Tube bending is a process that involves shaping a tube or pipe into a specific shape or geometry. The tube is placed into a die, which is a tool that forms the tube into the desired shape. The tube can be bent to a variety of angles, and may be bent in multiple directions to create complex shapes. Tube bending is typically done using a machine called a tube bender, which applies force to the tube to bend it into the desired shape.
Tube bending services are used in a wide variety of industries including automotive, aerospace, construction, medical device and many more. The tube bending process can be used to create parts such as exhaust pipes, roll cages, and frames for vehicles, as well as structural components for buildings and other structures.
Tube bending services can also include CNC (computer numerical control) tube bending, which is a highly automated form of tube bending that uses computer software to control the movement of the tube and the die. This allows for precise, high-speed tube bending of complex parts, and the ability to easily switch between different materials, sizes, and geometries.
Tube bending services can also include manual tube bending, which is performed by a skilled operator using a hand-held bender tool, this process is typically used for one-off parts or for smallbatch production and for precise or delicate parts that require more accuracy.
Overall, tube bending services are a versatile and cost-effective way to create a wide range of parts and products, and are used in a wide variety of industries and applications.
