Sheet metal / precision forming
Cincinnati Press Brake — Precision Metal Bending & Forming
Our Cincinnati press brake is used to bend and form sheet metal and plate into accurate angles, channels, brackets, panels, enclosures, frames, supports, and other fabricated components.
This machine takes flat metal and forms it into usable finished parts. By controlling the location and angle of each bend, we can produce everything from simple brackets to more involved multi-bend components used in industrial equipment, commercial construction, machinery, manufacturing, repair work, and custom fabrication.
Custom metal fabrication
What can we make?
Press brake bending supports custom metal brackets, formed metal parts, and other custom fabricated parts—from a one-off component to repeat production.

Sheet metal bending
What does a press brake do?
A press brake forms metal by placing controlled bends into sheet metal or plate. This is useful when a project needs:
- Accurate bend angles
- Multiple bends in the same part
- Consistent repeatable parts
- Custom shapes that cannot remain flat
- Brackets, channels, boxes, trays, covers, and enclosures
- Production of multiple identical fabricated components
Depending on the material, thickness, dimensions, tooling, and bend requirements, press brake forming can be used with common fabrication metals including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
Custom metal forming
Made for real-world projects.
Customers do not need to know which machine should be used for their project.
Send us a drawing, CAD file, dimensions, existing part, sketch, or description of what you are trying to build. Our fabrication team can review the project and determine the best way to cut, bend, form, and fabricate the component.
If you have an older part that is damaged, unavailable, or difficult to replace, we may also be able to manufacture a replacement from the original part or available dimensions.
