Opti-Bend®

Wilson Tool International’s Opti-Bend® tooling enables sheet metal fabricators to perform 90° bends on a punch press. Available for either thick turret or TRUMPF-style machines, Opti-Bend® tooling eliminates time-consuming secondary operations typically performed on a press brake.

Using a rotating cam built into the die, the machine stroke simulates the cycling of a press brake, producing simple 90° bends with little or no sheet marking.

TRUMPF-Style Opti-Bend® Tooling

• Opti-Bend® special cam design minimizes sheet marking on soft or high-polish materials
• Allows for bending flanges with forms in them
• Available in single hit and progressive styles
• Works in Group I, LVD Strippit, PX and Pullmax machines (requires hover capability)
• Maximum bend = 90° with the capability of 3° overbend
