STAR edging foil avoids scratches / abrasions on the sheet metal to be edged and thus scrappage and expensive reworking. Production is faster, expensive tools last longer and additional protective foils can be avoided
Questions and answers about Bending Film
General
[vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″ no_fill=”true”]Yes, the bending film is suitable for all metals, non-ferrous metals and aluminum.

Yes, the bending foil is suitable for all metals, non-ferrous metals and aluminum.
Yes, in principle this is possible, but the “ripples” are sometimes very sharp and you need to work carefully here, although our bending foil is very tear-resistant.
Yes, definitely. The bending foil prevents contact between the tool and the component and protects both.
Bending Film
[vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″]Our STAR quality bending foil avoids scratches, abrasions and therefore scrappage or expensive reworking.
STAR quality bending film is much more resistant to tearing, so you can edge many times in the same place and you save a lot of money compared to PVC film.
Our STAR quality bending foil is smooth and does not leave any patterns on the part to be edged for a very long time of usage, as the fabric does to some extent.
Assembly instructions
[vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″]Yes, this is absolutely possible.
The bending foil is actually not designed for this, but rather for bending benches. But we can certainly look for a solution together.
Yes, our rolls have a 76 mm (3 inch) cardboard core, so they can also be used on unwinders from other manufacturers such as Trumpf.

You unroll a piece and place it on the tool. Then you fix it with magnets. When calculating the press brake settings, you take into account the thickness of the foil in the thickness of the material. You put the sheet, bend it and have a bend on the outside without marking or scratching.
Our STAR quality bending foil allows multiple bending on the same foil spot. It is possible to make 30-50 bends on the same spot.
Troubleshooting - operating instructions
[vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” active_section=”0″]You use our STAR quality bending film. By placing it on the tool on the side you want to protect, you avoid scratches, abrasions and expensive reworking.
One of the main reasons for this mistake is not taking into account the thickness of the bending film when equipping the machine. You must take into account the bending film thickness with the material thickness, otherwise the force can be too strong on the film, which even the best bending film can not withstand.
You must take into account the bending foil thickness with the material thickness, otherwise the force can be too strong on the film, which even the best bending foil can not withstand.
Follow our recommendation for the correct bending foil thickness and take this film thickness into account when programming the machine (adding it to the sheet thickness), otherwise too much force will be applied to the film, which even the best bending foil cannot withstand.
Delivery program
[vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″]We can give the following recommendation
- up to 1 mm sheet thickness use 0.4 mm STAR quality bending foil
- between 1-2 mm sheet thickness use 0,5/0,6 mm STAR quality bending foil
- between 2-3 mm sheet thickness use 0,8 mm STAR quality bending foil
- Above this we have 1 & 2 mm STAR quality bending foil
We can give the following recommendation
- up to 2 mm sheet thickness use 0,4 mm STAR quality bending foil
- between 2-4 mm sheet thickness use 0,5/0,6 mm STAR quality bending foil
- between 4-6 mm sheet thickness use 0,8 mm STAR quality bending foil
- Above this we have 1 & 2 mm STAR quality bending foil

The minimum purchase quantity is 1 roll of bending foil.
Yes with pleasure, but we would like to give you a quotation first. If the price is ok, we will be glad to send you a free sample of bending foil.
Unfortunately not at the moment! However, you can use the Trumpf dispenser for our bending foils, among others.
The minimum purchase is 1 roll for each thickness of bending foil.
