STEFA VHX Reverse-Bend Automation
The STEFA VHX can reduce turning of long profiles with opposing bends. Automatic production depends on whether each intermediate shape remains accessible to the positioning system and clears the tooling.

ERBEND MFE Radius Bending for Curved Panels
The ERBEND MFE supports radius programming with ERFOLD BASIC. Match curved-panel geometry, bend segmentation, tooling clearance and material compensation to the job before choosing numerical or graphical control.

ERBEND MFE vs. Gantry-Automated CNC Folding
Schröder’s August 18, 2026 gantry announcement adds loading and unloading around its MAK 4 Evolution UD. Compare that handling scope with operator-assisted ERBEND MFE folding.

STEFA VHB Long Folder for Tapered Profiles
The STEFA VHB pairs long sheet-metal folding with conical backgauging for tapered profiles. Material capacity, return clearance, and turning requirements determine application fit.

Cadrex Expands Data-Center Rack Capacity
Cadrex’s new rack-focused capacity spans punch/laser processing, panel bending, robotic press-brake forming, hardware insertion, and welding. The investment illustrates a multi-process strategy—not a universal case for automation.

Erbend MFD for Box-and-Pan and Profile Parts
The Erbend MFD offers two clamping-tool geometries on a rotating beam for shops mixing box-and-pan work with straight profiles. Actual part clearance, bend sequence, and model capacity determine whether the machine fits a specific job.
-
STEFA VHX Double Folder for Roofing Sheet Metal
The STEFA VHX double folder may fit long roofing and architectural blanks that need bends in both directions. Compare its application with a conventional folder, press brake, roll former, and roof seamer.
-
ERBEND MFE CNC Folder for Long Sheet Metal Parts
The ERBEND MFE METAL FOLDING MACHINE fits repeatable long-profile work when supported sheet handling, CNC positioning, and programmable folding matter more than press-brake tonnage or deep tooling access.
-
STEFA VH315 for Thin-Sheet Cutting and Folding
The STEFA VH315 combines folder bending with a built-in shear and slitting function for suitable thin-sheet profiles. It fits variable roofing trim, flashings, rectangular profiles, narrow U-flanges, and custom architectural work when the material, blank, geometry, and feature requirements stay within the machine’s envelope.
