I have access to a 2400mm pan brake exactly the same as the one in the link.
Just a moment...

I want to fold some alloy sheeting but I am wondering if this is possible to fold with that pan brake or will I need to use a press??

I dont want to buy the material and drive half a day to only find out it couldnt be done on a folder like that one. Im trying to get my head around it but I am not sure if there are clearances to do reverse folds like that. The people that have the folder have no idea either as they have never actually used it yet...its brand new!!

Thanks for any advice from the sheet metal guys.
