Featured Machine: PRO60-168
Bed size: 5×14′, expanded from a 5×10′ bed original set up.
Did you know you can expand your machine? If you want to start with a 4’x2′ or a 4’x4′ bed and then expand later on to a 4’x8′ or a 4’x10′ or 4’xInfinity’ you can! Your machine can grow with you as your business grows. Or if you’d like to add on a rotary attachment but don’t want to lose any crucial bed space for your 4×8′ standard sheet sizes you can add an extension on to your machine for rotary and other attachments.
There are a variety of options on how to mount your rotary onto your machine. Featured in this video the rotary is recessed mounted on the end of the machine. Notice that the last crossbar is inset to the edge of the rotary work area so that the technician can stand right up next to it to load the material, rather than to lean across a crossbar.
