The inspiration for our new state of the artfolding machine.

Introducing SpectraFoldTM with exclusive on-screen design.

The new Schechtl SpectraFoldTM lets you actually see your parts

on the computer screen in “real time” as you create and produce

them. The SpectraFoldTM is the ultimate definition of “what you see

is what you get.” And you can store up to 5000 graphic programs at

one time.

Schechtl’s innovative technology is one reason why they have been

the leader in architectural sheet metal machines in Europe for over

85 years. And now, Schechtl’s expertise is available in the U.S. The

SpectraFoldTM is a marvel in innovation and efficiency. It’s faster,

easier to use, just as accurate, yet costs significantly less than the

competition and with its exclusive on-screen design system –

“What you see is what you get!”

WithPIP, any change in the programsequence is viewed in relation to themachine

elements, providing collision checking of the part with themachine.

Programming can also be done using Schechtl’s historical methods of easy and

classic mode for the less advanced user. A program created with any of the three

methods is stored automatically and is accessible in all-three formats.

The new iFold profile explorer function allows you to store and manage part

programs in a virtually endless number of ways: part type (e.g., gutter, rake) part

number, part name, project or job number, customer name, etc. And we’ve built a

massive core library of industry standard parts which can instantly be added to

any folder.

The ComputerWhat makes a technological advance of this magnitude possible is next genera-

tion software based on theMicrosoft.Net 3.5 framework – today’s most advanced

programmingmethodwhich shatters the concept of the stand alonemachine. The

key is that the system allows total compatibility and connectivity to awide range

of other computers and software.

Whywould a roofing or sheetmetal contractor care about this? Because,

for the first time ever, MetalForming has developed a new communica-

tions method in collaboration with Georgia Tech University which

essentially stations a MetalForming service man in your shop. The new iFold can

connect directly to us via the web, land lines, WIFI, Bluetooth or 3G. The system

usesMTConnect™ to constantly sendus data on thehealth of yourmachine, sowe

can report upcoming problems to you before they appear.

Starting today, metalfolding technology has taken a quantum leapforward in every aspect:

ProgrammingThe user interface is state-of-the-art “swipe” technology, allowing instant control

of graphics and content on screen. It’s all part of our exclusive new “Drag and

Draw” programming technology.

The operator designs a part by

simply touching and dragging their

finger on the 22" tempered glass

touch screen. They literally draw a

“live” part with the actual dimen-

sions and angles to real scale with

no other programming or adjust-

ments. Should a change be desired

to a segment length, angle, or radius;

clearly marked “HOT” buttons are

utilized. A sequence button is used to determine the actual bending sequence of

the part in real-time with the picture-in-picture (PIP) feature.

Introducing the Schechtl iFold™ Control.The biggest folding technologyadvance of the millennium.

The fastest, most accurate, easy-to-use interface ever,the iFold is the new gold standard for hi-tech folding.

And with MetalForming’s new OnLink Service System we can

communicate to you right from the control screen with live

streaming voice and video.We can actually see your problemand

help you fix it over the internet.We’ve evendeveloped anewplug-

in system for key electrical components so you can quickly and

reliably replace them with us looking

over your shoulder–without a plane

ticket in hand.

In addition to communicatingwith our

service department, the control can

network to your office computers or

even connect two or more Schechtl

machines together, either on location

or remotely. This feature will become

even more valuable to you as we add

features in the near future, like con-

nection to estimation and drawing files (CIRM, CAD, BIM) bar coding systems,

accounting systems andmany other applications.

To make sure that the system is completely reliable we are using an “armored”

tempered glass shatter and scratch resistant touch screen. In addition, all of the

drives use solid state storage (nomoving parts or spinning drives), and have built

in redundancy. And in the unlikely event something does go wrong you can run

the entire systemwith your laptop.

Last but not least, throughour groundbreakingnew technology andhardware part

replacement costs are cut bymore than 50%.
