What is tube bending?

Tube bending is a set of techniques to bend straight tubes into different shapes. Bent tubes are used in structures, stair railings, and automotive parts. The process can be performed by using cold or hot methods. Generally, the round stock is used, but rectangular tubes and pipes can also be bent.

A post process can be mandatory to remove burrs. It can also be used with laser tube cutting to add holes and shapes or to cut the edges

What are the benefits of using tube bending?

Tube bending offers more advantages over traditional cutting, bending, and welding processes:

•  Cost-effective: It helps minimize production costs since there are fewer parts and operations. Tube bending reshapes the tube without using welding or adding extra joints.

• Clean finish: Since there are no extra components or messy weldings, the tube finish will be smooth. It is most helpful in areas where the tube is apparent to the users, such as the stairs.

• No leakage: Tube bending eliminates the risk of leaking joints or weldments.

• Low-cost tooling: This process does not require a high tooling price compared to laser tube bending.

How is it fabricated?

At Norck, we offer several tube bending techniques such as :

Press bending: It is the most commonly used process. It uses a punch and two dies to restrain the tube at two points. Then the punch makes the bending operation by advancing.

Rotary draw bending: This process uses a clamp that fixes the tube against a q-shaped bending die. Then a pressure die applies pressure on the free tube against a wiper die to perform the bending. A Mandrell is inserted inside the tube to prevent the outer part of the bend from becoming flat.

Heat tube bending: It is used for more rigid materials, and it is made by heating the tube before bending. The bending can be made by a press that enforces the bend, rotatory draw bending, or rolling.
