UNISON says its launch of all-electric benders for handling tubing diameters of up to 175mm has opened the field for a new class of tube bending applications.
According to Unison, the machines from its Breeze line can now generate bending torques as high as 165,000 Nm/121,698 pound feet. The Breeze 170 machines opens up new application possibilities for aerospace and shipbuilding companies.
The company says the ability to accommodate 175mm diameter tubing makes the Breeze 170 particularly suitable for handling lightweight high-strength ducting manufactured from specialist materials. All-electric machines have become preferred over hydraulic actuation in tube bending applications involving precision shaping, exotic alloy materials, or small batch sizes.
