The Evbend 2000 rotary draw tube bending machine combines manual set-up with semi-manual operation of the bending arm, which has servomotor power assistance.
According to Unison, this makes the machine intrinsically easy to understand and use – requiring just a few minutes of training – and inherently safe. However, precise tube bending results are also assured by a CNC control system for the tube feed, carriage rotation and bend axes.
The 2000 series machines can provide a bend torque of up to 5,500 Nm to assist operation of the bend arm. This allows machines to handle larger tubing diameters up to 2"/50 mm, including tubing made from hard high performance alloy materials. Unison says the Evbend concept is popular because of its lower cost compared with automatic bending machines.
