Sustainable bending technology from Germany

A further new development is the Quick Tool Unlock rapid clamping system for bending tools in series and mass production, which enables fast and easy tool change, reducing unproductive set-up times. Cost savings can be achieved with the separating system integrated in the bending system. Here, several individual tubes are coupled to one bending program and are separated after bending with maximum speed by means of the separator. As clamping and support lengths are not required, there is less material loss and scrap.

TOdesign tube processing to be resource conserving and efficient, Schwarze- Robitec has developed a series of sustainable solutions. These include integrated residual length optimisation for tube bending machines for automobile industry suppliers, which reduce residual tube lengths to a minimum, making material savings. Trials by customers have shown that the material input, depending on the respective tube system, can be reduced by up to 20 per cent. The Terminal-End-Bender is used for the manufacture of tube systems in power plant construction. With this additional bending machine, bends in both directions are conducted subsequently at the rear end of the produced tube coil without having to interrupt the fully automatic manufacturing process.
