These days in the sheet metal industry we are increasing being tested with new component designs. The components seem to be getting smaller and more intricate. Problems arise in the press brake cell due to the difficulty in locating these components to he back gauges.

Amada offer two solutions for these problems.

The side gauge is ideal for setting small components. It is possible to fit the side gauge onto a single or double "V" dies. This allows for a quick and simple change over from left to right.

For more complicated bending angles we have the adjustable side gauge, where the gauge is adjustable to a maximum of 45 degrees plus and minus from the vertical.

Another useful tool for increasing productivity on your press brake machine.
