Cincinnati Incorporated introduces trio of 3-D-printed press brake tooling process enhancements

Cincinnati Incorporated has introduced a trio of 3-D-printed press brake process enhancements: printed upper and lower airbend tooling, printed backgauge fingers, and a printed inspection gauge.

The tools were 3-D-printed using PLA, a milk-based, environmentally friendly plastic. According to the company, the new technology is suitable for prototype fabricators working in 12-ga. or thinner materials and those forming smaller, specialty parts.
