The collaboration between Bosch Rexroth and Baykal Machinery allowed to create in Turkey a record press brake, with a closing force of 60.000 kilonewtons. The biggest challenge faced by specialists of both companies involved in the project was achieving the enormous force while keeping operation efficient at all times.

This was accomplished by combining a hydraulic Rexroth control block specially designed for this system with two powerful displacement pumps. The press brake achieves fast approach velocity of 50 millimeters per second and a press speed of 6 millimeters per second. And not only the performance data that is astonishing: one of the main requirements was to achieve this performance in a very compact design. The developers succeeded in producing a system that is a mere 8.5 meters long.

As well as press brakes, the Baykal Machinery specializes in systems such as laser and plasma cutting machines, waterjet cutting machines and vertical machining centers for customers all over the world. Bosch Rexroth supported Baykal as early as the project phase of the record-breaking press, as they had done for numerous previous projects.
