Introduction to Rotary Draw Benders
They are equipped with bending die sets that are designed to center the bending work within the head-frame assembly. This design features symmetrically distributed bending forces through the head-frame, eliminating asymmetrical stress, torque, and premature wear of your machine.
To explain it, the tube or pipe is clamped to a rotating bending die or forming die and drawn around by another bending die or static wiping block or bending block and the bending die rotates until the desired geometry is formed.
All die components are matched as a set and are specific to the product being bent. Die sets contain wearing parts. Periodic cleaning and/or replacement of wearing surfaces is required to maintain the highest quality finished parts.
Rotary draw bending is commonly used to form small radius bends in smaller round, square, and rectangular shapes. As noted above, specific tooling is required for each tube or pipe size or shape and bend most importantly CLR, center line radius, more commonly known as radius.
Features and Benefits of Rotary Draw Benders
The most important feature and the only reason why you would use a Baileigh Rotary Draw Bender is its ability to achieve precise and accurate bends, over and over. The combination of the stationary bend die and rotating die ensures consistent results, even with complex shapes and tight radii.
No matter which Rotary Draw Bender you purchase, from the most inexpensive option to the most complex and top-of-the-line model, they all do the same work—they bend a tube or pipe of a specific size into a predetermined radius and desired angle.
Furthermore, there is a lot of versatility in these machines when it comes to tube and pipe bending of different sizes, shapes, and materials. With appropriate tooling, Rotary Draw Benders can efficiently bend tubes and pipes made of steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and even copper. This versatility allows manufacturers to cater to diverse application requirements.
Lastly, the high production efficiency with the combination of precise bending and quick cycle times enables manufacturers to meet demanding production schedules effectively. Whether it’s producing large quantities or smaller batches, Rotary Draw Benders offer speed and accuracy, saving both time and resources.
Applications and Industries
The applications of Rotary Draw Benders span across various industries. They can be used by automotive shops to bend and create roll cages, exhaust systems, and safety systems. In the furniture industries, they enable the creation of aesthetically pleasing and functional designs by bending tubes and pipes for chair frames, table bases, and other furniture components. Other industries that benefit from Rotary Draw Benders are: Ship Building, Architecture, Aviation, and Aerospace.
