V24 30° Single-V Press Brake Lower Die for Acute-Angle Bending

This V24 30° press brake lower die uses a single-V structure for sheet metal forming applications that require a very acute groove angle together with increased forming clearance.

The illustrated configuration features a 24 mm V-opening, 30° die angle, 90 mm overall height, 75 mm effective height and 40 mm body width, with a rated load capacity of 60 ton/m.

In this design, the 40 mm body width also serves as the main load-bearing section width, providing a wide and stable supporting structure around the V-groove during bending.

The combination of the V24 opening and 30° groove angle makes this lower die suitable for very acute-angle air bending, pre-bending and multi-stage forming operations.

Compared with smaller V8, V16 and V20 openings in the same 30° tooling family, the V24 configuration provides greater clearance through the forming zone and is better suited to applications requiring a wider V-opening and larger forming space.

30° V-Groove for Very Acute-Angle Forming

The 30° die angle is suitable for applications where the sheet must be formed to a very acute intermediate angle.

Typical forming requirements can include:

• Very acute-angle air bending
• Pre-bending
• Multi-stage forming
• Hemming preparation
• Sharp flange forming
• Forming with springback allowance
• Customized acute-angle sheet metal profiles

The final tooling configuration should be selected according to the material grade, sheet thickness, required angle, bend radius, flange geometry and forming sequence.

V24 Opening for Increased Forming Clearance

The 24 mm V-opening provides more forming clearance than smaller 30° V-opening dies.

This makes the V24 configuration suitable where the customer requires:

• a wider forming zone,
• more clearance around the workpiece,
• a larger expected inside bend radius,
• or a broader sheet metal profile during acute-angle forming.

Different V-openings can be manufactured according to the customer's actual forming requirements.

Full-Width Load-Bearing Structure

For this configuration:

Body Width: 40 mm
Load-Bearing Section Width: 40 mm

The supporting body beneath the V-groove therefore maintains the full width as the main load-bearing section.

The load-bearing width, body geometry and mounting structure can also be customized according to the required capacity and press brake configuration.

Custom Effective Tool Height

The illustrated lower die has a 90 mm overall height and a 75 mm effective working height.

The effective height is not limited to 75 mm. WYS Machinery can customize it according to the customer's press brake configuration, upper tooling combination, machine daylight, clamping system, existing tooling and required working height.

This allows the lower die to be integrated into different tooling systems rather than being limited to the dimensions shown in the drawing.
