6. Usage Tips

• Use high-quality, flat-edge steel strips to ensure smooth and accurate forming.

• Clean and oil the rollers regularly to prevent corrosion and preserve shape precision.

• For operations with frequent size changes, consider servo width adjustment and auto tool change systems.

• Conduct routine checks on hydraulic oil, electrical connections, and sensor feedback to avoid unplanned downtime.
