Which tool is used to bend large sections of sheet metal?

  1. drill

  2. lathe

  3. milling machine

  4. press brake

The correct answer is: press brake

A press brake is a machine tool specifically designed for bending large sections of sheet metal. A drill is used for creating holes in material, a lathe for shaping cylindrical pieces of material, and a milling machine for cutting and drilling solid materials. Therefore, these options are not suitable for bending sheet metal. While all of these options can be used in metalworking, they have different functions and uses.
