Pipe and tube bending shapes suitable profiles without assembling every change in direction from separate straight pieces. The process can support rails, frames and other tubular structures.
Bend qualification
Outside diameter, wall thickness, material, bend radius, bend angle and straight lengths between bends determine tooling and process suitability.
Downstream operations
Bent components can be assessed for cutting, drilling, welding, polishing and assembly as part of a complete fabricated product.
