A line bender enables the user to form a bend in a sheet of plastic up to 500 mm wide using a heating element. Once the plastic is hot, it can be moulded at any angle and placed in the separate cooling pad until it is cold.
Please be aware that the heating line gets really hot, so don`t put your hands in that area. Always ask the fablab team before using the machine and we will give you all necessary information about working safety.
