CNC Bending & Laser Cutting: Serial Brackets

Manufacturing Technology & Engineering Solutions:

The serial manufacturing of metal brackets with complex spatial profiles relies on advanced technologies within an automated metalworking facility. The combination of precision fiber laser technology for exact blank cutting and multi-operational bending on CNC machines ensures strict compliance with geometric tolerances, angles, and linear dimensions throughout the entire product batch.

• HIGH-PRECISION LASER CUTTING & OPTIMAL NESTING Blank cutting is performed on modern fiber laser cutting machines. Advanced software nesting (sheet layout) guarantees a minimal kerf width and dense part arrangement on the metal sheet, significantly reducing material waste. The laser beam positioning precision reaches ±0.05 mm, ensuring flawless contours and a clean burr-free edge.
• COORDINATE PIERCING OF MOUNTING HOLES All fastening, technical, and adjustment holes (including round, oval, or custom slots) are pierced directly during the laser cutting process. This eliminates the need for subsequent drilling operations and guarantees a 100% match of center-to-center distances during bracket installation at the customer's site.
• MULTI-STAGE CNC BENDING WITH ANGULAR PRECISION The formation of complex profiles, reinforcement ribs, and mounting shelves is executed on high-end CNC hydraulic press brakes. Computerized control of sheet clamping force and punch depth ensures a stable bending angle on every single product, regardless of the batch size—from the first to the 500th piece.
• MATERIAL STRENGTH RETENTION IN DEFORMATION ZONES By utilizing professional tooling (dies and punches) with carefully calculated radii, the cold forming process prevents microcracks, internal stresses, and wall thinning in the deformation zones. The resulting brackets fully maintain their calculated strength characteristics under high static and dynamic loads.
