Description
These Panbrake machinery plans of an interesting little panbrake was designed several years ago & because of its configuration allows the forming of closed sheet metal products (unlike the conventional panbrake or pressbrake), utilising mainly simple angle iron off cuts, or in some cases, easily made tooling.
It also has the ability to form radius corners from 3mm up to 12.5mm of any length (up to 650mm) with quickly made tooling.
These Panbrake Machinery Plans are simple to build & as with our other plans from machineryplans.com, these are full working drawings easily understood with every part drawn separately & in most cases redrawn again as an assembly for ultimate understanding. Along with the plans, eighteen pages of comprehensive instructions & over 20 photos of components & various panbrake views are supplied.
