Hi,
Can anyone tell me what a Diacro 16-24 Press Brake (hand operated)
weighs in at? Thanks

I seriously doubt that it's "a similar weight" to their finger break!!!
The thing is a completely different animal. Here's a link to their manual.

Wow! A *lot* more weight. I had a mental image of a hydraulic
H-frame press used as a press brake -- or perhaps one with leverage
similar to that on the 24" finger brake but still a H-frame
construction.

Thie is a *lot* of metal. I presume that the name implies that
you can get ones capable of bending a 16" length, or a 24" length, and
based on the tables of force needed for various thicknesses, it may be
*much* more capable.

It's surprising that they don't have the machines specs in the manual.
Whoever posted it must have left that out...

I am indeed surprised -- there is a lot left out. Looks like it
is from 2002 -- so fairly recent.

Enjoy,
DoN.
