Salvagnini press brake tooling replacement

What replacement tooling does a Salvagnini press brake use?

Salvagnini press brakes built in Italy are most commonly supplied with the Salvagnini-specific interfaces on panel benders interface. That is the starting point for any replacement, and it should be confirmed by measurement before a tool is ordered, because the clamp fitted to the individual machine is what actually decides the tooling.

How do I confirm the tooling interface on a Salvagnini machine?

Measure the tang width and punch height, inspect how the punch is clamped, and measure the die body. Those four observations identify the family on almost every Salvagnini machine without a site visit, and they are what we need in order to quote a replacement.

1. Measure the tang width across its widest point.
2. Measure the punch overall height from the shoulder to the tip.
3. Look for locking pin holes or a retention groove, which indicate a safety tang.
4. Measure the die body width and photograph the clamp with a ruler in shot.

What is worth knowing about Salvagnini tooling?

Salvagnini panel benders use their own tooling architecture rather than a standard press brake tang, so replacement tooling is specified differently. Record the machine model and the tool type, not just the brand.

• Tooling families share nominal dimensions more often than expected, so measure rather than assume.
• The clamp, not the tang alone, decides which holder and tool family will fit.
• If the measurements are ambiguous, a photograph of the clamp with a ruler in shot resolves it.

What do Salvagnini owners usually ask for?

The replacement requests below are the ones that come up most often for machines of this make.

• Tooling for panel bender configurations
• Segments for automatic tool changing systems
• Replacement tooling for high-mix production
• Special profiles for automated cells

What should I send for a Salvagnini tooling quote?

With these six items a replacement can be specified and quoted without a site visit.

1. Salvagnini machine model and year, if known.
2. Measured tang width and punch overall height.
3. A photograph of the clamp with a ruler in the frame.
4. Material grade, thickness range and the radius to be produced.
5. The length and any segment combination you need.
6. Quantity and delivery country.

Salvagnini machine models: replacement tooling by series

Where the machine model is known, the series narrows the tooling requirement further. These pages cover the Salvagnini series we are asked about most.
