What is Metal Forming & Brake Press?
Using controlled force and precision tooling, metal forming transforms a flat sheet metal into complex, functional parts. At MET, we used advanced Accurpress 130-Ton Brake Presses to ensure exact, repeatable bends, which are essential for industries where every detail matters.
Our brake press capabilities reduce waste and save time, letting you move confidently from design to delivery. Whether you need custom brackets, enclosures, or chassis, our forming solutions adapt to your unique requirements. So, no matter the need, we are the go-to partner for any engineer and purchaser seeking reliability and value.
MET’s Brake Press Capabilities – Equipment & Expertise
Our shop features Accurpress 130-Ton Brake Presses capable of forming parts up to 8 feet long. MET routinely handles challenging shapes and complex bends in aluminum up to ½”, steel up to ¼”, and a range of specialty metals. Each project receives meticulous attention from skilled technicians.
