Electric Press Brake for Versatility and Durability



Cincinnati Incorporated (CI) has introduced its portable electric press brake, the GOFORM.

Suitable for both simple and complex parts up to 1/4" thick and less than 50 lbs., GOFORM is built to meet the rigorous demands of multi-shift operations. With large touchscreen control, PC-based 3-D graphics and bend simulation GOFORM is portable, versatile, and durable. GOFORM guides the operator though complex set-ups and part handling sequences minimizing set-up time and reducing errors.

Additional features include:

  • Accommodates American, European and WT tooling styles
  • +/- 0.0002" ram repeatability
  • 10" Stroke - 17" open height
  • Dynamic thickness compensation (DTC)
  • 6 axis backgage
  • Quick clamp system
  • 22" gage depth.

Product Manager Todd Kirchoff said, "At just over 6,000 lbs. GOFORM can be easily moved and quickly put into production without being bolted to the floor. This provides fabricators with on-demand metalforming along with the flexibility to make changes to shop floor configurations. With floor space at a premium the ability to quickly respond to changing workflow, special orders, or tight production schedules can be a clear competitive advantage. An innovative feature of the GOFORM is its ability to measure the bend angle and make corrections to produce accurate bends every stroke."
