The GECKO 3-roller motorized calender , with processing capacity 1030 x 2.2 mm , year of construction 2001 , is a robust and reliable machine, perfect for those looking for an excellent opportunity on the used market. Produced with the aim of guaranteeing precision and durability, this calender has been designed to work on sheets with a maximum thickness of 2.2 mm and a width of up to 1030 mm. The fact that it is motorized makes it extremely versatile and suitable for different production contexts, particularly in areas where the bending of thin sheet metal is required.
GECKO calender visually presents itself as a compact but solid machine. Its three rollers, two of which are lower and one upper, work in synergy to ensure uniform and precise bending. The 1030 mm working width capacity makes it ideal for small and medium-sized metalworking workshops, while the 2.2 mm processing thickness is perfect for thin and medium sheet metal, usually used in light carpentry and manufacturing of metal elements.
The year of construction 2001 indicates that the machine has already been on the market for some time, but the fact that it has been used in a non-intensive manner and that it is functioning in good conditions testifies to the attention paid to its maintenance, which makes it prolongs operational life. The machinery is available for viewing and testing, an opportunity that I highly recommend, as it allows you to directly see the condition of the used machine and carry out operational tests.
The three rollers with which the GECKO are made of hardened steel, designed to resist high forces without deforming. The upper roller performs the main bending function, while the two lower rollers support the movement of the material. The movement of the rollers is completely motorized , greatly simplifying the sheet metal bending process and reducing the operator's workload.
The dimensions of the machine, rather compact for the type of processing it offers, allow it to be easily integrated even in small work spaces. dimensions specifications have not been reported, but usually a calender with these capacities has a weight that can vary from 1,500 to 2,000 kg, depending on the construction of the frame.
The operation of the calender is simple: the sheet metal is inserted between the rollers, which, thanks to the motorized rotary movement, bend the material according to the desired angle. The pressure adjustment of the upper roller allows you to obtain precise curvatures, even with materials of different thicknesses.
This machine can be equipped with electronic control devices for greater precision in automated processes, as well as with additional rollers for processing more complex profiles or more rigid materials.
To ensure optimal performance, periodic maintenance is essential. This includes cleaning the rollers to avoid accumulations of material that could compromise their functionality, as well as periodically lubricating the bearings and moving parts. It is also recommended to check the electrical and motorized systems at least once a year.
Being a machine built in 2001 GECKO calender complies with current CE regulations. Otherwise, it would be necessary to equip it with safety devices , such as roller guards and emergency buttons, to make it safe according to the laws in force regarding machine safety.
Motorized calenders like this one are commonly used in:
Buying a GECKO offers numerous advantages. The first is certainly the economic savings compared to purchasing a new car. Furthermore, the fact that it has been used non-intensively means that it still retains many of its original features, offering excellent value for money. Finally, the possibility of viewing and testing the machinery before purchasing allows you to make a concrete assessment of its conditions, ensuring a safe investment.
In conclusion, the GECKO 1030 x 2.2 mm motorized calender is an excellent opportunity for those looking for a high-performance machine, suitable for precision machining and ready for use.
