    Promecam Press Brake Help Needed!

    I had the same problem with mine. I think it happens when someone press to hard on one side of the press. I've straighten it up with the cam as you did. If you are at max setting on one side you can loosen the other side a bit. My press didn't had the drum, but I suppose it some kind of stop to...

    Press brake... A newbie question

    First you need a back gauge (you can be precise with a good one). A cnc one will open you the possibility to gauge multiple bend fast. (As in your part). Second it help to have a second axis cnc, so you can control the depth of each bend (as in your part). More axis is further more flexible to...

    Keep in mind that everything cut with air plasma will need edge prep when welding, including steel. But as snow man said it's hard to live without when you get use to even if you need to clean parts.

    PROMECAM ITP2 press brake issue

    Hi, MonopolyGuy I've played with mine on my promecam RG-103 but i'm not an expert. I was bending more on the right. If you measure the bed plate to the top plate you need to be identical on both side. I've played with the left eccentrics then cycle the press a few time then measure, then...

    Stainless Finishing - taking it to the next level

    I have a line mate it's a good machine the only drawback is the sanding drum that come with it. It's hard to get rid of the ripple. It is easy to get another drum like dynabrade that is shorter in length but wider in diameter. To get rid of the ripple it is a combination of three thing that you...

    What to look for when inspecting a used press brake?

    You can bring an indicator and a flat cold roll piece to measure the parallelism of the ram. You indicate the ram as sliding the indicator over the die holder. Check, if possible, for leak of oil around cylinder, pump, filter. If repainted ask to see it work, if you can't walk away. Check punch...

    Plasma plate sensing

    Thanks a lot for the reply. It is sure when I cut a medium size contour the stainless did not warp, it's when I try to cut many feature inside a small contour (laser do the same thing to sheet).

    Yes spv is like a vinyl film. I cut mine vinyl on top an I don't peel it off because often I need to pressbrake the parts. If I cut vinyl down there a lot of dross formation. I was thinking of maybe a laser like thc.

    Plasma plate sensing

    Hi guys, I have a cnc plasma table and I cut often 16g stainless with spv. I use the down force technic to find first sheet height. For the first few cut it's ok but when the sheet began to expand and "bulge" the torch only push the sheet downward. Ohmic sensing is out of question due to spv...
