Conical bending with the MAKU

Whether parallel, conical or pluggable! The MAKU motorized folding machine with its unique two-axis back gauge allows craftsmen the option of conical bending of form-fit pluggable profiles with a precision in the tenth of a millimetre range.

On of the most important exhibition machines at the Schröder booth is the versatile MAKU folding machine for 1.5 mm thick sheet metal over a working length of 3200 mm. The machine's outstanding option is conical bending. Building fitters in particular often have to deal with conical bends for parapet or wall covers, roof edge finishes, verge plates or claddings that have to have a slope. Until now, anyone who did not have a long folding machine with the appropriate equipment could only do it manually. The Schröder Group solves this problem with an electronically controlled two-axis back gauge, with which conical and form-fit profiles can be produced with a precision in the tenth of a millimeter range.
