Press Brake Forming

Press Brake Forming

Bending steel with precision and power, PowerBrace’s press brake forming capabilities deliver accuracy and flexibility in forming metal parts of all sizes. Our machines range from 70 to 250 tons of brake force and accommodate material widths from ¼” to 10’ long. Whether you’re forming thin-gauge enclosures or heavy-duty structural parts, we ensure clean, repeatable bends with every cycle.

Our skilled operators use CNC-controlled press brakes with multi-axis back gauges for tight angular accuracy and consistent part replication. Press brake forming is ideal for creating custom brackets, channels, chassis components, support structures, and housings. We work with a variety of metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum, ensuring versatility for any application.
