Shears & Press Brakes Controls Retrofitting

Decades-old press brakes and shears, built to high standards in their era, have immense potential to be transformed into exceptionally capable machines through retrofitting. By integrating new CNC controls and redesigning their electrical and operational systems, these machines can achieve modern performance levels. While press brake construction techniques and hydraulic systems have seen minimal changes over the decades, the retrofitting process focuses on electronics, hardware, and software—fields that have advanced significantly. A retrofitted press brake or shear can be reborn with entirely new capabilities, enhanced performance, and a long-lasting, problem-free operational life.
