Why you need 1600 Ton Pressbrake, Bending force depends on:
Material thickness
Material strength
Bend length
Die opening
When any of those go big, tonnage skyrockets.
A 1600-ton press brake is used when:
Plate is thick (20–60+ mm / ¾"–2½"+)
Material is high-strength
Parts are long (6–10+ meters / 20–30+ ft)
Tight radii or deep bends are required
Forming Heavy Welded structures like:
Bridge girders
Box columns
Large beams and stiffeners
Base frames for industrial machinery
Shipbuilding Defence & Naval like:
Hull sections
Deck plates
Bulkheads
Reinforcement ribs
Enegery & Infrastructure like:
Wind tower sections
Power plant components
Pressure vessel shells (pre-forming)
Transformer tanks
Heavy Machining & Ground & Mining jobs like:
Excavator frames
Crusher housings
Dump truck bodies
Mining chute liners
Furnace housings
Kilns
Massive welded assemblies
Material to bend on 1600 t machine:
Carbon steel:
S235 / S275 / S355
A36, A572
Plate thickness: ~20–50 mm+
High strength steel
S690 / S700
Hardox, Strenx
Much higher tonnage needed even at thinner gauges
Stainles steel:
304 / 316
Needs ~1.5–2× the force of mild steel
Wear-resistant plate
Heat-resistant steels
JOB Example:
Bending 40 mm S355 steel over 8 meters can easily require 1,200–1,600 tons, depending on tooling.
Bending instead of welding:
Increases strength
Reduces distortion
Cuts weld time and cost
Improves fatigue life
Looks cleaner and more accurate
A 1600-ton press brake is used when:
The part is too thick
Too strong
Too long
It’s not for sheet metal shops — it’s for heavy industry, shipyards, steel fabricators, and energy projects.
