What are the main benefits of using the CFCM-30ES Corner Forming Machine?

The CFCM-30ES eliminates the need for welding, grinding, and polishing at enclosure corners, reducing labor costs and production time significantly. Benefits include consistent, repeatable corner quality controlled by Delta PLC, faster cycle times compared to welding-based processes, reduced material waste, and a superior surface finish on the final product. The machine also reduces operator skill requirements, as the automated forming process removes the variability associated with manual welding.

What sheet metal thicknesses and materials can the CFCM-30ES handle?

The CFCM-30ES supports a general thickness range of 0.5 to 2 mm. For oiled ST12 sheet, the allowable range is 0.8 to 2 mm. For black ST37 sheet, the range is 1.5 to 2 mm. For stainless steel, the allowable range is 0.8 to 2 mm. The machine settings are adjusted manually to match the material and thickness being processed.

What forming radius range does this machine support?

The CFCM-30ES supports a forming radius range of 6 to 30 mm, covering the full range of corner profiles used in standard electrical panel enclosures and industrial cabinets. The minimum workpiece size the machine can process is 210×210 mm.

What control system does the CFCM-30ES use?

The CFCM-30ES is controlled by a Delta PLC with a 7-inch HMI touchscreen. This allows operators to program, save, and recall forming parameters for different enclosure types quickly, minimizing setup time between production runs. The machine uses Autonics sensors for position feedback, Tork Hydraulics and Duplomatic valves for hydraulic control, and Kastas sealing components — all well-proven industrial brands that ensure reliable long-term operation.

Brand: PAYAPRESS
SKU: CFCM-30ES
Price: 38000 EUR
Availability: PreOrder
Rating: 4.8 (5 reviews)

From flat sheet to finished corner, with no welding and no grinding. The CFCM-30 corner forming machine cold-forms seamless corners in steel and stainless sheet from 0.5 to 2 mm, with forming radii from 6 to 30 mm and interchangeable molds. A Delta PLC with a 7″ HMI runs the cycle, and two models, manual (EH) and automatic (ES), fit different production volumes.

Corner Forming Machine: Seamless Corners, No Welding

Every sheet metal corner is either welded and ground, or formed. A cold-forming machine moves it into the second category — one operation, no weld seam, and nothing to grind or polish afterward. The next few minutes cover what the machine is, how it works, which sheet metals it handles, who relies on it, and what drives its price.

What Is a Sheet Metal Corner Forming Machine?

A sheet metal corner forming machine shapes the corners of a flat sheet at room temperature, so the finished part has seamless corners instead of welded joints. The PAYAPRESS CFCM-30 is built for the materials common in enclosure and cabinet manufacturing: steel and stainless steel from 0.5 to 2 mm, with forming radii from 6 to 30 mm.

How a Cold Former Makes Weld-Free Corners

The CFCM-30 is a cold former: the sheet is formed by hydraulics at up to 200 bar from a 4 kW motor, with no heat, welding, grinding or polishing involved. Interchangeable Z-shape, edge and twist molds define the corner and can be customized by radius and size. A PLC with a 7″ HMI controls the cycle, and the machine creates a precise 2 to 3 mm bend at the sheet corners. The result is a clean, strong, weld-free joint, repeated consistently from part to part.

Manual or Automatic Corner Forming Machine: CFCM-30EH vs CFCM-30ES

The two models differ in how they adjust to sheet thickness. On the manual CFCM-30EH, the operator sets the machine for each thickness, which keeps the price lower. The automatic CFCM-30ES adjusts its settings by itself, giving faster changeovers and less operator input. Both run a PLC with a 7″ HMI, form 0.5–2 mm sheet and share the same 1,200 kg industrial frame, so the choice comes down to how often your thickness changes.

Which Sheet Metals Can a Metal Corner Forming Machine Process?

The CFCM-30 supports oiled ST12 steel from 0.8 to 2 mm, black ST37 steel from 1.5 to 2 mm, and stainless steel from 0.8 to 2 mm. The smallest piece it forms is 210 × 210 mm. With interchangeable molds covering radii from 6 to 30 mm, one machine adapts to different enclosure sizes and corner designs while keeping results consistent and repeatable.

Industries That Rely on the CFCM-30

Manufacturers of electrical control panel doors are the largest customer segment. The machine also serves makers of retail display stands, shelving, data-center racks, cabinets, elevator cabins, medical equipment and instrumentation enclosures, explosion-proof panels for the petrochemical and oil and gas industries, and HVAC ducts. In every case the value is the same: clean, weld-free corners without a finishing step.

Corner Forming Machine Price

Corner forming machine price depends on the model (EH or ES), the mold set, and the radii and corner shapes you need, so compare supplier quotations on equal specifications, not headline figures. Buying directly from the manufacturer, rather than through a trading company, usually secures factory pricing, faster spare-part supply and engineering support from the people who built the machine.

Frequently Asked Question

Straight answers on the corner forming machine

What is a corner forming machine used for?

It cold-forms the corners of sheet metal parts at room temperature, giving seamless corners instead of welded ones. Typical parts are electrical panel doors, cabinets, racks, shelving, elevator cabins and HVAC ducts.

Do I still need to weld, grind or polish the corners?

No. The corner is formed rather than welded, so there is no weld seam to grind or polish. The only finishing step is trimming the small standing flash at the shear station after forming.

What do I need to do before the sheet reaches the CFCM-30?

Pre-bend the two adjacent sides to 90° on a press brake. The machine then forms the open corner between them, so accurate pre-bending gives a cleaner finished corner.

How is a corner formed on the machine?

Select the job on the HMI, seat the pre-bent corner on the lower die and pull both flanges tight. Press the foot pedal. The upper roller die descends and rolls the flange around the radius in one stroke.

What sheet metals and thicknesses can it handle?

Steel and stainless steel from 0.5 to 2 mm. By material: oiled ST12 steel 0.8–2 mm, black ST37 steel 1.5–2 mm, and stainless steel 0.8–2 mm.

What corner radii and part sizes does it support?

Forming radii from 6 to 30 mm, set with interchangeable molds. The smallest piece it forms is 210 × 210 mm. Send your drawing if a part is close to that limit.
