In tube bending, there are so many variables in material, tooling, consumables, machine operation, and environment that ...

Ever since we launched the Do-It-Yourself column earlier this year, I've been on a mission-literally hellbent on learning things that I should have already known how to do by now. While I don't ...

With the t-bend tube bending machines from engineering company Transfluid, it is possible to bend tubes in multiple dimensions and automatically. The highly efficient computer numerical control (CNC) ...

In this guide, we'll show you how to cut hard water cooling tubing made from Acrylic and PETG. Acrylic is by far the most popular material used for rigid tubing in water-cooling systems, but ...

Siemens Subsea upgrades to an automatic, all-electric Unison tube bender to speed production of small-bore hydraulic tubes for undersea oil and gas recovery. A rendering of Siemens subsea equipment.

An innovative new automatic cell for manufacturing tubular automotive parts exploits an articulated robotic arm to manage intervening movements and transfers. The arm eliminates the need for the ...

Siemens Subsea Products has chosen an all-electric tube bender from Unison to improve the quality and speed the production of the small-bore hydraulic tubes it uses on subsea hydraulic flying leads ...

For auto-body structures, thin walled hydroformed and laser beam welded hollow steel sheet sections are recommended as a replacement for mainly spot-welded box-shape components. Such components have ...

The aim of this study is to develop an analytical solution to the deformation profile of hydroforming pre-bend process, which will be in turn fed into finite element simulation code for subsequent ...
