Featured Product
The SBS124-16 Powered Folder
The Tennsmith SBS Series mechanical folding system utilizes a low maintenance design, coupled with an array of standard features for an attractive combination of high value and solid performance.
Center Clamping Drive System
For maximum hemming capacity, a strong feature of the Tennsmith SBS Series is the center drive of the clamping system. The placement of the motor in the center of the machine maximizes power while reducing torque loss through the drive shaft. The twin support legs of the SBS provide positive resistance to the floor enhancing machine rigidity.
Learn MoreTwin-Motor Folding Beam Drive System
The SBS Series incorporates a twin motor (Left and Right) direct drive system for the folding beam. This allows the system to be fast and extremely accurate. The twin motor design is capable of bending speeds up to 80 degrees per second. This design also eliminates torque build up commonly found on competitor’s chain drive folders.
