CIDAN FORMA | Metal Folding Machine

The CIDAN FORMA is a flexible precision folding solution designed for accurate sheet metal processing in professional fabrication environments. Engineered for architectural, façade, cladding, and roofing applications across Australia and New Zealand, it combines Swedish engineering with advanced flexibility to handle a wide range of materials and profiles with consistent accuracy.

Flexible Construction for Diverse Applications
With its rigid machine frame and precision folding beam, the FORMA ensures uniform folding angles and stable pressure across working lengths suited to medium and large fabrication tasks. This precision-driven design supports efficient handling of sheet metal, reduces manual rework, and improves overall production efficiency for varied workshop requirements.

Versatility Through Design
The machine is designed with a generous opening height and flexible tooling options, allowing operators to handle deeper profiles and complex components without unnecessary setup changes. Supported by the ProLink CNC control system with optional 3D import, the FORMA maintains consistent pressure and parallel movement during each fold, ensuring high-quality results from the first part.

Heritage and Local Support
Manufactured in Götene, Sweden and supported by the CIDAN Machinery Group’s 118-year engineering heritage, the FORMA delivers long-term reliability and precision. Backed locally by Total Rollforming, it provides fabricators across ANZ with a dependable solution for flexible, high-quality sheet metal fabrication.
