HMMI is Expanding America’s Oversized FabricatiOn Capabilities in the Summer Of 2025!
Horizontal Machining & Manufacturing Inc. is proud to position ourselves as the only North American oversized metal fabrication provider for bigger-than-oversized manufacturing requirements. Our newest addition, the tandem Durma press brake, is the largest and most advanced CNC hydraulic press brake in the country. This powerful machine boasts a massive 60’ forming length, an industry-leading throat depth of almost 5’, and a 4’ stroke depth, enabling us to meet the immense needs of American OEMs currently working with overseas manufacturers for oversized fabrication.
Tandem Durma Press Brake: PrecisiOn Metal Bending On a Massive Scale
Utilizing the latest advanced technologies and 10-axis forming capabilities, the Durma press brake rapidly creates precision results down the entire 60’ length of any product geometry, material grade, or thickness. This powerful machine combines a state-of-the-art hydro-mechanical crowning system with highly sophisticated programming that comes together to reach and maintain the smallest bending tolerances and forming consistency in the longest industrial components. Our newest Durma, with a motorized adjustable V-Die and top punch tip exchangers spanning the entire length of the press brake, minimizes the tooling changeover downtime, efficiently and consistently producing the highest quality in both low-mix and high-mix production requirements.
AutOmated fOr Safety and Efficiency
HMMI’s largest hydraulic press brake is paired with advanced automated material handling capabilities, allowing HMMI to form any product geometry, material length, and thickness without an operator handling the material once it is moved onto the platform while also ensuring a safe and ergonomic work environment. Once the part is formed, the automatic extraction system moves the part to the next operation. At the same time, another piece is loaded onto the front-feeding pneumatic pusher system, and the process begins again. Separating the operator from the material handling processes enhances workplace safety while reducing cycle time, allowing for higher productivity and efficiency.
OnshOre YOur Over-Oversized PrecisiOn Metal Bending
Combining all these factors, this press brake will be the only one in the United States with the size, versatility, and automated capabilities to handle any part for all industries, regardless of the size, complexity, or required volume. In the summer of 2025, OEMs can onshore their massive metal fabrication projects with HMMI. Expanding our forming capacity to rival our European counterparts will also allow OEMs to change their fabricated designs from multiple pieces welded together to complete the weldment assembly down to one single formed part. Either way, HMMI is helping reduce costs and resetting the standard for quality in oversized fabrication.
