Thank you!

I replied on Facebook but figured I’d reply here as well in case someone else sees it. But if you adjust the slow sleep approach slider on the right hand side of the machine so that it bottoms out before going into bending mode, it will not apply full pressure to the tooling and you can just self center the lower with the upper punch and then clamp it in place

This is a 220 3 phase machine so I’m just running an American rotary ADX 10 on here to make the 3rd leg of 220 3 phase.

Thanks man! I will have to try and explain it better, I thought I went into it a little in one of the current videos. But it has a mechanical stop physically inside of each cylinder. The cylinders have a shaft running between them up top that a motor is connected to. It spins a worm gear that spins a shaft inside the cylinders to adjust that mechanical stop. So the cylinders physically bottom out on that stopping point every time you hit the down pedal and that is what needs to adjust for your different angles. Some companies toss a high speed servo on machines that are meant to slow speed adjust and I have seen them wipe out the worm gears from moving to fast. So when you see other machines at a similar price point for “faster adjustments” be weary that it’s probably for a reason that the price isn’t like $8000 more than these units. Because that is what the proper high speed adjustment takes. You can special order a brake with that setup from Tommy if you desire the angle change to be faster. It will come with a Delem controller, high speed servos and gears rated for that higher speed. Not just a servo slapped on top of low speed unpolished worm gears.

@@adamdeuling5720 Thanks for the detailed response. I really appreciate it. I'll run through your videos again to see if I missed the explanation. I know this higher speed change is a price adder for next level up machines from competitors and that the Tommy is price competitive for the features it has. Maybe I'll look you up next time I'm headed toward the dunes!

Thank you! Honestly I used to know all the prices but with the way the world has been I haven’t been able to keep up with the price fluctuations so I would just give my buddy Jason a ring or an email over there for a quick price. Let him know I sent ya. sales@tommyindustrial.com, +18448953316

I will. Thanks for getting back.

Why? I’ve bent 4’ of 3/16 mild steel with it with a 1.25” lower V. Does everything I need for my small prototype business. I don’t do much over 1/4” and usually bend 1/8” or under for most components.
