FAQ

Can the same machine produce stainless steel hooks? Yes - change the bend tooling and program; the platform handles iron, stainless, aluminum and copper rod.

What is the smallest batch the machine is worth running? Because changeover is program-driven, single prototypes and small batches are economical.
