DESCRIPTION

Support the bend under an adjustable plate

This JOYABEST bender holds the forming operation around an adjustable plate. The seller describes a reversible plate, 360° adjustment and four usable sides, allowing the working edge to be chosen for the etched part. An elongated section is specifically described for longer etched bends.

A built-in spring lifts the platen when the knob is turned counterclockwise, according to the supplied feature text. The alloy body is not assigned a specific grade. The seller names Z- and U-shaped forming and transforming flat etched parts into three-dimensional model details; it supplies no numeric maximum thickness or bend-length specification.

Choose this support arrangement when a clamping plate is more useful than holding the part in pliers. Tamiya 74067 offers the hand-held forming alternative. Hotop’s separate edge/tab and cylinder/cone tools add shaped forming surfaces instead, so they may answer a different part of the assembly task rather than replace this fixture.

What to check before choosing

Check the receiving envelope

Confirm the plate edge and material thickness required for the part; 360° adjustment does not establish every bend radius.

Your questions about this product

What is the elongated plate section for?

The seller specifically describes it for longer etched bending work. No maximum numerical bend length is supplied.

How is the platen opened?

The feature text says turning the knob counterclockwise allows the built-in spring to lift it.

Would the cylinder/cone tool kit replace this?

Hotop’s kit supplies separate shaped forms and tab/edge tools. This product instead provides a plate-supported fixture for holding and forming an etched part.
