The Cidan Folder produces consistent, accurate folds while allowing the majority of the material to stay in the flat state. This has greatly reduced the risk of damage to the product and as a result, has reduced the rate of rejects and reworks to virtually zero. The clamping of the material at the fold line allows small bends to be folded in thicker materials. Some of our bends that could not be produced using conventional press brake tooling without material distortion can now be folded accurately and consistently, eliminating the need for auxiliary processing. Installation and training was conducted by Cidan and was of a high caliber.

I bought quite a bit of equipment for the last ship I worked at through Empire, and it was always the best price and quality equipment. Sean Mashinter is excellent to deal with, very friendly, helpful, and understanding.

I wanted to say thanks for the delivery and set up of the Cidan Folder. I would like to mention that it was a pleasure to have Dave here to do the set up and training. He did a great job and he made sure we were comfortable with the operation of the machine before he left, which I greatly appreciate. In a time when we here more complaints then credit, I thought I would send this e-mail to let you know how satisfied we were with the service we got. Thanks, and we look forward to dealing with you again in the future.

We own many pieces of typical metal fabrication equipment but the E2590 press brake was our first DURMA purchase. We have been very happy with its quality and performance and will look to Empire Machinery for our future equipment purchases.

I am very impressed with our new EzeStep Flashing Bender. I estimate we were making 200 pieces of flashing per hour on our hand brake, and we are now making 800 pieces per hour with the EzeStep. It’s very well made and paid for itself within the first month!
