Still confirmed at quotation stage: tooling profile, actual throat measurement, material grade, guarding, operator training, warranty and any Carter branding or finish on the supplied machine.

Choose the right model

Send the profile, not just the thickness.

Profile

Send a drawing or photograph of the bead, wiring channel or stiffening profile you need to form.

Material

Tell us grade, thickness, coating and whether the material is mild steel, stainless or aluminium.

Reach and volume

Confirm the required throat, part size, frequency of use and whether powered or rotary swaging is more suitable.

Your machine package

All new machines include a 24-month parts-and-labour warranty. Ask about part exchange, finance, delivery, offloading and positioning when requesting your quotation.

Finance is subject to approval. Delivery, handling and positioning are quoted for your machine and site.
