CNC Folding

CNC Folding – Precision Metal Bending with Accuracy & Efficiency

At DMS Laser Profiles, we offer professional CNC folding services using state-of-the-art LVD press brake machinery, delivering fast, accurate results for clients across the UK. Our equipment and software allow us to form complex parts quickly and precisely, whether for one-off prototypes or high-volume production.

“Our in-house secondary operations facility accelerates delivery with quicker setup and more complex folding capability.”

Advanced Folding Technology

We operate a high-capacity LVD 135/30 CNC press brake, with:

135 tonnes of pressure

Maximum bending length of 3050mm

Open height of 400mm for larger profiles

This machine is equipped with the Easy Form Laser (EFL) monitoring and correction system, which eliminates trial bending by measuring angles in real time (45° to 150°) and automatically compensating for variations in material consistency. This guarantees accurate and repeatable bends on every cycle.

We’ve recently added a second press brake—an 80-tonne LVD PPEB model with a 2-metre capacity and EFL precision monitoring—perfect for smaller, high-specification components.

Intelligent Software Integration

Using Cadman software in conjunction with SolidWorks, we streamline every stage of the process—from flat pattern development to folding simulation. Clients can submit 2D and 3D drawings in formats such as .SAT and .STEP, which we can import directly into our system for seamless production.

Our CAD design team can assist with drawing optimisation, and our system allows online and offline programming for maximum flexibility.
Integrated Services for Faster Turnaround

CNC folding is just one part of our complete in-house manufacturing capability. We work closely with our teams across sheet metal work, laser cutting, and ancillary services to streamline production and reduce lead times.
