Press brakes are a fundamental component in the manufacturing industry. They offer precision and versatility that is essential for fabricating metal components. Understanding the various applications for press brakes in manufacturing can highlight their significance and demonstrate why they are indispensable for modern production processes.
Maintaining your bandsaw machine is crucial for ensuring its longevity, performance, and safety in the workshop. Regular maintenance not only prevents costly breakdowns but also ensures precision in your cuts, whether you are working with wood, metal, or other materials. In this guide, we will
Choosing the right drill press comes down to four things: the space you have, your drilling capacity (material size and type), the precision features you need, and your budget. The main types are bench, radial, box-column and column (pillar) drills, each suited to different workshop
In today’s rapidly evolving manufacturing world, the quest for precision, efficiency, and versatility has led to the rise of ground-breaking technologies. Among these innovations, Fibre Laser Tube Cutting Technologies stand out as a game-changer. This technology offers unmatched capabilities in the fabrication of various components
A hydraulic guillotine uses pressurised fluid to drive a blade through sheet metal, delivering clean, burr-free cuts through thick and tough materials. Its key features are high cutting power and precision, versatility across metals, programmable automated controls, built-in safety systems, and a durable steel frame
Fibre lasers cut metal faster, more precisely and more cheaply to run than older laser types. The main benefits are high cutting precision, faster production speeds, compatibility with a wide range of metals, minimal maintenance from the solid-state design, lower energy use, and easy integration
At AFM Europe, we are proud to announce our exclusive new partnership with GLORYSTAR, one of the world’s most trusted manufacturers of advanced fibre laser cutting machines. This collaboration allows us to bring our customers the very best in flat bed and tube cutting technology,
Sheet Metal Machinery Field Engineer AFM are looking for the right driven individual to join our expanding team of forward thinking people. We have a requirement for a new sheet metal field engineer who has experience in the installation and servicing of the following machinery:
At AFM Europe, we are passionate about supporting the next generation of engineers and fabricators. This week we were delighted to install two brand-new Ermaksan sheet metal fabrication machines at the newly opened Northumberland College in Blyth. These state-of-the-art machines – a precision press brake
Another installation this week took place at HETA, the leading engineering training provider in the Yorkshire and Humber region. They have purchased an Ermaksan Powerbend Pro 3100 x 175 Ton. This is the second installation at HETA, having already installed a steelworker earlier in the
