Bender Rebuilding

We offer a number of levels of rebuilding / upgrading / refurbishing your NC or CNC bender. Included is a full 01 year warranty on parts and labor for the work that is done or parts replaced. Longer factory warrantys from the component supplier may also apply.

Check for stock machines; we may have a "core" already in stock. We rebuild our machine and send you a full refurbished and warranted bender. Then, we take your old machine in trade so that you keep in full production while our "core" is being rebuilt.
