Channel Letter Bender Price Comparison
Read documented limits for MM160, MM200, NF220, PF60, PF80, FM130, FM220, AP130, RF130, TR1, and TR2. A blank cell is a limit the current source does not state. Price is confirmed in the quotation, not in this table.
SPECIFICATIONS
Documented limits for all 11 models
Each cell names the published limit for that model. Package size and gross weight are labeled as the shipping package. Net size and net weight for NF220 are not stated. This table does not choose a machine. Side height is the width of the strip fed into the machine and the height of the channel-letter return. It is not the finished letter size. AP, RF, TR, and MM do not promise a side height below 20 mm.

BUYER DECISION SUMMARY
Choose by material, operation, or letter type
Use the table for limits. Use these links for the shortlist. Default-machine sales guidance is not published here.
By material
Which series documents a material stays on the material guide.
By operation
Which series documents an operation stays on the notching, flanging, and slotting guide.
By letter type
Starting shortlists stay on Standard channel letters, Notched and folded returns, Frames, lightboxes, and profiles, Compact rimless letters, One machine for several jobs.
SERIES-ONLY FIELDS
Fields that are not on every series
Mechanism rows stay on the series page that documents them. They are not copied into an empty cell on another model.
Where the other rows live
Cutting and bending system details stay on the MM page. Servo axes stay on the NF220 page. Direction, drive, and tooling stay on the PF page. Gripper feeding and automatic punching stay on the FM page. Five-axis closed-loop control stays on the AP130 page.
NF220 package and net
NF220 package size is 2260 × 1000 × 1920 mm and gross weight is 926 kg. Net size and net weight are not stated. Do not read the package row as a net machine size.
SPECIFICATION FAQ
Specification questions before a quotation
What is the difference between MM160 and MM200?
This table is where the MM160 and MM200 rows differ. The full comparison is on MM160 / MM200.
What is the difference between PF60 and PF80?
This table is where the PF60 and PF80 rows differ. The full comparison is on PF60 / PF80.
How should NF220 size and weight be read?
Package size is 2260 × 1000 × 1920 mm and gross weight is 926 kg. Those figures are the shipping package, not net size or net weight. Net size and net weight are not stated. Length accuracy is 0.2 mm/m.
Are the size numbers the same kind of measurement?
Yes. Each listed width or height is side height: the width of the strip fed into the machine and the height of the channel-letter return. It is not the finished letter size. AP, RF, TR, and MM do not promise a side height below 20 mm.
Where are punching, tooth notching, and file formats listed?
This table lists file formats: DXF, AI, and PLT for MM, NF, FM, AP, and RF; PLT and DXF for TR; DXF for PF. Punching, tooth notching, and the other operation names are in the Channel Letter Notching, Flanging & Slotting Guide.
Does this table approve a machine?
No. It lists documented limits. The shortlist stays on the channel letter bender page, and a quotation confirms the configuration.
