Trusted Folding Partner in Northern Ireland
KME Steelworks can offer a folding service that covers a wide range of material types and thicknesses. We have made substantial investment in press brake technology with a range of press brakes from 1m 35T to 4m 220T and have compiled a very extensive tooling library. Our team of very experienced press brake operators can deal with small or very large batch sizes.
KME smallest press is a Trumpf TruBend 7036, this is the fastest bending machine in the world with an extremely fast moving machine axes.
It is a very flexible machine capable of producing components with a very accurate finished part quality.
Our 7 Axis 3m 170T press is an exceptionally accurate machine. It has a world patented Automatic Reactive lower beam and is also fitted with a BI-S automatic Angle Measurement System to guarantee fold angle accuracy. It addition it is a long stroke machine with extra daylight giving a 620mm open height, this allows us to fold larger components.
- Active in-process angle measurement
- Automatically adjusted bend angle
- Direct calculation and achievement of the targeted angle
Our 7 Axis 4m 220T press is a high speed machine suitable for high volume components and is fitted with a digipro angle measuring system that transmits the measured angle wirelessly to the press controls which in turn automatically corrects the program thereby providing the precise bend angle.
