The experienced technical staff, as well as continuous investment, has built S+C Bowers & Jones into a centre of competence for the design, manufacture and worldwide distribution of rolls, for a wide range of sizes and for many applications. The complete in-house service provided by B&J’s engineers includes in-depth technical advice on rolls as well as the optimisation of production processes. Fax: +44 1902 864654 5E27 AS the first supplier on the international market for tube bending machines, Schwarze-Robitec GmbH offers a solution that can bend tubes with diameters from 8 to 40mm both to the right and to the left in one go, and at the same time fully integrates the advantages of a loosely mounted bend former.

no longer necessary, so the fully electric CNC 40 rotation tube bending machine avoids having to change bending direction and therefore saves on set-up times when bending complex tube shapes. As this new solution needs no second bending head, the investment in the CNC 40 Rotation is around 20% lower when compared to conventional solutions, said Schwarze-Robitec.

Aside from the reduction of acquisition costs, the new tube-bending machine works with 13 CNC-axes and is remarkable for its intuitive operator guidance on the control system. “A single day of initial practice is enough to understand the control concept and operate the machine,” explains Schwarze- Robitec managing director Bert Zorn.
