Schechtl UK-DB - Double bender

Details

The UK-DB is a “multi-talent” specialist for complex, small-batch, and one-off profile production.

Applications & Best uses

Complex Geometries: Ideal for producing boxes, cassettes, and profiles with delicate details or bends in opposing directions.
No-Rotate Bending: Specifically designed for profiles that require “bending both ways,” significantly reducing handling time for large or awkward workpieces.
Segmented Versatility: Equipped with segmented tools on the upper, lower, and bending beams, allowing for the creation of intricate shapes and closed-off forms.

The UK-DB advantage

Dual Bending Beam: The standout feature that enables bending from both the top and bottom, eliminating the need to re-clamp or rotate the sheet metal.
Quick Clamping System: Features Schechtl’s patented tool-free system, allowing segments to be rearranged or shifted in seconds.
High Precision & Repeatability: Offers precise angles even with delicate geometries, supported by a bending beam stop for uniform recurring bends.
100 mm Segment Height: Provides generous clearance (standard height of 100 mm) for deep-profile boxes and cassettes.
Mobility & Ergonomics: Includes a foot pedal for hands-free clamping, swivel castors for workshop movement, and integrated storage for tools and segments.

Standard configuration:

Dual Bending Beam Function: Enabling complex folds without re-clamping the sheet.
Quick Clamping System: Patented tool-free adjustment for segments on the clamping, lower, and bending beams.
Foot Pedal: For hands-free clamping and operation.
Bending Angle Limitation: A mechanical stop for consistent, recurring bending operations.
Rolling Device: Includes four swivel castors with locking brakes for workshop mobility.
Segment Radius: Standard segments on the clamping beam come with a 1.1 mm radius.
Storage Box: Integrated tray/box for segment storage, which also serves as a workpiece support.

Tools/Options

1000 mm Backgauge: A manually operated, linear depth stop for precise and repeatable sheet positioning.
Universal Backgauge Table UA125: A larger, comprehensive support table specifically for the UK-DB 125 model to assist with complex bending sequences.
Workpiece Support: A dedicated support table on top of the machine’s tool case to handle larger or heavier sheets more ergonomically (adjustable positioning).
Window Sill Inserts: Available in Standard (3x) or Variable (6x) designs. These specialised segments are used to manufacture watertight, high-quality window sills.
Alternative Radius Segments: While 1.1 mm is standard, you can opt for 2.0 mm or 3.0 mm radius segments for the clamping beam to suit different material types (Zinc, alum.) or visual requirements.

Technical Data

FRIBESCO’s reasons:

Why choose the UK-DB folder?

✅ Dual-Beam Efficiency: Bend upwards and downwards in a single cycle without ever flipping the sheet, cutting handling time by up to 50%.
✅ Tool-Free Customisation: Patented quick-clamping on all three beams means you can switch from a simple box to a complex cassette profile in seconds.
✅ Superior Clearance: The 100 mm segment height offers massive free space, making it one of the most versatile manual brakes for deep-drawn boxes.
✅ Material Handling Ease: The UA125 table and workpiece supports turn complex, large-sheet jobs into a manageable one-person operation.
✅ Workshop Mobility: Mounted on heavy-duty swivel castors with a foot-pedal clamp, it’s a self-contained production centre you can roll exactly where it’s

The Schechtl folder gives professional roofers the edge: faster throughout, consistent accuracy, and long-term reliability.
