Compatibility with Amada Machines

Cnstamp’s Amada‑type tooling follows the key design standards for Amada press brakes, including quick-clamp interfaces and standard segment lengths. It can also be used on machines from other manufacturers that accept Amada-style tooling. This allows manufacturers to replace or expand tooling without worrying about fit or alignment issues.

● Standard segment lengths include 835 mm, 800 mm, and 500 mm.

Punches for Different Bending Needs

● Gooseneck punches – for forming boxes, channels, and deep bends without interference with previously bent sections.

● Acute angle punches – for sharp bends with tight tolerances.

● 88° and 90° standard punches – for common bending tasks.

● Custom punches – designed to match specific production requirements.

Dies for Precise Bends

● Acute angle dies – for sharp bends.

● Radius dies – for smooth, rounded bends.

● Multi-V dies – allow different V-openings for various material thicknesses.

● 30°, 45°, 60°, 88°, 90° dies – cover standard bending angles.

● Custom dies – produced according to unique project requirements.

Tooling Maintenance and Service Life

● Keep surfaces clean and free of metal chips, dust, or oil before each use.

● Inspect punches and dies regularly for wear and replace any worn components.

● Check press brake alignment and table parallelism to reduce stress on the tooling.

Selecting the Right Tooling

Choosing the correct Amada‑type press brake tooling is critical for achieving accurate bends, maintaining part quality, and extending tooling life. Several factors must be carefully evaluated to ensure optimal performance:

Material Type and Thickness

● Material hardness – Harder metals, such as stainless steel or high-strength alloys, require larger die openings and stronger punches to prevent tool wear or deformation. Softer metals like aluminum or mild steel can be bent with standard die clearances.

● Material thickness – Thicker sheets require more force to bend, which may necessitate a deeper V-opening die and a heavier-duty punch to maintain straightness and prevent springback. Using tooling designed for thinner materials on thick sheets can cause inaccurate bends and shorten tool life.

● Surface finish considerations – Some materials are prone to scratches or marks; in such cases, consider tooling with polished surfaces or protective coatings to preserve workpiece quality.

Bending Shape and Tolerances

● Bend angle requirements – Acute bends or sharp angles may need custom punches or dies specifically designed to achieve the desired angle without damaging the material.

Bend radius – Small radius bends require tight-tolerance acute angle punches and matching dies, while larger radius bends may require radius dies.

● Part complexity – For parts with multiple bends, step bends, or boxed shapes, gooseneck punches or segmented tooling combinations are often necessary to avoid interference between previously bent sections.

● Tolerance standards – High-precision parts with narrow tolerance ranges may require specially ground tooling to ensure every bend meets dimensional requirements. Detailed part drawings are essential to select the correct punch and die combination.

Machine Tonnage and Table Length

● Press brake tonnage – Ensure that the total bending force required for the material thickness and die opening does not exceed the machine’s rated capacity. Using undersized tooling on heavy sheets can damage both the tooling and the machine.

● Table length and segment layout – The tooling length must be compatible with the press brake table. Segmented dies allow flexibility for different part lengths, but proper layout is essential to maintain uniform bending along the sheet.

● Clamping system compatibility – Verify that the punch and die are compatible with the press brake’s clamping method (mechanical, hydraulic, or quick-clamp), ensuring safe installation and accurate positioning.

Additional Tips

● Always check tooling alignment before each production run to maintain straightness and parallelism.

● Consider the sequence of bends for complex parts, as earlier bends may limit access for subsequent operations.

● Regularly inspect tooling for wear, and replace components proactively to maintain consistent results.
