Claim:
1. Industrial machine for bending a metallic flat element comprising a side edge, the industrial machine comprising: a support framework configured to stand on a reference surface and extend upwardly from said reference surface; a working deck connected with said support framework and configured to receive said metallic flat element; a bending device arranged in front of said working deck, coupled with said support framework, and configured to bend the side edge of said metallic flat element upwardly, downwardly, or upwardly and downwardly; a handling and supply device operatively connected with said working deck, configured to supply/remove said flat metallic element to/from said bending device, and comprising at least one gripper; an actuator operatively connected with said handling and supply device in order to move the handling and supply device along a vertical direction and/or a horizontal direction determining displacement with respect to said working deck; and a guide; wherein said working deck is movable vertically via said guide while being coupled with said support framework; wherein said working deck is operatively connected with said actuator such that said actuator is configured to move said working deck along said vertical direction in order to place said working deck below and/or above a bending level of said flat metallic element; wherein said working deck includes a plurality of bearing section bars spaced apart and separated from each other, the bearing section bars extending in a linear direction substantially parallel to each other; and wherein said bearing section bars protrude cantilever from said support framework.
