When choosing press brake machine molds, we need to consider a variety of factors, including material selection, accuracy requirements, size, bending angle, bending shape selection, and the material, model, and structural design of the mold.

1.Material selection: Generally speaking, the mold material should be more corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant and pressure-resistant than the sheet material. There are many materials for press brake machine molds, including steel, alloy materials and polymer materials. Currently, steel is the most commonly used material for pressure brake molds, such as T8 steel, T10 steel, 42CrMo and Cr12MoV.

2.Accuracy requirements: ‌According to the accuracy requirements in the production process, ‌select molds with corresponding accuracy.

3.Dimension: ‌According to the dimension of the metal sheet that needs to be processed, ‌select suitable molds of the press brake machine.

4.Bending angle and shape: Different shapes molds are suitable for different shapes bending products. ‌Common mold shapes include V-shaped, ‌U-shaped, ‌C-shaped and rectangular, etc.

5.mold model selection: ‌Select the appropriate mold model based on the shape and size of the required bending workpiece. mold models generally include upper and lower molds and V-shaped molds. ‌Different models of molds can achieve different bending angles and radius.

6.mold structure design: The design of the mold structure affects the stability of the press brake machine and the processing accuracy of the workpiece. ‌The mold structure should consider factors such as preventing deformation, ‌reducing stress concentration, and improving stiffness, ‌to ensure the quality and accuracy of bending processing.

‌By taking these factors into consideration, MACRO company can select the press brake machine mold that best suits your specific processing needs, thereby improving your production efficiency and quality. ‌
