If you’re looking for reliability, flexibility, and compatibility in your bending tools, European press brake tooling is a great choice. Trusted by thousands of fabricators worldwide, it’s the go-to system for everything from small job shops to automated bending cells.

At Machnist, we provide high-precision European-style press brake tooling compatible with major press brake brands, including Amada, Durma, Yawei, and our own Machnist machines.


🧩 What Is European Press Brake Tooling?

European tooling, also known as Euro-style tooling, refers to a standardized punch and die system that features:

  • A narrow tang design for upper punches

  • Quick-release compatibility with common clamping systems

  • Standard lengths like 835mm, 415mm, and segmented tool sets

  • Wide range of tool profiles for bending, hemming, and radius forming

Unlike American or Wila systems, Euro tooling is lighter and easier to handle—ideal for fast manual changeovers or modular setups.


🔧 Machnist European Tooling Options

We manufacture and supply a full range of European press brake punches and dies, including:

Upper Tools (Punches):

  • Straight punches

  • Gooseneck punches for return flange work

  • Acute angle punches (30°, 60°, 85°)

  • Radius punches

  • Custom profiles based on part drawings

Lower Tools (Dies):

  • Single-V and Multi-V dies

  • Narrow dies for precision forming

  • Bottom radius dies

  • Hemming tools

  • Soft inserts or non-marking surfaces for aluminum and stainless

All Machnist tooling is made from hardened 42CrMo or equivalent materials and precision-ground to ±0.01mm.
