Manual bending machine HRT 65

for plastic profilescompactmobile

Overview
The Shannon HRT 65 is a benchtop thermoplastic bending machine for workshops and manufacturers working with sheet formats up to 650 mm. Its modular construction allows expansion from 1 to 4 lower heating lines without replacing the base unit. Height-adjustable heating wires and a digital control for temperature and working height enable fast, repeatable set-ups across materials and thicknesses. Standard equipment includes a double parallel fence with mm/inch markings for precise positioning. Compact footprint and scalable performance suit small production runs, prototyping and craft applications.

Applications

• Signage and lettering: clean bends in acrylic and PVC for custom signs
• Displays and POS: countertop displays and small exhibition elements
• PLV and signage parts: rapid adaptation to varying thicknesses and geometries
• Prototyping and models: repeatable adjustments for iterative design validation
• Short-run industrial plastic components: consistent bends in PS and PC
• Acrylic furniture and decorative pieces: small-format panels with professional finish

Materials

• Acrylic (PMMA): preserves optical quality with digital temperature control
• Polycarbonate (PC): suitable for medium thicknesses, high impact resistance
• PVC: versatile for signage and functional elements
• Polystyrene (PS): lightweight material benefiting from fine temperature regulation

Features

• Digital temperature and working-height control for precise, repeatable bends
• Height-adjustable heating wires to work with very thin sheets
• Double parallel stop and side stop as standard for accurate positioning
• Compact, modular design expandable from 1 to 4 lower heating lines
• Optional special bending profile for delicate materials to avoid wire marks
• Quick, repeatable setup adapted to each material and thickness
