ACCU-BEND

The ACCU-BEND is the only machine in the world to completely layout, notch, flange (bend the notched 13 mm flange), and completely bend the full final shape of the channel letter return. No other machine on the world comes close! What normally would take 30 to 45 minutes to shape and form by hand, the ACCU-BEND completes perfectly in about 4 to 5 minutes.

Say goodbye to hand brakes and radius pipes!!!
The ACCU-BEND can produce all types of channel letters, including the most common traditional letter, with a notched and flanged bottom edge used for attaching the back, welded letters with a straight return side wall which is welded to the letter back, reverse channel letters which have the fronts welded to the straight return wall, and back lit channel letters, which allow light to be seen escaping from the back of the letter. 

   

The ACCU-BEND machine excepts .dxf formated files from your favorite Sign software. Having already produced the artwork for your aluminum backs and plastic faces, just output the .dxf file, select the letters to be bent, and remove the completed letters. It's that simple. With the soaring cost of labor, why would you want to bend channel letters by hand?
The ACCU-BEND machines are covered by a full one year warranty, covering both parts and labor. Unlimited phonic support for the life of the machines.

The Accu-Bend machine which we sell is the only machine in the world to completely notch, flange and completely bend the complete channel letter. You will still need to form the shapes of the letters by hand using radius pipes and handbrakes.  This is nineteen century technology. The amount of money saved on labor cost would allow for you to pay for the machine within a year.  Then you are making all of your future letters labor free and putting all the savings in the bank.  Also if you manufacture welded letters, our machine will also bend those letters for you.

The Accu-Bend can also bend every vector line of the most complicated letters identical.  By hand you could not even bend two the same.  The slight differences would cause you to create different letter faces matched to only fit one letter.  In the future letters that need to be fixed can be done from the same computer file, you do not have to trace the letter and match it by hand.

Not everyone can purchase the Accu-Bend machine,  but by throwing away about  50,000 on old technology, your company will never be able to compete with the companies that are automating with fully automatic equipment. Just ask the many customers of ours that have our machines. I would love to show you further how our machine will out perform and increase your profits over the competition.

The ACCU-BEND is installed and your company is trained on-site producing channel letter returns within the first day. The machine is so easy to use, any one at your company can produce the highest quality letter within no time.
The letter bending machine keeps the production time for a channel letter return very short: between 600 and 800% faster than manual bending.
The computer-controlled Accu-Bend machine can bend a letter to your exact specifications in just a few minutes, including a bottom notched flange. The machine shapes corners and curves with equal ease. The completed letter is then ready for the aluminum back to be clinched, stapled riveted, or welded on. The Accu-Bend machine has a production capability equivalent to about seven people.
The width or depth of the channel letter coil can range from 30 to 240 mm. The aluminum used can vary in thickness from 0,8 to 1,5 mm.
The Accu-Bend comprises two component pieces: a computer console, a motorized material-feed table which can accommodate up to 180 kg. of material and keeps material from uncoiling, and finally the bending machine. A true heavyweight, the machine consumes only 3650 x 1820 mm. space but weighs about 1,800 pounds.
With the Accu-Bend, the only manual steps involve loading/unloading metal-coil stock material and final assembly of the finished letter. Using this machine, a standard, 400 mm. channel letter takes approximately five minutes to produce.
