The Ultimate Fully Automatic Wrap Brake: Boost Your Shop’s Output Today
Modernize Your Duct Work Today
The Ductformer Fully Automatic Wrap Brake (DB-60/72) is built to help your shop work much faster. This smart machine takes sheet metal parts and bends them into ‘L’ shapes, ‘U’ shapes, or full boxes. To begin with, it is important to note that this Brake fits into almost any current Duct Line. Therefore, you can upgrade your shop easily without buying all new gear. As a result, you save money while increasing your capacity.
Simple Setup for Better Results
This machine is a great choice for growing businesses. Specifically, it reduces the need for manual labor on every single bend. Consequently, your team can focus on other tasks while the machine handles the heavy lifting. In this way, you can get more done in a single shift than ever before.
Step-by-Step: How the Machine Works
The process is very simple for any operator to learn. First, a metal section moves onto the Conveyor. Then, the machine pauses so the grip feed can grab the part and square it up. Next, the feed moves the metal into the bending area. At this point, it uses a set program to find the right spot, clamps down, and makes a sharp 90-degree bend.
Flexible Bending Options
Following the first bend, the machine can repeat the steps for a full wrap. On the other hand, it can push the part out if you only need an ‘L’ shape. Because the controls are so simple, your team can learn to use it in no time. Furthermore, this flexibility allows you to switch between jobs quickly.
Top Tier Parts and Advanced Tech
We built this machine to last for years of heavy use. For example, it uses a bright color touch screen that is very easy to read. In addition, it has a strong pneumatic system that keeps the pressure steady.
Reliable Shop Solutions
Because of these features, you spend less time fixing the machine and more time finishing jobs. Moreover, it is designed to run all day without slowing down. Overall, it is a reliable workhorse for any busy shop environment.
