Magnum 50 Inch Magnetic Sheet Metal Bending Brake (EB1250)
Bend complex shapes and enclosed boxes that are impossible on standard mechanical brakes. The Magnum MAG-EB1250 uses a powerful 6-ton electromagnet to clamp material, eliminating the need for bulky upper beams and fingers. This open-throat design allows for unlimited box depth and the ability to fold return bends and deep channels with extreme precision.
Features
- Electromagnetic clamping - provides up to 6 tons of force for secure, non-slip bending across the full 1250mm width.
- Unlimited box depth - because the clamping bar is a separate piece, you aren't limited by machine geometry.
- Safety interlock system - requires a two-handled start for pre-clamping to protect fingers before full force is applied.
- Foot switch control - allows the operator to initiate clamping while keeping hands on the workpiece for alignment.
- Bending stop - included for repeatable, accurate production of identical angles.

Q: Does this require a special electrical circuit? A: It runs on a standard nominal current of 6 Amps, but ensure your circuit can handle the surge during full clamping.
Q: Can I improvise my own clamping bars? A: Yes, you can use any piece of mild steel to create custom shapes for unique folding requirements.
