Press Brake Forming

Press Brake Forming

Brake forming is a specialty at Chicago Metal Fabricators. Our 11 brakes range from 50 to 1,500 tons, enabling us to produce complicated parts in one piece without splice welding or assembly. Hydraulic and mechanical presses allow fabrication of parts that are up to 30 ft long and 4 in. thick. Parts can be manufactured in steel, stainless, aluminum, abrasion-resistant AR400, and HSLA/Domex. Our CNC and forming fabrication are intended for applications that include angles, side frames, rails, and crane booms. We also offer sand blasting, painting, and punching services to fulfill your manufacturing needs and meet AWS, CWB, and ISO 9001:2015 industry standards.

Our expertise and high-quality machinery increase the value of our services. Please contact us to learn more.
