HOCHSTRATE FOLDING MACHINE

Description

The Hochstrate Folding Machine is engineered to meet the demands of modern metal fabrication with precision, strength, and flexibility. Backed by over 40 years of innovation, Hochstrate has developed a wide range of machines designed to deliver exceptional performance at a competitive price point. Its robust welded steel construction and optimized power transmission system ensure consistent bending accuracy while maintaining durability and efficiency.

Capable of handling a wide variety of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and plastics, this machine supports bending widths from 500 mm to 8000 mm and sheet thicknesses up to 25 mm. The fully hydraulic upper and bending beams provide smooth, controlled operation, while electronic positioning and Siemens PLC control ensure repeatable, high-quality results.

Advanced features such as graphical touchscreen control, programmable backgauge positions, and automatic sheet thickness detection reduce setup time and improve productivity. With options for radius bending, cone bending, and customizable tooling configurations, the Hochstrate Folding Machine delivers unmatched versatility for complex bending applications.
