Reduce Unwanted Sheet Marking

MARK-FREE SOLUTIONS FOR BENDING

REDUCE UNWANTED SHEET MARKING Wilson Tool International offers numerous solutions to help press brake operators reduce or eliminate sheet marking during bending operations. Urethane dies, holders, pads and drapes form a protective barrier that impedes the metal-on-metal scraping that often happens during bending. The protective fabric drape is a lightweight and flexible alternative to urethane that also provides a barrier to prevent scratching. V-series dies use a rotating action that causes much less friction than typical V dies, resulting in reduced part marking.

Urethane products available from Wilson Tool include: • Urethane Dies These dies greatly reduce and, in some cases, completely eliminate sheet marking on the press brake. They are available in the most common profiles from the American and European tool style collections.

• Urethane Holders and Pads Wilson Tool’s urethane holders are manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum and hold a pad of urethane for mark free and radius bending. Two pad hardness options are available: Blue/90A is most commonly used and Red/80A helps reduce tonnage in the application by approximately 20%.

• Pr otective Coverings Urethane drapes provide a protective layer across the top of your standard dies to virtually eliminate sheet marking. Our standard roll of urethane is offered in two thicknesses (.015" and .030") to fit your application. Our high density urethane offering is .022" thick, lasting significantly longer than standard urethane.

Wilson Tool International | wilsontool.com | 800-445-4518 V-SERIES DIES

Wilson Tool International’s V-Series press brake dies incorporate rotating inserts to decrease friction and to enable better performance on tough-to-bend applications with holes and cut outs close to the bend line. The Wilson V-Series is available for virtually all major styles of press brake tooling.

Reduced Friction Wilson Tool V-Series dies include built-in blades that rotate so there is minimal lateral movement between the sheet and the die. This reduction in movement decreases the friction between the die and the sheet which helps to minimize sheet marking.

PROTECTIVE FABRIC DRAPE PROTECTIVE FABRIC DRAPE CAT. NO. DESCRIPTION Long-life, Coated Fabric 55335 12.5m [41'] length x 120mm [4.7"] width This fabric drape forms a protective barrier between the sheet metal and the die shoulders during the 55337 12.5m [41'] length x 240mm [9.5"] width bending process. 987041 3/8" x 1/2" Cylinder Magnet

• Durable — highly resistant to fraying, cutting and splitting, ensuring many hours of mark-free parts.

• Requires less frequent repositioning than other traditional methods.

• Bending angle consistency — because of its reduced thickness and resistance to degrading, the repeatability of the bend angle remains consistent.

• Ease of use — being only 0.3mm [.012"] thick, the fabric is easy to position on the die and requires no complicated holding fixtures.
