For more information, visit www.ras-systems.com.

 

Cutting Machine • Metform

Metform offers a versatile, compact and efficient cut-to-length machine to produce sheets to feed your folders and press brakes. Specifications include: 16 to 22 gauge; up to 60-inch-wide coils; 120 fpm; seven-roll flattener; flying shear with servo-motor; air-float stacker for non-scratch with side pack discharge; high accuracy; and no pit required. For those who produce metal building trim and flashing, the MetKut will serve all internal blanking needs to improve efficiency and turn better profits. For more information, visit www.metformintl.com.

 

Long Folding System • Roper Whitney

Roper Whitney now manufactures an American-made long folding line: the AutoMax Series. With two classes of machines, it offers more free space, lengths up to 40 feet and up to 9 gauge capacity. The line is ideal for those who create complex profiles and need the flexibility and throughput of a long folding system. The ECS 904 control can auto-sequence the part, show the part in 3-D, and download and read DXF files. Other features include energy-saving hydraulics, back gauges up to 60 inches, and safety features including laser finger detection and an optional auto radius function. For more information, visit www.roperwhitney.com.

 

Gang Slitter • Spar-Marathon

The Super Slitter is a heavy-duty pull-through type slitter that’s designed for use by roofers and sheet-metal contractors. The product features a rugged frame for years of solid, accurate slitting; a gear and chain drive with safety guard; precision-ground, high-carbon, high-chrome tool steel knives as standard equipment; a heavy-gauge steel table for supporting sheets; precision-ground shafts mounted between flanged bearings; and a sheet guide on both sides for safe and accurate slitting. The slitter is easily adjustable for light or heavy gauge, has a sheet capacity of 48 inches wide, and cuts 16 to 30 gauge. For more information, visit www.sparmarathon.ca.

 

Sheet-Metal Slitter • Van Mark Products

The Trim-A-Slitter™ Perforator Combo is designed to offer both cutting/slitting and perforating for the most common steel roofing materials. Users can cut material to width and perforate to create vents and soffits. This unique coil and sheet-metal slitter comes with a high-torque electric motor, two sets of hardened steel knives, perforating dies and a UniStand EZ-Go™ for easy jobsite transportation. For more information, visit www.van-mark.com.

 

Hydraulic Bending Equipment • Formtek

Roto-Die’s unique hydraulic benders are an industry standard in sheet-metal shops throughout the United States. Each sheet-metal brake is a versatile, economical, productive tool. By shifting the selection lever, a single operator can perform all basic sheet-metal forming operations; no dies to change. Roto-Die hydraulic sheet-metal bending equipment is typically used for perimeter-edge materials such as fascia and coping, as well as flashing. For more information, visit www.roto-die.com.

 

Portable Rollforming System • MetalForming

The engineers at Schlebach initially designed a top-quality, single-profile rollformer, but the folks at MetalForming Inc. knew that to meet the requirements of American metal-roofing contractors, they needed a machine that could produce different roof-panel profiles quickly and efficiently, in a factory or out on a jobsite. The result was Quadro Plus, the only machine of its kind with instant changeover from one profile to another by simply rotating tooling cassettes. For more information, visit www.metalforming-usa.com.
