The Bosch Profilform 500 is a used hydraulic bending and forming machine — sometimes referred to as a folding machine or press brake — designed for the precise bending and forming of sheet metal in workshop and production environments. Bosch is a globally recognised engineering and technology company with a broad industrial portfolio, and this machine reflects the solid, reliable construction associated with the brand.
The machine is hydraulically driven, giving it consistent pressing force and smooth operation across a range of materials. Its sheet metal capacity varies by material: it can handle aluminium up to 4 mm thick, iron sheet up to 2 mm, and chrome steel (stainless steel) up to 1.5 mm. These capacities make it a versatile tool for fabricators working across multiple metals in a single workshop setting. Optimal workpiece positioning is recommended at the centre of the machine for best results, and the unit is intended strictly for sheet metal cutting and bending rather than wire or other materials.
The machine features a user-friendly control panel equipped with safety features, and its construction is described as solid and built for long-lasting use. It originated in Switzerland and is currently located in Germany.
This is a used machine showing visible signs of wear but confirmed as fully functional. By purchasing a reused machine rather than procuring a new one, it is estimated that approximately 2,500 kg of CO₂ emissions are avoided — roughly equivalent to the annual emissions of a small car.
