The practical answer
A press brake may be considered as manufacturing equipment, including used machines subject to condition, value and lender criteria.
Provide tonnage, working length, controls, year, serial number and supplier quote. Itemise tooling, delivery, installation and training so eligible equipment can be distinguished from other project costs.
Explain how the purchase supports existing work or a credible order pipeline. Allow for commissioning and operator readiness rather than assuming full production from the day the supplier is paid.
Commercial finance is subject to status, lender approval and the specific asset and transaction. The right structure depends on the complete circumstances of the business.
What should I do next?
Have the asset details, supplier information and an outline of what the business needs ready. DCF can then discuss the requirement and identify which lenders may be suitable.
