Key Features of the Late 90s Era

-Control: Most units from 1997–1999 used the RAS System 5000. It features a graphical interface that allows the operator to draw the part profile directly on the screen.
-Tooling: Usually equipped with a segmented "Goat’s Foot" (sharp) tool on the upper beam, which allows for the formation of four-sided boxes.
-Hemming: The programmable upper beam stroke allows for the creation of closed, open, or teardrop hems without needing specialized tools.
