Our brand new all-electric high power dual stack CNC tube bending machine
Here at Tubecraft we have expanded our bending capacity and in February we took delivery of a brand new all-electric high power dual stack CNC mandrel tube bending machine. The latest investment will increase our capabilities further, both in terms of capacity and the ability to tender for a greater range of projects.
Our new all-electric high power dual stack CNC tube bending machine has the capacity of bending up to 206mm diameter tube and up to a radius of 1000mm. The bends that we will produce on this machine are used mainly for the pneumatic conveying systems for plastic, food and chemical industries.
If you have a project that requires high quality bends in the Vacuum or Pneumatic conveying industries please give us a call to discuss your requirements further.

Mandrel Bending of Tube and Pipe for Pneumatic Conveying
Smooth Flow Path: Mandrel bending minimizes deformation and wrinkles on the inner surface of the bend. This results in a smoother flow path for the conveyed material, reducing the risk of blockages and turbulence that could affect conveying efficiency. Consistent Diameter: Since the mandrel provides internal support, the pipe retains a more consistent diameter throughout […]
An Introduction to Section Bending
Section Bending, also known as profile bending or section rolling, is a metal forming process used to bend or curve structural shapes and profiles into specific shapes or radii. Unlike section rolling, which primarily focuses on changing the cross-sectional shape of the material, section bending is all about altering the curvature of the material while maintaining its original […]
