At the EuroBLECH exhibition in Hanover last month, Cidan Machinery Group presented two new solutions for sheet metal production. Forstner CoilCell saves space and simplifies coil handling, while Thalmann D-Power delivers high folding performance with low energy consumption and more support for handling large parts.

The starting point was the work customers do every day: storing heavy coils, changing materials and folding long profiles. Their requests helped shape both developments.

Forstner CoilCell builds on Cidan Machinery’s experience with CoilFarm, bringing compact, modular coil storage to sheet metal workshops. Its double-deck design stores coil vertically, while an integrated lift reduces the need to move them with forklifts or other equipment. Easier handling and faster material changes help keep production moving.

Customers can start with the capacity they need today and expand as production grows. CoilCell is designed for one-person operation, with intuitive controls and configurations ranging from manual operation to a fully automated set up. At EuroBLECH, CoilCell was shown with six coil positions together with NuSlit.

Thalmann D-Power uses an energy-efficient servo drive that adjusts power demand to the movements of the machine axes. This capability keeps energy consumption low while maintaining folding performance and speed.

Increased bending clearance gives operators more room for larger parts and profiles with higher slopes. The extending handling table reaches 900 mm to support large and long sheets. With the right configuration, several sheets can be folded together, and very long parts can be handled by one operator.

Both solutions were developed through close co-operation between our sales and engineering teams, using customers’ everyday production needs to guide the design.
