Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an MSM sheet metal beading machine and a DR/EBM woodworking beading machine?
MSM beading machines (250, 300, 400, 500 C) are for beading sheet metal: they create a folded edge on the cut edges of sheet metal to eliminate sharp edges and stiffen the panel. DR/EBM/PEB beading machines are for wood: they apply PVC, ABS, or wood edges to chipboard and MDF panels. Completely different operation — not interchangeable.
What sheet metal thicknesses does the MSM series work with?
Bernardo MSM beading machines typically work with steel sheet metal up to 1.0–1.5 mm, aluminum up to 2.0 mm. Check the specific limits in the model's technical table. Thicker sheet metal requires hydraulic beading machines or press brakes.
Is the MSM C beading machine manual or motorized?
The suffix C indicates a version with motorized feed — the sheet metal is automatically pulled through the beading rollers at an adjustable speed. Versions SM 180 S, SM 200, SM 470 are manual: the operator guides the sheet through the rollers by hand.
