RAS Tutorial: Quick setups

A quick tool setup is a very decisive factor in the question of whether a metal folding machine operates economically. Often, tool changes are limited to the tool segments found along the working length of the machine. For machinery frequently used for craftsmanship work, RAS tooling uses an eccentric quick-release system. For industrial applications, an automatic clamping system is used. When it comes to small lot sizes or tall and heavy tooling, an automatic tool changer should be considered. With such quick setups, folding technology is ideal for short runs even with a lot size quantity as small as 1.
