48 Inch Sheet Metal Press Brakes

These press brakes handle a broad range of materials including soft brass, heat-treated aluminum alloys, stainless steel, soft aluminum, and chrome molybdenum. The hydraulic system provides consistent force and control, making it suitable for both thin sheet metal and thicker gauge stock used in structural or enclosure fabrication.

Entry-level configurations start at $42,900, with final pricing depending on tonnage, bed width, and tooling options.
