This used Chicago box and pan brake is the culmination of many years’ experience in the development, manufacture and application of hand bending brakes.
This used Chicago box and pan brake is the culmination of many years’ experience in the development, manufacture and application of hand bending brakes. Some of the primary benefits: the machine can be used to form a box or pan having four sides and a bottom from one sheet of metal. In addition, a narrow return flange on the top of a box can be made, as in the manufacture of electric switch boxes. Nose bars are quickly interchangeable so that special bars such as radius types call be used. Radius bends can be made with round nose bars. Tubular shapes can be formed by extending nose bars between fingers. With the fingers set in the regular position, large tubular shapes can be formed by allowing the metal to spring out of shape against the top side of the fingers. In most metals the shape is distorted only while it is being finished up. As soon as the tube is removed from the brake, the springs back to the correct shape. Deep channels can be formed with the help of the finger extension. The standard assortments of fingers are included with this used Chicago brake. Fingers are made of rolled steel bars for maximum strength and light weight. Adjustment or removal of fingers is easily accomplished by use of the convenient screws.
