When you purchase a press brake or a shear, it is important to consider the requirement you have for a back gauge system on your piece of machinery. The backgauge system on a press brake or shear is a mechanical system that communicates with the main control of the particular piece of machinery. The backgauge makes it possible to position the material to be sheared or bent into its exact desired position, according to what has been programmed into the control. Many press brakes or shears operate with multiple axis and the backgauge controls the exact position on each one of the axis.
