When standard machines fall short in size or strength, a tandem press brake becomes the go-to solution. For industries working with oversized workpieces—like light pole manufacturing, bridge beams, or heavy-duty steel panels—Machnist provides industrial-grade tandem CNC press brake machines designed for power, precision, and productivity.
🔧 What Is a Tandem Press Brake?
A tandem press brake refers to two (or more) CNC press brakes connected and synchronized to operate as a single system. This setup allows you to bend extra-long or ultra-heavy workpieces that are too large for a conventional machine.
Whether you’re working with 6-meter, 8-meter, or 12-meter parts, a tandem press brake can handle the job effortlessly. Each unit can also be used independently for smaller parts, adding flexibility to your production.
✅ Example: Machnist’s 2×6000mm tandem system can handle 12-meter poles, panels, or structural sheets in one smooth operation.
🏗️ Ideal for Light Pole Manufacturing
Light poles, traffic sign posts, and tapered columns often require long, symmetrical bending with consistent angles. Tandem press brakes are ideal because they:
Maintain accuracy over extended lengths
Reduce handling time for long sheets
Allow forming of tapered or conical shapes using custom tooling
Support integration with robot arms or feeding lines
If you’re in street light pole fabrication, a tandem CNC press brake machine is a long-term investment that brings both scale and efficiency.
