The machine is practical
and easy to use, and
requires only one tool
change to carry out the
flaring operations. This
enables processing
time to be reduced to a
minimum, as it is carried
out easily without the
need for additional
equipment.
The machine uses a
cold orbital forming
process to create a flat and smooth sealing
surface at 90° and 37° with a suitable
rugosity for the O-ring seal. This avoids
the formation of processing signs which
can occasionally occur with common axial
deformation processes.
The system is compliant with the pipe
flaring requirements regulated by SAE and
ISO standards. The various possibilities of
adjustment and configuration of USFL 90/37
allow any flaring diameter and thickness to

be obtained. The semi-automatic processing
cycle allows the flaring process to be very
fast, reducing costs and avoiding welding or
soldering the clamping ring to the pipe end.
The final cycle lay-up ensures optimal
flaring and finishing results.
