Sheet Metal Forming

Bassett Industries, Inc. uses CNC press brake machines driven by CAD/CAM programming for precision bending and forming of sheet metal parts that meet or beat customer requirements and specifications.

Our CNC press brakes are capable of bending and shaping sheet metal with capacities up to 350 tons, and our systems are equipped with a 9 axis back gauge to ensure repeatable positions.

Touch screen programmable CNC controls in our metal forming systems with unlimited offline capabilty program. With the help of our comprehensive set of in-house dies, including radius dies and hemming dies, we offer quick turnaround and short lead times for our CNC bent and formed parts.
