B—01 / CNC TUBE BENDING

CNC tube bending, from technical drawing to measurable production.

We evaluate CNC-controlled tube bending projects together with material, section, wall thickness, geometry, tooling and verification requirements.

01 / TECHNICAL SCOPE

A bending decision involves more than tube diameter.

Feasibility is reviewed using outside diameter, wall thickness, material, centerline radius, bend angles, straight lengths and rotation between bends.

Requests in stainless steel, carbon steel, copper, aluminum and brass are assessed part by part. A material name alone does not constitute production approval.

In sourcing terminology, similar work may be called CNC pipe bending. Our technical review follows the supplied tube or pipe standard, outside diameter and wall thickness rather than treating tube and pipe as interchangeable terms.

  • Dimensioned drawing or 3D data
  • Material specification, outside diameter and wall thickness
  • CLR, bend angle, rotation and tangent data
  • Quantity, target date and inspection expectations

02 / INTEGRATED FLOW

Cutting, bending and secondary operations are planned together.

MM / B—01 / 02 Millimeters Matter® Geometry becomes production through measurement.

Where required, cutting, CNC bending, end forming, machined fittings, fixtures, laser welding, oxy-fuel welding or brazing can be connected within one production plan.

Process controls may include product-specific gauges, fork gauges, Hexagon CMM measurement and CAD comparison by 3D scanning.

T—01 / TECHNICAL REVIEW

Let us review your tube geometry.

Share the drawing, material, diameter, wall thickness and quantity so the suitable manufacturing route can be reviewed.
