Machine Structure & Functions

  • Clamping system: Hydraulic three‑point clamping, firm grip with no slippage.
  • Bending mechanism: High‑torque hydraulic cylinder with plate chain drive, encoder for precise angle positioning and slow‑bend control.
  • Mandrel system: Hydraulic mandrel retraction (selectable on/off) to prevent ovality and surface wrinkling.
  • Boosting function: Synchronized side boost, enhancing bending quality especially for thick‑walled pipes.
  • Tooling: Quick‑change mold design for fast setup and high productivity.

Operating Modes

  • Manual mode: Single‑step operation for clamping, bending, mandrel movement, return.
  • Semi‑automatic mode: One‑key automatic bending cycle after angle presetting.
  • Automatic cycle: Multi‑bend program storage for continuous, unattended batch production.

Key Advantages

  • Heavy‑duty integral cast frame for maximum rigidity and vibration damping.
  • Encoder‑based closed‑loop angle control for consistent bending precision.
  • Hydraulic system with efficient cooling unit for stable operation in harsh industrial conditions.
  • Flexible mode switching, ideal for both mass production and small‑batch custom jobs.

How to Choose a Pipe End Forming Machine

Core Selection Criteria 1. Dimensions Before & After Forming Dimensional data of raw tube and finished tube end is the primary basis for model selection and die design. Key note: Excessive single‑step deformation will cause cracking or wrinkling. Heavy deformation requires multi‑station progressive forming. Suggestion: Prepare a 2D drawing marked with raw tube and finished end dimensions for manufacturer evaluation. 2. Number of Forming Stations Station quantity defines how many forming operations can be completed in one clamping cycle without manual die change. Tip: Select stations strictly according to your process flow; do not blindly purchase extra unused stations. 3….

Automatic vs Manual Pipe Cutting Machine

Manual pipe cutters work well for small workshops handling low batch orders, while automatic pipe cutting systems are built to reduce manual handling for continuous production. Beyond cutting precision, operators also need to consider labour cost, workpiece consistency and changeover time when selecting equipment. 1. Core Definition Manual Pipe Cutting Machine Operators manually load tubes, adjust fixtures, set cutting length and trigger cutting one piece at a time. Simple structure, low investment, suitable for small batch or prototype jobs. Automatic Pipe Cutting Machine Equipped with automatic magazine feeding, servo length positioning, pneumatic/hydraulic auto clamping, continuous cutting and automatic unloading. Pre-set…
