the hammer and anvil.

The hydraulic press depends on Pascal's principle.The pressure throughout a closed system is constant. One part of the system is a piston acting as a pump, with a modest mechanical force acting on a small cross-sectional area; the other part is a piston with a larger area which generates a correspondingly large mechanical force.
