Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This comprehensive book presents information in a non-machine specific format and establishes a base line reference, using the application of basic mathematics, trigonometry, and geometry to select die widths, establish precise bend deductions, and other aspects of press brake operation. It focuses on the machines, the procedures, the mathematics, the tools, and the safe procedures necessary to run an efficient press brake operation. Readers learn how to apply this knowledge to shop floor activities.
