Cable trays are essential for routing and protecting electrical wiring in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure projects. To manufacture them efficiently and accurately, you need a dedicated cable tray press brake—built for speed, precision, and repeatability.
At Machnist, we provide customized CNC press brake solutions specifically designed for cable tray production, including wide U-shaped trays, perforated trays, solid-bottom trays, and ladder-style trays.
⚙️ Why Use a Press Brake for Cable Trays?
A press brake is ideal for cable tray bending due to its:
📏 Accurate angle control
⚡ Fast cycle time for high-volume runs
🧩 Flexibility in tray size, depth, and material
🔄 Ability to produce both straight bends and return flanges
Whether you’re working with stainless steel, galvanized steel, or aluminum, a CNC cable tray press brake gives you the edge in quality and consistency.
