Morgan Rushworth XPE Servo Electric Press Brakes

The Morgan Rushworth XPE range of servo electric pressbrakes are designed with a belt and pulley system providing low energy useage, high bending cycle times and high accuracy. The range spans from 1550mm x 40 tonne machines up to 3100mm x 100 tonne, with all models equipped with the ESA VIS-875W 2D CNC touch screen controller. The combination of consistent pressure across the beam from the pulley system, high positioning accuracy of 0.01mm and the O frame design with virtually no flex results in a level of accuracy far higher than in conventional hydraulic machines. The side frames are fitted at each end of the machine meaning that the backgauge can be used for the full width of the machine to the maximum depth. The XPE servo electric press brakes are far more reliable than hydraulic machines with no rams, seals, pumps, pipes etc resulting in less down time.

Why Choose an XPE Press Brake ?

Approximately 50% less energy use compared with hydraulic machines
Approximately 30% faster cycle times
Approximately 75% less servicing costs than hydraulic machines
Green technology – no oil or hazardous waste affecting the environment
Even pressure across the bending beam negates requirement for crowning systems
frame design results in minimum distortion
Almost noiseless operation
X and R axis backgauge
ESA VIS-875W 2D CNC touch screen controller
Offline programming functionality on office PC

Plate Rolling & How to Choose the Right Machine

Unlocking Efficiency & Precision: Why UK Manufacturers Are Moving to Tube Laser Cutting

In modern metal manufacturering, staying competitive requires balancing speed, precision, and operational efficiency. Traditional tube processing methods, such as sawing, drilling, punching, and manual deburring, are notoriously labor-intensive and prone to human error. Each additional handling stage introduces potential for delay, increased costs, and inconsistency.

The Impact of the Defence Sector on UK Metal Fabrication Demand

UK defence spending is rising at a pace not seen since the Cold War, and for metal fabricators with the right capabilities, that represents a significant commercial opportunity. Understanding where the demand is coming from, and what it means for workshop investment, is worth the attention of any fabrication business looking to grow.

A unique solution for welding fume extraction

In recent years, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has placed welding fumes under closer scrutiny, with scientific evidence linking exposure to a range of health issues, including lung cancer, neurological disorders, and asthma. Employers have a duty to provide a safe and healthy working environment for their staff, which includes putting effective controls in place to manage exposure to welding fumes — general ventilation on its own is not enough to adequately mitigate the risks. Although welders themselves may be adequately protected by PPE, the HSE has placed particular emphasis on other employees who share the same workspace.
