At FLT TOOLING, we deliver industrial-grade press brake dies engineered for manufacturers who demand uncompromising accuracy and longevity. Whether you are bending complex aerospace components or standard sheet metal parts, our tooling inventory covers the full spectrum of metal forming needs. We utilize advanced metallurgy and precision machining to ensure every punch and die enhances your machine's performance, regardless of the equipment interface.
Why do leading fabricators choose our tooling? The secret lies in our full-chain production process. Unlike standard market tools, our dies undergo a rigorous "Forging → Heat Treatment → Five-Axis Linkage Machining → Surface Strengthening" cycle.
Extreme Precision: We guarantee a dimensional tolerance of ±0.02mm across all segments. This ensures that sectionalized tools can be used interchangeably without alignment issues.
Extended Lifespan: Crafted from imported high-quality alloy tool steel (such as 42CrMo), our tools feature laser-hardened working surfaces. This results in superior fatigue resistance and a 30% longer service life compared to conventional molds.
We offer a versatile range of upper and lower dies suitable for various bending applications:
Straight Punches: The go-to solution for standard 90° bends and air bending.
Acute Angle Punches: Designed for creating sharp angles (30°, 45°, 60°) and managing spring-back in high-tensile materials.
Gooseneck Punches: Featuring a unique relieved shape, these are essential for forming deep return flanges, U-profiles, and box shapes without the tool colliding with the workpiece.
Hemming Dies (Flattening Tools): A dual-function toolset used to create safe, flat edges (hems) on sheet metal, widely used in door production and enclosure manufacturing.
4-Way / Multi-V Dies: Block dies featuring different V-opening sizes on each side, allowing operators to switch between material thicknesses quickly without changing the tool setup.
Looking for the right setup? Here is a quick reference guide to optimize your bending:
The width of the V-die opening is critical for achieving the correct bend radius and tonnage.
For Thin Plate (Thickness < 3mm): We recommend a V-opening of 6x to 8x the material thickness.
For Thick Plate (Thickness ≥ 3mm): We recommend a V-opening of 8x to 10x the material thickness.
Pro Tip: A smaller V-opening creates a tighter internal radius but requires more tonnage (force). Always ensure your machine's capacity matches the tooling specifications.
If standard tools cannot meet your specific bending requirements, our engineering team (holding 20 patents) provides custom non-standard mold design. From special radius modifications to complex offset dies, we deliver solutions tailored to your drawings.
With a massive annual output of over 100,000 sets, we guarantee 48-hour shipping for standard inventory and 15-day delivery for custom orders.
