Abstract
The invention relates to a bending machine () for metal sheets (). The bending machine () comprises a machine frame () and a support device () which is designed to hold the metal sheet () to be bent, a support surface () of the support device () being arranged in a horizontal plane with the support surface () of a clamping base (). The support device () has at least a first support module () and a second support module () having a first support surface () and a second support surface (). At least one of the support modules () is horizontally displaceable in the longitudinal direction () of the bending machine () and as a result a first gap () extending at right angles to the blank-holder edge () can be set between the two support modules (). The support modules () each have at least a first support element () and a second support element () with a second gap () located between the support elements (), which second gap () is oriented parallel to the blank-holder edge ().
