Sheet Metal Bending
Highly precise, efficient, fast, and cost-effective metal bending is ensured by the technology of sheet metal bending using press brakes.
We offer top-quality sheet metal bending services using modern press brakes. We know how to bend sheet metal to meet all our customers' expectations.
Our technical facilities and qualified personnel guarantee the production of high-quality elements in any quantity with 100% shape repeatability. A wide selection of tools allows us to offer a broad range of services. We perform sheet metal bending in our plant in Pleszew, Greater Poland, about 100 km from Poznań. We accept orders from all over Poland and abroad.
Advantages of using press brakes include:
- 100% shape repeatability and high bending precision;
- fast production process;
- bending of complex shapes without material deformation;
- low unit cost (for large orders);
- any number of identical elements (from a single prototype through a small series to a large number of identical elements);
- optimal use of raw material, ensuring significant waste reduction.

We have four CNC press brakes:
- Amada HFP 100-3
- Amada HFE 220-3
- Safan E-Brake B 50-2050
- TRUMPF TruBend 3100
These modern press brakes enable precise bending of sheets up to 3000 mm in length with high positioning accuracy.
Technologies Used in Sheet Metal Bending
Sheet metal bending is a process that allows for obtaining various shapes and applications. Several techniques can be used depending on the needs. The most popular include:
- Cold Bending – a method where the sheet is bent at room temperature. This is the most common bending technique, allowing for precise shapes and preserving material properties.
- Hot Bending – involves heating the sheet before bending, making it more flexible and easier to form. This method is particularly useful for bending materials with high hardness or thickness.
- Press Brake Bending – a technique that uses special presses for precise sheet metal bending. These presses are equipped with tools that control the bending angle and pressure force, ensuring high quality and shape repeatability.
Types of Materials for Bending
Sheet metal bending can be applied to various materials depending on needs and applications. Some of these materials include:
- Stainless Steel – a high-strength, corrosion-resistant material commonly used in the automotive, construction, and food industries.
- Aluminum – a lightweight and strong material that is easy to process and has excellent anti-corrosion properties. It is used in the aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries.
- Copper – a material with high electrical and thermal conductivity used in the electrical, electronic, and heating industries.
Each of these materials has its unique properties and applications, making sheet metal bending a versatile technique for various projects across many industries.
