Abstract
A gauge bar assembly is provided with T-nut, quick-action hand clamp brackets to linear bearing blocks of a gauge drive mechanism. Gauge mounting brackets are supported and guided on upstanding tubes in the quick-action clamp brackets. Powered vertical drive for the mounting brackets is provided. A gauge bar having unusually high resistance to bending, due to a unique Y-shaped cross section, is clamped to the gauge mounting brackets. Flip fingers with manually adjustable adjustment wedges, and spring take-up means, are provided for precise horizontal adjustment of gauging fingers toward and away from press brake tooling.
