    CNC machines for a printing press

    Hello everyone.

    We are a printing and packaging company and we want to open up our own die making section.Also we want to make it cnc based. To do that what type of machines do we need? Is there any CNC based steel rule bending machine?
    Unfortunately no one in our country is making CNC based dies so there is no option for me to do some research. Please help me with information regarding what types of machines we need to set up our die making section. Also what brand of machines are preferable

    Thanks

    Do you intend making dies or bending steel sheet?
    Is it a CNC brake you need like this?

    Or if curves spirals or conic shape, then a Rolling machine is required.
