COVO ENGINEERING REFERENCE
Press Brake Tooling Applications
COVO tooling supports sheet metal bending, precision fabrication, automotive components, elevator panels, electrical cabinets and stainless-steel processing. Tool selection depends on the finished profile, machine interface, material, thickness, bend length and surface requirement.

Which tooling suits each application?
| Application | Common tooling | Key review point |
|---|---|---|
| General sheet metal | V-dies, standard and gooseneck punches | Angle, flange clearance and repeatability |
| Precision fabrication | Acute punches, narrow dies and offset tools | Measured tolerance and stable setup datum |
| Automotive parts | Heavy-duty punches, multi-V dies and hemming tools | Volume, material variation and load |
| Elevator panels | Large-radius, box-and-pan and flattening tools | Visible surface and long-part support |
| Electrical cabinets | Standard punches, V-dies and corner tools | Return-flange and box clearance |
| Stainless processing | Mark-free dies, inserts and polished contact surfaces | Surface protection and springback |
What should be sent for an application review?
- A dimensioned section drawing or representative sample
- Machine model, tooling interface and usable working length
- Material grade, thickness range and bend length
- Critical tolerance, visible face and production quantity
