High-Tonnage Structural Bending for Defense & Machinery

From heavy equipment mounting brackets to armored defense chassis components, Fabtron's TRUMPF V170 delivers the clamping rigidity and deep throat clearance needed to form high-tensile materials without die cracking or angular springback error.

Heavy Machine Skids

Forming 3/8" and 1/2" base channels with tight flange squareness for structural generator enclosures, pump bases, and industrial tooling frames.

Deep Channel Bending

Equipped with extended gooseneck punches and deep-throat tooling geometries that prevent return-flange collisions on tall box and U-channel profiles.

Springback Compensation

Calibrated CNC angle corrections tailored to high-strength steels (A36, Grade 50, DOMEX) to overcome elastic springback.

Frequently Asked Engineering Questions

Detailed answers regarding our Plainville facility capabilities, material certifications, testing protocols, and defense contract compliance.

Q: Can Fabtron bend high-strength or abrasion-resistant steels?

Yes, we regularly form high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels, Domex, and Hardox/AR400 plate using generous punch radii that prevent outer fiber fracture.
