This is a pipe bender that has realized a design-focused "continuous bending method" that allows for the bending of composite R and gradual R along a three-dimensional free curve in a single, uninterrupted stroke.
■Frequently Asked Questions and Answers from Customers
1. This machine adopts the "push-through bending method," allowing for the replacement of the die & guide set, push rod set, and pipe holder according to the pipe's outer diameter and wall thickness. The bending radius (R), bending angle (T), and for three-dimensional bending, the axis angle (P) parameters can be edited using a dedicated Windows program (EasyProgramming), enabling the cold plastic processing of pipes in a continuous, single-stroke manner. This significantly reduces subsequent processes such as welding.
2. You can convert the centerline of pipes, composed of straight lines and arcs designed in your 3D CAD, into a processing program using the included IGES converter. This allows for flexible prototyping similar to a 3D printer.
3. Our machine excels at handling large radii at the meter level, complex R with varying bending radii, and three-dimensional complex R/bending with gradual changes, which are challenging for conventional pipe benders.
4. To prioritize the freedom of bending processing, we do not use a mandrel. The minimum bending radius is 3DR.
5. We welcome both prototyping and mass production. We can also provide virtual jigs using the latest 3D measurement systems.
