The VS-2400B is an automatic plastic bending machine with a 2400 mm working length, the largest in the range, for shops that need a plastic bending machine for very long parts. It hot-bends acrylic, plastic, PC, PVC and PP at angles between 30° and 180°.
With a 2400 mm work table, infrared heating and automatic or manual control, this plastic bending machine covers the largest panels and edging, in thicknesses from 0.8 to 20 mm.
Key Advantages, VS-2400B
• Precise bending at any angle, a MECVORA plastic bending machine forms angles from 30° to 180° on one machine, with straight, repeatable bend lines for identical parts batch after batch.
• Infrared heating, the infrared radiation system heats evenly and lasts longer than classic filament elements, cutting waiting times between bends.
• Adjustable by thickness, the softening gap adjusts to the sheet thickness, and temperature and voltage are set per material, for clean results from 0.8 to 20 mm.
• Multiple materials, the same machine bends acrylic, PVC, PC, PP and other thermoplastics, covering most signage and décor projects from a single tool.
• Safe operation, water circulation protects the components and an overheating alarm stops the process when the temperature is exceeded, protecting both operator and machine.
• Automatic and manual, automatic mode raises series productivity, while manual mode gives fine control for one-off parts or prototypes, both driven from the CNC panel.
• 2400 mm working length, the largest in the range, for very long panels, edging and displays from a single bend (116″ × 20″ footprint).
• Large format, no segmenting, makes parts that the 1200 and 1800 mm models would force into segments, saving assembly time.
• Groove only above 6 mm, sheets of 0.8–6 mm bend with no groove; between 6 and 20 mm a groove is cut along the bend line.

Technology and Process
Hot bending of acrylic relies on localised heating of a line on the sheet: the material softens exactly where it must bend, then it is formed to the desired angle, between 30° and 180°. A MECVORA plastic bending machine controls the temperature and the width of the heated zone precisely, so the bend line is clean, with no scorching or bubbles.
For thin sheets, from 0.8 to 6 mm, no groove is needed; from 6 mm up to 20 mm a groove is cut along the bend line. The infrared heating system and the per-material settings give repeatability from one part to the next, essential in series production for signage and décor.
Applications and Industries, Plastic bender
In signage, the VS-2400B produces large panels and light box sides, plastic letters and faces, with long, precise bends.
In interiors and décor, the machine makes long edging and shelves, displays, presentation stands and large-format boxes, from a varied range of thermoplastics.
In production and industry, the same tool bends large enclosures and guards, protection panels and storage boxes, for lines where part size matters.
The machine meets the requirements applicable to industrial equipment placed on the EU market, in line with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. See also our range of acrylic bending machines for other configurations.
Compatible Materials
The VS-2400B bends a wide range of thermoplastic materials, in thicknesses from 0.8 to 20 mm:
| Material | Details / notes |
|---|---|
| Acrylic (PMMA) | 0.8–20 mm |
| PVC | 0.8–20 mm |
| Polycarbonate (PC) | 0.8–20 mm |
| Polypropylene (PP) | 0.8–20 mm |
| PE / PS / ABS | depending on thickness |
How It Works
The workflow on a MECVORA plastic bending machine is simple and repeatable, from sheet to finished part:
1. Place the sheet on the work table and align the bend line with the heating zone.
2. Select the heating temperature and time according to acrylic, plastic, PC and PVC and the sheet thickness.
3. The infrared element locally heats the bend line until the material softens evenly.
4. The sheet is bent to the programmed angle, between 30° and 180°, automatically or manually from the CNC panel.
5. The part cools and sets its shape, ready for assembly into light boxes, letters, displays or other products.
Safety and Reliability in Use
In a shop working in shifts, safety and reliability matter as much as precision. The water-circulation cooling protects the electronics, and the overheating alarm stops the process when the set threshold is exceeded, preventing damage to the material and the machine.
Infrared heating, with a longer life than filament elements, reduces stops for replacements. This keeps a plastic bending machine productive for long periods, while the operator works safely, with a simple control panel and settings that can be saved per material.
The working length sets the maximum part size: models with a longer table allow large light box sides and displays from a single bend, with no joints. Choosing the right length for your usual products avoids both limitations and needless investment in an oversized machine.
Delivery, Installation and Support
A plastic bending machine is a long-term investment, and UZINEX treats it as one. We arrange transport of the machine across Europe together with the required technical documentation, and we handle commissioning at your premises so production starts without delays or improvisation.
After installation we train your operators directly on your own machine, from the first settings on material to fine-tuning each working recipe. We stay available for service, spare parts, consumables and technical support throughout the machine's working life.
Return on Investment
Outsourcing production means longer lead times, margins shared with subcontractors and dependence on their availability. Bringing the work in-house, onto a plastic bending machine, changes the equation: you control the deadline, the quality and the cost of every order, and the profit stays entirely with you.
For firms with a steady order flow, such a machine pays back quickly through the number of parts produced in-house, plus the new orders you can take on without depending on an outside supplier. The UZINEX team helps you estimate the right volume and configuration for your case.
Maintenance and Reliability
A production machine has to be easy to maintain to stay productive. Routine tasks, checking the heating elements, cleaning the working surfaces and verifying the protection systems, are simple and quick, and wear parts are replaced without complex intervention.
UZINEX supplies spare parts, consumables and technical support throughout the machine's life, so a well-maintained plastic bending machine runs for years with the same precision. A simple maintenance plan reduces unplanned downtime and protects the investment.
