Shrinker Stretcher

Hi Folks

Just wanted to show the result of the last days of work on FREECAD on my Shrinker/Stretcher.
Waterjet cutting is already in progress and abt. 90% of the other parts are in my workshop and waiting to be assembled.
Apart from the 300 mm throat depth, one special feature are the swiss made jaws from ECKOLD with quick release mechanism. The machine is designed for 1.5mm mild steel sheet metal or 2mm aluminum.
Machine uses a pneumatic membrane cylinder from a truck brake system. It will bring 3 tons of pressure on the jaws by putting 5 bar of air pressure on the cylinder.
Will post photos when it is finished (hope this is done sometimes in March 2018).

Greetings from Germany
