A machine for forming an inverted U-shaped folded fin with an aspect ratio of H/W includes a stationary frame, a locating device, a folding tool carrier and successive first, second and third folding tools. The carrier is horizontally and reciprocally mounted on the frame. The three folding tools are drivably carried by the carrier, each tool with a width substantially equal to W including an upper clamping block and a lower clamping block respectively for fixing a metal strip during formation of the heat dissipating fin. The first and second tools and the second and third tools are respectively spaced from each other at a distance substantially equal to H when the machine is at an original position. The locating device is also drivably mounted on the frame for fixing the horizontal metal strip relative to the frame when the three folding tools do not clamp the strip.

[What is claimed is:] [1.]successive first, second and third tools drivably mounted on the machine, each tool with a width substantially equal to W including an upper clamping block and a lower clamping block respectively for fixing a metal strip during formation of the heat dissipating fin, the first and second tools and the second and third tools being spaced from each other a distance substantially equal to H when the machine is at an original position;wherein after a metal strip is fed into the machine and horizontally clamped by the three tools, the second tool moves at an angle toward an upper side of the first tool and the third tool moves horizontally toward the first tool to a position where sections between the first and second tools and between the second and third tools become vertical.
