Press Brake Service and Repair Guide
Direct answer: Press brake service should start with the machine model, controller type, alarm code, hydraulic status, backgauge behavior, tooling setup, material details, bend program, photos and video. Clear information helps separate controller, backgauge, tooling, hydraulic, electrical and operator setup issues.
Safety note: Press brakes are high-force machines. Do not place hands in the tooling area, bypass guarding or attempt electrical or hydraulic work without qualified personnel.

Common Service Categories
| Issue type | Information to send |
|---|---|
| Controller alarm | Alarm screenshot, controller model, program screen and recent changes. |
| Backgauge issue | Axis behavior, position error, video and backgauge photos. |

Before Requesting Support
- Record a short video of the issue.
- Take photos of tooling, controller screen and backgauge.
- Send material thickness, bend length and V-opening.
- Note whether the issue is new, intermittent or after installation.
- Stop operation if there is abnormal noise, leak or unsafe movement.
Common Mistakes
- Assuming every bend issue is a machine fault.
- Not checking tooling and V-opening.
- Not documenting controller alarms.
- Changing parameters without saving the original settings.
- Operating with visible hydraulic leaks or unsafe behavior.
