The TENNSMITH/SWI Long Folder Series (LFS), gives you added flexibility with the ability to handle lengths as great as 40’. Best of all, it includes technology so advanced and easy-to-use that a novice worker could be accurately creating complex shapes in minutes.
Coupled with a highly robust SLITTER (click here for photo) the TENNSMITH/SWI Long Folder means you can quickly produce pieces of long folded metal up to 14 gauge. Capable of as many as 100 folds per program, the TENNSMITH/SWI Long Folder is ideal for builders, metal part fabricators, roofing companies and others who create complex profiles and need the flexibility and throughput of a long folding system.
The TENNSMITH/SWI Long Folder employs a highly reliable 10 h.p. hydraulic motor system for the folding beam. Because of this, it delivers the speed and precision you need, making the system fast and accurate. For example, the 90-degree fold speed is just 5 seconds (adjustable to customer needs).
Built for your longest metal folding needs, TENNSMITH/SWI Long Folders are also backed by one of the longest, strongest warranties in the metal folding industry . They are backed by our highly responsive service network and durably built to serve you for many years to come. Simplified electronic circuitry and easily accessible components further simplify maintenance.
