Press Brake Die Types and Applications

Common Die Types:

• V-Dies: For standard bends in sheet metal (e.g., boxes, panels).
• Gooseneck/Offset Dies: For bending flanges on long or complex parts.
• Acute-Angle Dies: Achieve sharp bends (<90°) in precision components.
• Radius Dies: Create arcs for pipes, cylinders, or decorative metalwork.
• Hemming Dies: Fold edges for safety or aesthetic finishes.

Industrial Applications:

• Automotive: Body panels, chassis parts.
• Construction: Steel beams, HVAC ducts.
• Electronics: Enclosures, brackets.
• Aerospace: Lightweight structural components.
