Bending machine for large diameter pipes

microprocessor for setting and controlling the desired bending angle (50 bending programs can be stored and for each program nine sequential bending angles are memorisable); (24V) low tension control panel; auto return at end of stroke; and maximum bending angle of 180°. The maximum bending capacity changes accord- ing to the type of pipe to

CBC Srl produces a wide range of machines and tools for bending, threading, cutting and welding pipes, and for pressfitting systems. The company’s pipe benders include the UNI76, a powerful and accurate machine for bending large diameter pipes. The optimal and constant bending radii do not deform the bent pipes. The machine is suited to the bending requirements of users working in the nautical, oil-hydraulic, industrial and plant engineering sectors. The general features of the UNI76 are spheroidal graphite cast iron body placed on a metal steel base; self- braking, asynchronous, two-speed- motor (voltage and tension on request); digital, electronic unit equipped with
