Standard

Setting the Standard for American-Made Metal Fabrication Equipment

Press Brakes

One of the true advantages of the Standard drive system is our ability to provide full tonnage across the bed and ram and not create excessive side loads. This is accomplished because all forces are vertical above the ram centerline and are fully contained within the extremely heavy duty "box" structure. This structure houses the drive system and our impressive 3 point ram guidance/gibbing system.

The front to back forces are controlled with our precision machined set of "ways" combined with extremely heavy duty slides. These ways and guides are located both front and back of the ram and at both ends of the ram. The third set of gibbs is our innovative and very formidable center thrust gibb. This impressive gibbing system is self-aligning and requires no operator action during ram alignment. All three sets of gibbs control the front to back and left to right forces providing the precision +, -.001" ram repeatability.

OUR BRAKES ARE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THE FOLLOWING APPLICATIONS:

FULL LENGTH BENDS - where full tonnage across the bed is required for the truest bends

OFF-CENTER LOADING - especially when needing substantial tonnage near the ends of the brake

CENTER LOADING - when any amount of tonnage is required in the center or anywhere across the bed

MULTIPLE DIE SET-UPS - across the bed that require the same or varying amounts of tonnage

PUNCHING APPLICATIONS - great for punching alone or combined with forming

SHORT PIECE WORK - with some of the fastest ram speeds, you small piece work is done quickly easy with precision

The single horizontal cylinder creates full tonnage across the ram via the massive bellcrank linkage system. Inboard pivot points more evenly distribute tonnage which in most cases lessens the need for adjustable crown die holders.

Shears

• The most precision shearing system available, made in the USA with unmatched warranty, service and parts availability.
• State of the art controls giving the ability to manage all aspects of shearing including gap adjustment, rake adjustment, stroke length, gauge depth, job programmability plus much more.
• Standard features include our unmatched 5 year parts/ 1 year CNC and 5 year limited on-site labor warranty.
• Off the shelf, non-proprietary components means no more over-priced, single source buying from one manufacturer.
• With service all over the United States and multiple parts sources all over the world, you will never again have to wonder where your support is coming from.

36" or 48" Travel EXTREMELY Heavy Duty Backgauge

No other backgauge comes close to the rigidity coupled with the brute strength of the Standard Industrial shear backgauge. Perfectly built for precision and outright ability to take abuse.

• Equipped with a manual easy swingaway backstop
• Available with optional power swingaway backstop
• Clear area under backgauge for support equipment
• 5 years parts warranty
• Complete O.S.H.A. compliance
• The absolute heaviest backgauge on the market

Single Horizontal Cylinder:

The single cylinder horizontal cylinder creates full tonnage via the massive bellcrank linkage system. Powered by just one cylinder, the bellcrank linkage supplies full tonnage the entire length of the shear. On each end of the shear ram is an incredibly heavy-duty and precision-machined tapered gibb system. This gibb system controls all front to back and left to right forces to provide the most precision cut available.

With only one cylinder you do not have to worry about "balancing" two cylinders and creating un-even tonnage and distortion in the cut. One cylinder creates full tonnage the entire cut instead of multiple cylinders creating various amounts of force.
