The right Tekkabend EX configuration starts with the work your shop produces most often. All three models automate channel letter bending, but they are built for different material ranges, workflow complexity, and production targets.
Start with your most common letter work.
Choose the machine around the jobs you run every day, not just the most complex job you may receive once in a while. The comparison above gives a quick visual reference for the three configurations.
Tekkabend EX-L: compact and practical.
EX-L is the compact, value-focused choice for sign shops working with common North American aluminum profiles and flat coils. Its five-axis coordinated structure is well suited to dependable daily production when floor space, simple setup, and practical operating cost matter.
- Choose EX-L for aluminum trim cap, F returns / Korean profiles, Foam + PVC Channelume, and flat coils up to 7 in.
- Best for growing shops that need professional output from a compact platform.
- A strong fit when the material family is consistent and production does not require broad special-shape processing.
Tekkabend EX-S: premium trimless and edgeless work.
EX-S is designed for premium trim cap-free and edgeless channel letter workflows. It is the right choice when clean edge profiles, illuminated letter applications, and repeatable bending quality are central to your product offering.
- Choose EX-S for trimless / edgeless letters, halo-lit letters, side-lit letters, LED light boxes, complex logos, and detailed fonts.
- Best for shops building a premium illuminated-letter capability with a focused material and application range.
- A practical choice when refined finished appearance matters more than a broad all-material platform.
Tekkabend EX-P: broad materials and advanced production.
EX-P is the most flexible configuration. Its independent planer and precision milling slotting systems, switchable bending structures, and broader material capability support more demanding work across metal coils, profiles, and special-shaped materials.
- Choose EX-P for large letters, plaza letters, floor-standing letters, beveled letters, and special-shaped metal signs.
- Best for shops that process multiple metal and profile families or expect their product range to expand.
- The right investment when one machine must cover varied jobs, higher complexity, and broader production flexibility.
A quick selection guide.
- Choose EX-L when your priority is compact, cost-effective production for common aluminum profiles and flat coils.
- Choose EX-S when premium trimless, edgeless, and illuminated letter work is your main business.
- Choose EX-P when you need the broadest material range, independent double slotting, and the flexibility to take on more complex work.
Confirm your workflow before ordering.
Before selecting a configuration, prepare a list of your common materials, profile width, material thickness, finished letter style, daily output target, and available floor space. Tekkaform can use this information to recommend the best EX setup for your shop.
