Side stop/ squaring arm

A squaring arm left and/ or right at the backgauge table gives the advantage of fast and rigid positioning of the sheet to match up with the tool setup.
It can also support narrow sheets that only engages one backgauge finger.

Tool cart

Safely store the divided tooling for your CIDAN folder. The tool cart is recommended to decrease the risk of damaging tools and misplacing tools during tool changing. It is possible to store divided rails on the cart and there is room for hand tools for the operators and machine instruction manual. The cart is equipped with lockable wheels and pull handles. Especially recommended if the machine is equipped with the Multifold tooling system.

When operating the machine from the folding beam side, the floor laser scanner protects the operator from the folding beam movement.

When operating the machine from the backgauge side, the laser scanner protects the folding area.

Extended Floor laser scanner area when folding.

Floor area is set to 1.2 meter from the folding line.
