Bendtech Industries has been developing and manufacturing cold tube bending machines that are specifically designed for the requirements of power plant construction for a number of decades,. We are deeply familiar with bending high-strength and heat-resistant steel, as with thick-walled high-pressure pipes up to 150nb. We deliver efficient and precise mandrel-free bending to produce high-quality boiler tubes up to a radius of 1D with minimum wall thickness reduction and optimum ovality.
Benefit from our unique mandrel-free bending service that reduces production costs thanks to precise results, without any post-processing. Our optimised processes mean you can considerably reduce material usage and maximise project efficiency. This also applies to the latest high-resistant steels, whereby our method betters the tolerance specifications for wall thinning and ovality.
We offer special booster bending services for the particular requirements of power plant construction, with and without the use of mandrels for single-term and batch production. We can also provide precise mandrel-free cold bending for the smallest radii. Alongside our booster bending machines, our heavy duty machine line offers another optimum solution for various bending tasks in power plant construction. Equipped with special tools, these machines bend thin and thick-walled tubes with various diameters and radii available.
When it comes to the batch production of boiler tubing and tube serpentines, you need a powerful tube cold bending machine. With our CNC machine line up you can depend on a real all-rounder, which has been optimised for automatic production processes and offers proof of its full efficiency. We have fitted it with numerous technical features, starting with the CNC multi-axis control unit, continuing with the integrated tube positioning device and the smart booster with its programmable boost factor. These provisions means we achieve improved performance with minimised costs.
