Manual apron press brakes

The manual press brake bends thin sheet metal without electricity — convenient for sheet metal workers, workshops and installation crews. Here are two Metallkraft apron press brakes.

HSBM 305 HS is compact, with a working width of 305 mm and sheet up to 1 mm — for small parts, covers and brackets. It costs €270. The HSBM 1020-10 bends steel up to 1 mm at 1,020 mm, with a clamping device for fixing the workpiece and adjustment of the upper beam. Bending is done with the two handles of the beam, and the workpiece does not move during bending. The price is €1,294.80.

Both models are for steel sheet up to 1 mm; for stainless steel the thickness is less. If you bend a wider or thicker sheet, look at the motorised press brakes.
