Press brake tools from Italy
Historically
Italy had a big quantity of separate press brake manufacturers. Lots of them
are unknown outside of Italy; lots of them closed, came to bankruptcy or were
sold so today Italy lost the big potential and the leading place for press
brakes manufacturing.
In spite of
this Italy has the top place for the production of press brake tools with the dozens of strong and professional companies, known worldwide.
Good quality, competitive prices, short delivery times make Italian tools the powerful
competitor even against the Asian products. Hundreds of brand names including
the press brake machines manufacturers are used for sale of Italian tooling all
over the world. Why Italy is so powerful on this market even today? Together
with the heavy background it is necessary to say Italy is one of the strongest
players for different metal parts production by turning, milling and grinding
operations.
As the
country of lots of private and family businesses Italy grew with the growing of
small workshops (in Italian “Officina meccanica”) and even today there are huge
quantity of Italian sub suppliers for different kind of products. So finally
press brake tools are the one of the final products which had a start in
workshops. Horizontal cooperation also helped to grow – for example today
almost all manufacturers of press brake tools use one or two the same partners
to make the tool hardening outside of the main production.
The last
word is the technical school. Italians like engineering, want to be engineers
and have a lot of engineers to achieve the power at the industrial market.
Without any doubts – tooling “Made in Italy” is the mark of the quality.
