NF220 · AUTOMATIC NOTCHING & FOLDING

NF220 Automatic Notching & Folding Channel Letter Bender

Automate alternating-gripper feeding, tooth notching, edge folding, arc forming, and final cutoff for documented flat-aluminum returns from 20 to 220 mm high.

NF220 is documented for 0.8–1.1 mm flat aluminum, 20–220 mm processing height, and a minimum bending radius of 8 mm. No definitive length-accuracy figure is published because the available specifications conflict.Review specifications

BUYER DECISION & FIT

When should a buyer shortlist NF220?

Start with application fit, then confirm the exact material, geometry, tooling, and delivery scope in the quotation. For process boundaries and file preparation, review /channel-letter-benders/notching-flanging-slotting-guide and /channel-letter-benders/file-preparation before sending your material and production file.

Best for

Flat-aluminum returns that require automatic tooth notching, edge folding, arc forming, and final cutoff in one documented workflow.

Confirm the working range

Use the published 20–220 mm processing height, 0.8–1.1 mm thickness, and minimum 8 mm bending radius as the first fit check, then submit the actual file.

Not ideal for

Aluminum profiles, folding coil, stainless steel, mixed-metal production, or any job that requires a definitive accuracy claim before engineering review.

FAQ

NF220 Questions Before You Request a Quote

Is NF220 part of the AP130 product line?

No. AP130 is a separate line for aluminum profiles, flat aluminum, and folding coil. NF220 is a dedicated automatic-notching route for 20-220 mm flat-aluminum returns.

What material range is documented?

The product specification lists flat aluminum from 0.8 to 1.1 mm thick, a processing height of 20 to 220 mm, and a minimum bending radius of 8 mm.

Which steps does NF220 automate?

The document lists alternating-gripper feeding, tooth notching, edge folding, arc bending, and final cutoff under eight-axis full-servo control.
