CNC parameter restoration and backgauge datum calibration

Ram parallelism verification and hydraulic balancing

Loaded test bending and angular tolerance verification

01 / 03

The Industrial Challenge

Belhou Frères' CNC press brake was out of service because its axis stops were misaligned and the shear blades were badly worn. The wear caused burrs and prevented clean cuts in thin sheet metal.

Deployed Engineering & Method

We diagnosed the equipment and recalibrated the press brake's mechanical and electronic components. We removed and ground the shear blades, sharpened them, and precisely adjusted the clearance between them.

Measurable Result

The equipment was returned to working order in 10 days. Bending angles were brought back to the required accuracy, and the shear produced clean cuts across the specified sheet thicknesses.
