The machines must be extremely robust, especially when handling large
tube diameter, if they are to be capable of processing thick walled and
thin walled pipes and, at the same time, achieve radii of 1.5 x D or smaller.
This also requires sophisticated machine and controll technology.
These machines are sometimes used for single pipe bending, with a need for
fast tool changing. The setting-up time can be a major factor and is between
10 and 25 minutes for pipe diameters ranging from 120 mm to 325 mm.

Wall thinning could be reduced and controlled via boosting device.
Pipes can be bend with pre-welded flanges, since we are aware that
economy is of crucial importance in this area. Automatic tool changers
can also be useful in meeting certain requirements. Whether for
single items or production runs, we offer the perfect solution.

CNC
DB 2090-CNC-VE
controlled fully electrical mandrel bending machine for pipes up to 90 mm,
with the option of an automatic tool changer.
To control our bending machines
and forming processes we offer
t control, a powerful software
solution which allows you to
import isometric drawings from
all the popular CAD systems – a
distinct advantage for your online
engineering.
Planning for safety:
In addition to the exact determination
of cutting lengths and
the documentation of pipe data,
our t control software primarily
offers intuitive production process
reliability. This is because
the pipe geometries can be
tested for practicability before
starting the bending process –
thus eliminating the possibility
of collisions with the machine,
the tools or any other elements.
The clever solution:
With right/left bending machines,
the software automatically determines
which bend should be
formed on which head. Extra
length allowances for forming processes
are automatically taken
into account.
If flanges are to be welded on
to the pipe before the bending
process, the software calculates
the required arrangement.
It can, of course, also be employed
for the push bending
process and for multi-level machines.

forming machines,
5-stage, with automatic
tool changing
transfluid ®
forming technology:
when form is a matter of requirement.

Axial forming machines
Precise, fast and universal – the transfluid model REB forming machines.
They offer extreme degrees of forming, complex geometries
and fast tool changing. The tool sequence is positioned horizontally
or vertically by a servo motor. With up to eight forming stages,
additional clamping unit and hydraulic-numerical control, it is able to
fulfill virtually any requirements.
It is controlled via a touch panel with integrated data storage, which
you can use to retrieve and save machine parameters. We can configure
the machines according to your wishes as transfer systems
(with an extremely short cycle time) or as combination machines.

machine, with six axial forming stages and a rotary forming unit
Our rotary technology offers you totally new possibilities for shaping
tubes that have already been axially preformed, for the manufacture
of sharp-edged contours for sealing elements and for the creation
of extremely good finishes. With short clamping lengths, you can form
virtually any geometry – even after bending.
They are controlled via a touch panel with integrated data storage,
which you can use to retrieve and save machine parameters. Manual
settings are not necessary. Our machines can form from inside to
the outside and reverse as well as performing orbital chipless cutting.
If a machine is equipped with a CNC controller, processing is carried
out by means of servo-electric drives. Create different contours using
just one tool!

Orbital
RTO 628
pipe cutting machine from 6 – 28 mm Ø, feed from coil,
with balarina roll and straightening unit

Chipless orbital cutting machines
Our chipless orbital cutting machine allows you to achieve precise
cutting results – so that your tubes are immediately ready for further
processing. Because the cut is so clean, it is possible for you to
carry out forming directly at the cut surface – there is no need for
any further treatment. There is no chance of any deforming at the
cutting position because there is a pulling process during the cutting
operation with varying torques that depend on the tube sizes.
Equipment options:
Cutting rates up to 1,800 pieces per hour, cut length optimization
to minimize residual lengths, from coil with straightening unit
or with loading magazine for straight tubes, controlled multiple
ejection of cut lengths.

Blade cutting unit from 6 - 22 mm, ideal for accurate trimming
Scarfing knife cutting process
RTO 628 6 - 28 mm orbital cutting process
RTO 2076 20 -76 mm orbital cutting process
Our cutting process is ideal for accurate trimming and allows you
to shear the pipes precisely. It produces right-angled, sharp-edged
cuts even where awkward pipe geometries are involved. The two
metal chips that arise can be reliably detected during the process.
Absolute circularity at the cut section is a given for all materials.
You can also employ this cutting process on our bending machines
for cutting curved geometries.
The use of up to three blades is possible in order to meet extreme
requirements. An internal mandrel may also be used to optimize the
process. In addition, it is possible to modify the process in order to
produce cuts in different degrees of the pipe end.

Pipe cleaning machines
You can’t get cleaner – our pipe cleaning machines let you
achieve the highest level of cleanliness.
Pellet cleaning machines are the quickest and most effective
machines for smaller numbers of pieces. Single pipe washing
systems are more reliable when smaller numbers of pieces
must be cleaned to meet more stringent requirements.
The solution for you: For serial production or automated
operation, we offer you washing systems with conveyor belt
transport, pallet cleaning or cleaning inside a washing basket.
We can tailor the performance of our machines very precisely
to your requirements. This applies to both the degree of
cleanliness and the cleaning agent used.
We can, on request, equip all our liquid operated cleaning systems
with a particulate detector. This ensures that your pipes
conform perfectly to the requirements.
