Typical Applications

This TRUMPF Type 60° R4 heavy-duty upper punch is designed for industrial applications requiring substantially higher bending force than conventional press brake tooling.

Its 180 ton/m rated load capacity and R4 tip radius make it particularly suitable for thicker materials and demanding metal forming applications.

Typical applications include:

• Thick plate bending
• Heavy-gauge sheet metal bending
• High-force press brake forming
• Heavy machinery components
• Industrial equipment components
• Structural metal components
• Heavy-duty cabinets and enclosures
• Construction machinery components
• Large fabricated metal parts
• Special 60° bending applications
• High-strength steel component forming
• Heavy industrial fabrication
• CNC press brake production
• Applications requiring high tooling strength
• Custom thick-plate forming applications

For customers currently using TRUMPF original tooling or corresponding tooling systems, we can manufacture suitable TRUMPF Type heavy-duty tooling according to machine specifications, existing tooling dimensions, and actual bending requirements.

180 Ton/m High Load Capacity for Thick Plate Bending

The most important characteristic of this model is its exceptionally high 180 ton/m rated load capacity.

Thicker plate requires significantly greater bending force than thin sheet metal. As material thickness, material strength, and bending length increase, the force applied to the upper punch can increase substantially.

For these applications, tooling strength becomes a critical consideration.

The 180 ton/m capacity makes this punch particularly suitable for customers working with:

• Thick plate
• Heavy-gauge sheet metal
• High-strength materials
• Heavy industrial components
• Applications requiring substantial bending force
• Repeated high-load production

This gives the tool a clear application advantage over conventional upper punches with lower rated load capacities.

The combination of:

180 Ton/m Capacity + R4 Tip Radius + Heavy-Duty Structure

creates a tooling solution specifically oriented toward high-force and thick-material bending applications.

---

R4 Tip Radius for Heavy-Duty Forming

Another defining characteristic of this model is its relatively large R4 tip radius.

Compared with sharper R0.6, R1, or similar small-radius punches, the R4 working radius provides a more substantial tip geometry.

For thick plate applications, this can provide several practical advantages:

• More robust punch-tip geometry
• Larger contact radius with the material
• Reduced concentration of force at an extremely sharp punch tip
• Better suitability for thicker material
• Improved durability in high-force applications
• Suitable geometry for applications requiring a larger inside bend radius

The R4 radius therefore complements the tool's 180 ton/m high load capacity, reinforcing its positioning as a heavy-duty press brake punch.

The actual workpiece inside radius depends on material thickness, material properties, die opening, bending method, and process parameters and should not be determined from the punch radius alone.

---

60° Punch Geometry for Specialized Bending

The 60° punch angle provides a working geometry suitable for applications requiring a more acute forming angle than conventional 85°, 86°, 88°, or 90° tooling.

This geometry can be useful for:

• 60° profile bending
• Acute-angle forming
• Overbending applications
• Special structural profiles
• Thick plate forming
• Multi-stage bending
• Specialized industrial components

Depending on the required finished geometry, a 60° punch can also provide additional forming flexibility when material springback must be considered.

The final bend angle depends on the complete tooling combination and bending process, including the lower die geometry, material type, material thickness, bending force, and machine settings.

---

Heavy-Duty Tooling for Industrial Production

This model is designed differently from light-duty or general-purpose upper punches.

Its primary objective is to provide a combination of:

High Tooling Strength + Large R4 Tip Radius + 180 Ton/m Capacity

for demanding industrial bending applications.

This makes the tool particularly suitable for manufacturers producing:

• Heavy machinery
• Industrial equipment
• Structural components
• Construction equipment
• Heavy fabricated parts
• Thick metal components

For customers processing thick or high-strength materials, the complete bending process should always be evaluated before selecting the tooling.

Important factors include:

• Material type
• Material tensile strength
• Plate thickness
• Bending length
• Lower die opening
• Required inside radius
• Bending method
• Required tonnage
• Press brake capacity
• Tooling load capacity

The actual working force must remain within both the tooling capacity and press brake machine limits.

Product Details & Manufacturing Quality

The upper punch is manufactured from 42CrMo alloy steel, providing high strength, toughness, wear resistance, and durability for demanding press brake operations.

The working area is heat treated to approximately HRC 54 ± 2, helping improve wear resistance and dimensional stability during repeated industrial production.

Precision machining is applied to the critical working surfaces to maintain the specified 60° punch geometry and R4 tip radius.

For a tool designed to withstand up to 180 ton/m, manufacturing quality and structural consistency are particularly important.

The R4 tip provides a more robust working profile than a very sharp small-radius tip, while the overall tooling structure is designed for demanding bending applications.

The combination of:

60° Angle + R4 Tip + 120 mm Effective Height + 180 Ton/m Capacity

makes this model particularly suitable for heavy-duty and thick-plate press brake bending.

Standard & Fully Customizable TRUMPF Type Press Brake Tooling

We manufacture both standard TRUMPF Type press brake tooling and fully customized heavy-duty tooling solutions.

All of our press brake tooling can be customized according to the customer's machine, material, workpiece geometry, required bending force, and production requirements.

Customers can send us:

• 2D workpiece drawings
• 3D models
• Bending drawings
• Existing tooling drawings
• Press brake machine specifications
• Material and thickness information
• Photos and dimensions of existing tooling
• Workpiece samples

Our engineering team provides a free press brake tooling design service.

For thick-plate applications, customers can provide the material type, material thickness, bending length, required angle, required inside radius, and machine specifications, allowing us to evaluate the tooling requirements more accurately.

Customization options include:

• Punch angle
• Tip radius
• Effective tooling height
• Tooling width
• Working section dimensions
• Load-bearing structure
• Tooling length
• Segmented tooling lengths
• Reinforced tooling structures
• Special working profiles
• Machine-specific mounting dimensions
• Customized upper punches
• Customized lower dies
• Complete customized punch and die sets

For high-tonnage applications, we can also evaluate required bending force, tooling strength, lower die opening, workpiece geometry, material properties, and press brake capacity before manufacturing.

This enables us to design the tooling around the customer's actual thick-plate bending application, rather than simply selecting a standard tooling profile.

Custom TRUMPF Type Heavy-Duty Tooling for Thick Plate

Thick plate bending places significantly greater demands on press brake tooling than conventional thin-sheet forming.

For customers currently using TRUMPF original tooling or requiring corresponding tooling for their press brake systems, WYS Machinery can provide TRUMPF Type heavy-duty tooling solutions according to actual machine and bending requirements.

This 60° R4 punch with 180 ton/m capacity is specifically positioned for customers requiring increased tooling strength for thick materials.

If a standard tooling profile cannot satisfy the required tonnage, radius, angle, or workpiece geometry, we can customize the tool height, width, working radius, punch angle, tooling length, load-bearing structure, and other dimensions.

Customers can provide their workpiece drawings and material information, and our engineering team can provide free tooling design assistance before production.
