Our Bending Capabilities:
We employ advanced CNC-controlled bending methods to achieve precise results:
· Cold Bending: Suitable for most applications, this method bends the pipe at ambient temperature using mechanical force. It is efficient and ideal for larger radius bends.
· Induction Heat Bending (Hot Bending): For tighter radii and more complex bends, the pipe section is precisely heated by induction coils before bending. This allows for severe deformation without compromising the pipe's wall thickness or mechanical properties.
Key Advantages of Our Pipe Bends:
· Enhanced Flow Efficiency: Smooth, continuous bends minimize pressure loss and turbulence compared to welded elbows.
· Increased Structural Integrity: Fewer field welds reduce potential leak points and weakenings in the pipeline.
· Precision Geometry: Our computer-controlled process guarantees accurate bend angles and radii, ensuring perfect fit-up during installation.
· Material Preservation: Advanced techniques, especially heat bending, are designed to control wall thinning and ovality, preserving the pipe's pressure-containing capability.
