Hello all.
Looking at box pan folders.
found one at 4ft, so wide enough for my jobs etc. Yet to go and have a look at it, but before i do i wanted your in put.
Most of the time I'll be folding up to 3mm thick, maybe 2ft wide. Im assuming a machine rated to say 2mm at full width (4ft) would manage 3mm at half its max capacity? Or is it not that simple?
Also would need to fold 4mm at about 150mm wide, possible?
All mild steel.
Machine would be manual with counter weights.
Dont really have the budget space or 3phase power for a pressbrake and tooling etc.
Thoughts and advice please?
