Concrete slab for machine support
Thanks for your help. The machine is a 165 ton press brake for bending metal. We will level and anchor it to the floor. Unfortunately, the machine is used and the manufacturer will not give us any information on a required foundation.- mattcpe

Concrete slab for machine support
We are moving into a new building that has a 4" concrete slab. We want to put a 26,000 lb machine in there. The machine sits on 4 legs, equally loaded, so it runs 6,500 lb each. The only thing we have heard is place each leg on a 6" x 6" x 1" steel plate. Do we have to bust...- mattcpe
