Resources
What we publish, in one place — the catalogue, the calculators, the guides and the documentation you can request for a specific machine. No forms gating PDFs, no brochures dressed up as guides.
Catalogue and range
- KECMT product catalogue (PDF) — the machine range, configurations and specifications in one downloadable document.
- Press brake range at a glance — the full WC67Y/WC67K range with tonnage, bed length and control options as a web table.
- All machines — the full catalogue organised by the constraint that binds you, not by tonnage.
Free calculators and selectors
- Press brake tonnage calculator — material, thickness, bend length and V-opening in, the tonnage you need out.
- Bend allowance and blank length calculator — bend allowance, bend deduction and developed flat length.
- V-die selector — the right V-opening for your thickness, and what it does to minimum flange and tonnage per foot.
- Machine selector — your constraints in, the machine line that fits out — including where it does not.
Guides
The guides library is organised by the stage of the decision it helps with. The starting points most buyers need:
- How to buy a press brake — define the part envelope, write a spec, compare quotes, run the acceptance checklist.
- How much tonnage you need — working backward from the part, not the headline number.
- Importing from China — landed cost line by line, duty, lead time and the terms worth insisting on.
- Press brake safety — guarding, stop time and lockout, for buyers and operators alike.
Reference tables
- Sheet metal gauge chart — steel, stainless and aluminium, in inches and millimetres.
- Glossary — the vocabulary, in plain language.
- FAQ hub — the most-asked questions, each linked to the full answer.
Documentation you can request
For a specific machine and serial number we can supply the inspection and test record, electrical drawings, hydraulic schematic, material certificates, and the CE declaration and technical file for CE-marked machines. Ask on the contact form or by email at [email protected] — the quality control page describes what each document contains.
For machine readers
This site publishes llms.txt and llms-full.txt for AI agents, an RSS feed, and an HTML sitemap. Everything published here is free to read without a form — the catalogue and the guides exist to make buyers better informed, not to capture leads.
