The horizontal press brake was first introduced by SIMASV in 1957, are particularly distinguished by their flexibility and versatility. User-friendly and easy to maintain, our horizontal press brakes can be fitted with countless tools. Our horizontal bending press fits any small to medium-sized industry when machinery for large-scale production must necessarily make way for machinery with distinctly lower production costs.

We offer two series of horizontal press brakes, the standard series and the super series. Both series have gone through decades of improvements which is why no other bending press offers as much value for the investment. One of our biggest improvements was placing the hydraulic cylinder below the table. After years of producing machines with the cylinder above the table (which we still produce today upon request) we standardized on machines with the cylinder below, offering the the greatest working environment, and the most bend accuracy due to less deflection in the table.

Our horizontal brakes have the following features: 1.) Most tonnage for dollar invested; 2.) Cylinder under work table allowing for better accuracy and more work surface; 3) User performs operation in front of the machine instead of the side of the machine making it easier to produce quality products, and frontal position on our press brakes is protected and practical position for the operator; 4.) Our patented conical pins with lock-on bayonet fittings eliminate all mechanical slack as far as tolerance is concerned, providing maximum rigidity with minimal flexing of work table. This patented feature is why no other horizontal bending press is as accurate; 5.) Our super series stroke control is by means of hydraulically controlled stroke end devices that allows for greater accuracy (compared to limit switch stroke end control) allowing for continuous movement under pressure, achieving maximum accuracy and repeatability in position; and much more.

The standard series is comprised of the T-22 which stands for 22 metric tons of power (or 25 imperial tons). Twenty-five tons is the proper tonnage for approximately 50 % of all applications out there. If your spending the money on a horizontal press brake the operator should start with a machine no lower than 25 tons if they want to capitalize on a greater amount of profitable work that can be shifted to the machine. The T-22 employs our unique cylinder under the table allowing for the perfect flat open work table environment that will bring more profit to the end user. This series is a simple series where the operator controls the stroke in and the stroke back by two hand wheels. Simplicity means profit.

The super series is comprised of the T-40 (45 imperial tons); T-60; T-80; and the T-100. The 45 ton machine (T-40) is the proper tonnage for 90% of all applications for a horizontal press brake. For many people who buy or 25 ton machine soon wish they would of made the small extra investment, because the 45 ton machine covers the biggest spectrum of profitable jobs that can be landed by the firm, making the T-40 the most profitable machine in our line up for the investment made. We do offer the T-40 in a manual mode with the two hand wheels for adjusting the stroke in and out, while we also offer a digital version that allows for programming several hundred complex functions and can come in a two axis machine as well. To fill out the majority of the bigger tonnage requirements, we offer the T-60 through the T-100.

Our horizontal press brakes can be fitted with hundreds of tooling options for acting as a press brake (using the table as the level for accuracy), ram bender (for pipe or solids), rotary draw tubing bender, shear, punch, ornamental iron twisting machine, straightener, etc. This machine tool is great for any welding shop, fabricator, or general job shop. No other machine on the market is as versatile as the horizontal bending press.

Over forty-years of experience and thousands of units sold throughout the world in the sector allows us to offer a competitive product in constant renewal. Please click on either series above to determine which horizontal press brake fits your requirements.
