Frequently Asked Questions
How much bench space do I need for the SR2420M?
You'll need a sturdy workbench with at least 1118mm length and 381mm depth to accommodate the machine. Make sure your bench can support 100kg and is secured to the floor for stability during operation. Leave some extra space around the machine for material handling.
Can this machine handle materials other than mild steel?
Yes! While it's rated for 1mm mild steel at full width, you can work with aluminum, copper, brass, and stainless steel. For harder materials like stainless steel, you may need to reduce the material thickness to maintain quality results and protect the machine.
Is this machine suitable for beginners or firsttime slip roll users?
Absolutely. The manual operation gives you complete control and feedback, making it easier to learn proper forming techniques. The 1:1 gear ratio means there's no speed multiplication to manage, and you can feel exactly what's happening with the material. Just start with scrap pieces to get comfortable with the process.
Do I need electrical power to operate this slip roll?
No electrical connection required. This is a purely manual machine, which gives you flexibility in shop placement and eliminates concerns about power requirements or electrical safety in your workspace.
What's the difference between the minimum forming diameter and the roll diameter?
The upper roll diameter (50.8mm) is the size of the roll itself. The minimum forming diameter (76.2mm or 3 inches) is the tightest curve you can create with the machine. You cannot form curves smaller than 76.2mm diameter without damaging the equipment or material.
How do I maintain the SR2420M for longterm use?
Keep the rolls clean and lightly oiled to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation. Periodically check roll alignment and clean out the wire grooves. Avoid overloading the machine beyond its rated capacity, as this can cause premature wear or misalignment. With basic care, this machine will serve your shop for many years.
