We're pleased to introduce the ECKOLD MultiFormer MF 500. Three forming processes of sheet metal can be realized with the MultiFormer MF 500: Planishing, Wheeling and Shrinking. The concept is clever and sophisticated: The different modules fit on the same C-frame and transform it into a Planishing hammer, English Wheel or a Shrinker, according to your requirements.
