Fabrication and Metal Forming

Fabrication and metal forming is another specialty of Sterling Precision Machining, Inc. We currently have a Trumpf VF130 CNC hydraulic press brake. This brake has a 4-axis CNC back gauge that allows us to precisely control the placement of bends. The ram is also CNC controlled which allows excellent repeatability across a broad range of materials including cold-rolled carbon steel, high strength carbon steel, hot rolled carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum.

The bend length of 10’ coupled with 130 tons of working force allow us to create 90o bends in ¼” mild steel the length of the bend. Thick material can also be formed in shorter sections. The European style precision ground tooling gives us very short setup times for processing multiple jobs quickly and with impressive accuracy.
