Aircraft & Helicopter Tube Bending Applications




HMT builds precision tube benders for forming tight radius bends on thin wall tubing used in the aircraft industry. Our machines are equipped with the following outstanding features: Precision linear bearing guided pressure die with servo following. This causes the pressure die to follow the speed of the bend die automatically. The operator can also advance or retard the pressure die movement by a percentage directly from the control system. Retractable wiper die base with hydraulic clamping which moves the wiper out of the way so the carriage can advance closer to the bend die. This results in material savings on costly alloy tubes. The hydraulic clamping insures correct and repeatable position of the wiper die. Reverse acting mandrel with guided linear bearings. This removes the load from the mandrel rod and produces more extraction power than forward facing extractor cylinders. The unit also allows the mandrel rod to spin freely to avoid losing rotation orientation in the collet on tight fitting mandrels. Porting of the bend head for using a water jacket to provide cooling for “Hot Bending.” Programmable pressure settings for precision control during thin wall alloy bending.
