Extra equipment is available: internal and external
deburring devices, saws and assembly devices for all
the most common connection systems (flange and
with cutting ring for thread cutting), as well as metal
circular saws.
Tight bending radius when using mandrels
For the manufacturing of tube geometries for
individual pieces or small series with rotary draw
bending, transfluid has developed its compact
bending machines with mandrel. They are very
flexible and can achieve a very tight bending radius
even with tubes with thin walls when bending with
a mandrel. This means that the t bend DB 2076K
machine can work with tubes with a diameter of 20-
76mm. If needed, it is possible to transfer data to the
machine with a USB connection. The control system
can store whole bending programs and the machine
comes with an 8-angle pre-selection as standard. In
this case too there is optional equipment, such as
saws, burring devices, cutting ring for threads and
flanges, to manufacture complete tubing systems for
the individual needs.
Interfaces for small runs and a variety of
geometries
As well as tubing and connections for hydraulic
applications, there is more and more often the need
to process CAD data from different programs or to
manufacture complex tubing systems. transfluid
makes this possible with CNC machines that perform
strongly, are simple to use and completely automated.
The tools can be exchanged quickly, making their use
extremely flexible. Because of the price/performance
ratios, they are ideal for small production runs and
for applications with high geometry diversity. These
bending machines work independent of the user and
to the specifications of the individual project. This is
possible thanks to the interfaces available to connect
them with CAD and measuring machines.
Digitally connected to the technical department
and measuring systems
transfluid created its own software t project to
improve the processes and the safety of the
production. The two versions provide controlled
tube manufacturing and connect the machines to
CAD and measuring systems, BDE (Manufacturing
Execution System) or ERP systems. They make
the use of CNC-bending machines or also bending
robots more flexible. For instance, it is possible to
test bending sequences in advance, make sure that
there are no collisions and execute them. Various
additional modules contain the information for
whole sequences, to have better control over the
process and to manage the forming process data. The
software also helps at the cutting stage, reducing any
waste to the minimum.
Separate assembly machines for safe
connections
In addition to its range of machines for bending
techniques, transfluid also offers separate assembly
machines for cutting ring or flange connections. They
operate in an axial or rolling manner to deliver safe
connections. For instance, the combination desk unit
HA 642 makes it possible to have the die ring pre-
assembly and the flanging of tubes with a 6-42mm
diameter. The experts in tube manufacturing
machines will present their variety of solutions for
tubes at the Hannover Trade Fair 2019 in Hall 21,
Stand H38.
