FABTECH 2026: Innovation Without Limits
The manufacturing industry is being challenged from every direction. Skilled labor remains difficult to find. Lead times continue to shrink.
Customers expect higher quality, faster delivery, and greater flexibility than ever before.
At FABTECH 2026, MetalForming will demonstrate how fabricators are overcoming these challenges through folding technology and automation.
Innovation Without Limits reflects the opportunities available when manufacturers move beyond the limitations of conventional forming methods.
Whether producing industrial components or architectural metal products, today’s most successful fabricators are finding new ways to increase output,
reduce labor requirements, improve quality, and respond faster to customer demands.
At Booth C3037, visitors will see a comprehensive range of folding solutions designed to address the challenges facing modern fabrication.
Industrial Manufacturing Solutions
For industrial fabricators, labor shortages, material handling, and production bottlenecks continue to limit growth. MetalForming will showcase technologies
that help manufacturers produce more with fewer operators while improving consistency and throughput.
Featured equipment includes:
- Schreder EVO DuoBend with Automatic Tool Change – Demonstrating unmatched flexibility for complex parts, reduced setup times, and rapid changeovers in high-mix production environments.
- Schreder PowerBend Industrial (PBI) – Built for demanding industrial applications requiring high accuracy, repeatability, and efficient processing of large components.
- Schreder PowerBend Professional (PBP) – Combining versatility and productivity for manufacturers seeking maximum efficiency across a wide range of part types.
Together, these systems showcase the Factors4Folding™ in action, reducing labor requirements, minimizing part handling, improving accuracy, and enhancing downstream operations.
Architectural Manufacturing Solutions
Architectural fabricators face a different challenge: producing increasingly complex profiles while maintaining short lead times and exceptional quality.
Visitors will experience technologies designed specifically for architectural metal fabrication, including:
- Schroeder PowerBend Multi (PBM) – Delivering exceptional flexibility for complex profile production with rapid setup and changeover capabilities.
- Schroeder PowerBend Architectural (PBA) – Engineered for high-speed production of architectural trim, panels, and custom profiles.
- Schroeder MHSU Shear – Providing accurate, efficient material blanking to support streamlined production workflows.
These solutions enable fabricators to produce more profile variations, respond faster to customer requirements, and increase throughput without increasing labor.
The Factors4Folding™
Throughout the booth, visitors will see firsthand how folding technology addresses the four challenges facing virtually every fabricator today:
Labor – Produce more with fewer operators.
Handling – Reduce lifting, flipping, and repositioning of parts.
Accuracy – Improve consistency and repeatability while reducing rework.
Downstream Operations – Deliver better-fitting parts that move more efficiently through production.
Experience Innovation Without Limits
Whether your focus is industrial fabrication, architectural metalwork, or both, FABTECH 2026 is an opportunity to see how modern folding technology
is helping manufacturers increase productivity, expand capabilities, and remain competitive in a rapidly changing market.
