Changing The Shape Of Metal
Since 1910, Roper Whitney has been producing high-quality tools and sheet metal fabrication equipment that change the shape of sheet metal, literally, from a simple punch to folding shapes with complex geometries. Over the decades, Roper Whitney has become a household name in sheet metal shops, most notably with our American-made AutoBrake® sheet metal folders as well as brands like PEXTO® and Connecticut®.
With the release of powered long folders, Roper Whitney has one of the most comprehensive product lineups for bending, folding, forming, notching, punching and shearing – all designed to streamline the sheet metal fabrication process.
Our sheet metal brakes are powered by our SYNERGY control system that manages all machine motions with an intuitive interface and real-time bending sequences. SYNERGY also provides easy management of projects and product drawings.
