Sheet metal bending
CNC machining (Computer Numerical Control) is the foundation of the modern metal industry. Thanks to it, it is possible to achieve micron-level precision, production repeatability, and process automation that only a few decades ago required the work of many highly skilled operators. At Pro Metal Form, CNC technologies are not just working tools – they are the heart of our business, enabling us to deliver even the most demanding projects for clients from a wide range of industries.
In this article, we take you on a journey through our machine park and show how four key CNC technologies – laser cutting, bending, punching, and robotic welding – work together to create a complete metal processing ecosystem.
Cutting is the first stage in the metal processing workflow and often determines the quality of the final product. At Pro Metal Form, we operate two advanced laser cutting systems that allow us to work with sheets, tubes, and profiles alike.
Our Trumpf laser cutting machine equipped with a 6 kW TruDisk fiber source sets industry standards. Fiber laser technology is characterized by exceptional energy efficiency and precision. We can cut:
What sets our Trumpf machine apart? BrightLine and highspeed technologies, which not only accelerate the cutting process but, above all, ensure exceptionally smooth edges that often require no additional finishing. This translates into time and cost savings for our clients.
While the Trumpf excels at sheet metal, our ADIGE LT 8.20 laser is specialized in cutting tubes, closed and open profiles, and special sections. This machine is a true master of versatility.
Technical capabilities:
Intelligent features:
The Active Weld system deserves special attention. It automatically detects the weld seam in tubes and profiles, allowing precise cut positioning and guaranteeing repeatability even with materials of varying quality.
Production management is supported by advanced CAM software: Artube, Asembler, Part Viewer, Protube Enterprise, and Express. This allows us to efficiently plan both large production batches and single prototype orders.
Once parts are cut, the next step is shaping them. Bending is a process that requires not only force but, above all, precision and control. At Pro Metal Form, we use two advanced press brakes from DENER, representing two different drive philosophies.
The PUMA XL is a hydraulic press brake that combines traditional force with modern CNC control systems.
Technical parameters:
This machine excels in processing thicker materials and complex shapes that require high pressing force. The table deflection compensation system eliminates the natural bending of long worktables under load, resulting in perfectly uniform bends along the entire length of the part.
The SERVOBRAKE 4015 is a modern electric press brake representing the future of CNC bending.
Technical parameters:
Electric drive technology is a revolution in press brakes. Compared to hydraulic systems, it offers:
Both press brakes are equipped with safety light curtains and advanced CNC systems that enable programming of complex bending sequences.
Before production begins, we offer our clients bending process simulations. Using specialized software, we can:
This saves time, material, and money – for both us and our clients.
Punching is a technology that is often underestimated yet indispensable in mass production of sheet metal components. Unlike laser cutting, which burns through material, punching mechanically cuts shapes using a punch and die.
When is punching the best choice?
At Pro Metal Form, we use eccentric and hydraulic presses that allow us to punch complex shapes from various steel materials. This process is particularly cost-effective for large batches, where the one-time tooling cost is quickly amortized.
Advantages of punching:
The final but equally important stage is joining components. Robotic welding has completely transformed metal production. At Pro Metal Form, we operate three Panasonic TAWERS TM 1800 WG3 welding robots – workstations that combine power, precision, and intelligence.
Each of our three welding robots is a complete production workstation:
Equipment:
This configuration maximizes efficiency. While the robot welds in one zone, the operator prepares parts in the other, enabling near-continuous robot operation without downtime.
Welding capabilities:
Our TAWERS ACTIVE WIRE system is a specialized technology for welding delicate, thin materials. Its key feature is the “dual pulse” function – pulsed wire feeding that:
Our Panasonic robots offer a suite of technologies that elevate welding quality to the highest level:
Panasonic robots are equipped with real-time welding parameter monitoring systems. This means the machine:
This guarantees 100% repeatability and the highest weld quality, regardless of production volume.
The true strength of our machine park lies in the synergy of all technologies. A typical project at Pro Metal Form follows these steps:
All processes are managed via integrated CAD/CAM systems, ensuring seamless data flow and eliminating errors caused by manual data transfer.
Investing in modern CNC technologies means tangible benefits for our clients:
Our CNC technologies are used across many industries:
CNC machining at Pro Metal Form is a combination of state-of-the-art machinery, advanced software, and the experience of our team. Our Trumpf and ADIGE lasers, DENER press brakes, and Panasonic welding robots enable us to deliver projects at the highest global standards.
However, technology alone is not enough. Equally important is the expertise that allows us to fully leverage these machines and the flexibility that makes us a trusted partner – for both large corporations and small companies developing innovative projects.
