2.Bending Performance & Precision

Q3: What is the bending accuracy and speed?

A3: The bending angle precision reaches ±0.1°, pipe rotation precision is ±0.1°, and the standard bending speed is 4°/s. The machine supports 10-segment speed adjustment for a single pipe and independent action sequence setting for each bending point, which effectively improves processing accuracy and avoids pipe collision.

Q4: What is the maximum bending angle and bending radius?

A4: The maximum bending angle is 185°, and the maximum bending radius is 700mm. It supports customized bending radius according to customer workpiece drawings, and can realize 1D minimum bending radius forming for special process requirements.

3.Applicable Materials & Workpieces

Q5: What types of pipes and materials can this machine bend?

A5: It is compatible with multiple metal materials including mild steel, stainless steel, copper and aluminum. It can process round pipes, square pipes, rectangular pipes, angle steel and special-shaped profiles, widely used in automobile exhaust pipes, engineering machinery pipes, building profile and pipeline processing.

4.Operation & System Function

Q6: What are the intelligent control functions of the machine?

A6: It adopts a multi-language touch screen (Chinese/English customizable), stores up to 400 groups of processing programs. It has automatic fault detection and screen display function, independent bending compensation value setting, and supports two feeding modes: clamp feeding and direct feeding.

Q7: Is 3D multi-directional bending supported?

A7: Yes. As a 3D CNC bending machine, it supports multi-angle and multi-directional continuous bending of a single pipe, completes complex pipe forming in one clamping, and is suitable for high-precision customized pipe workpiece production.

  • 5.Common Faults & Solutions

Q8: What to do if the bending angle is inaccurate?

A8: Two main reasons and solutions: 1. Encoder sensor deviation, need to recalibrate the sensor; 2. Metal pipe rebound, adjust the bending compensation value on the system to correct the angle error.

Q9: How to solve pipe flattening and wrinkling during bending?

A9: Adjust the hydraulic clamping pressure to the standard range of 15-18MPa to avoid excessive clamping force causing pipe deformation; check whether the mold and mandrel match the pipe specification, replace mismatched molds, and use a mandrel for thick-wall and large-diameter pipes to support inner walls.

Q10: What causes feed limit error and how to fix it?

A10: The error is mainly caused by incorrect feed parameter setting or limit sensor misalignment. Reset the feed stroke parameters, calibrate the travel limit sensor, and clean sensor dust and foreign matters to restore normal operation.

  • 6:After-sales & Service

Q11: What is the price and delivery cycle of the machine?

A11: FOB price is USD 40000-41000 per unit, with a monthly production capacity of 20 sets. The conventional delivery cycle is 15-25 working days after deposit confirmation.

Q12: What after-sales support and training are provided?

A12: We provide detailed English operation manuals, video tutorials and remote online guidance. Factory on-site machine operation and maintenance training is available. The machine supports long-term technical consultation and spare parts replacement service.

  1. Application & Certification

Q13: What industries is the 168CNC tube bender suitable for?

A13: Widely used in engineering machinery, automobile manufacturing, petrochemical pipeline, aerospace accessories, municipal engineering and hardware profile processing industries, especially for large-diameter thick-wall pipe mass production.

Q14: Does the machine have relevant certification?

A14: The equipment has CE certification, complies with international manufacturing and safety standards, and supports export to global markets such as Southeast Asia, Europe and America.

What is a pipe cutting machine? its types, advantages, and industrial application

What is a cold saw pipe cutting machine? The cold saw pipe cutting machine is a metal precision milling pipe feeding device. Unlike grinding wheel friction hot cutting machines, all the heat generated from cutting is carried away with the metal sawdust, and the pipe cut remains at room temperature throughout the process, avoiding high-temperature erosion or annealing deformation, hence the name “cold saw.” Relying on carbide/high-speed steel circular saw blades to mill and cut pipes at low speed, rather than friction breaking, unlike traditional band saws or frosted saws, cold saws use circular blades with hardened teeth that rotate…
