Ten-roll tube straightening machines designed for the aluminium sector

machines. Now that a peeling machine has been implemented for processing aluminium bars, the continuous further development of Bültmann machines, especially for the aluminium industry, is having a positive effect in the tube straightening machine sector too. High-precision aluminium tubes, which are often used in the aviation and aerospace industries, require appropriate processing to meet the growing demands for quality in this area. As one of the last production steps before delivery, straightening has a decisive influence on final tube quality. The company can also supply individual solutions for many other specific applications on request.

FOLLOWING the recent successful delivery of a ten-roll straightening machine for aluminium tubes up to a diameter of 350mm to a leading international aluminium producer, a new order for two straightening machines to cover the smaller diameter range of 4 to 150mm has been placed by the same group of companies. The scope of supply includes the straightening machines – type RRM 10/032 and type RRM 10/150 – as well as the special inlet and outlet equipment. The machines include electrical con- trols that are individually tailored to the specific requirements of the customer. Bültmann said that it is proud to supply the machines for the production of these high-quality products. The increasing demand for aluminium products has had a positive impact on the sale of Bültmann tube straightening
