LANGBOW UK, has unveiled the latest
development from Soco for small-to-
medium precision tube and wire component
manufacture.
The ATM-19 is a comprehensive CNC
tube and wire production cell and can
undertake uncoiling, straightening, end
forming, bending and cutting from coil to
finished component.
The company will be targeting the
automotive, air conditioning, refrigeration
systems, heating systems and hydraulic
equipment industries. Materials including
copper, aluminium and stainless steel can
be processed on this complete process
machine.
The production cell can work from 4mm
tube and wire up to tubes of 19mm OD in
copper and 8mm OD in wire.
It is equipped with Soco’s DGT Technology
(direct gear transmission) the worldwide-
patented bending system offering high
accuracy and repeatability of bend
angle.
Included is the built in Soco proprietary
software and operator interface, which
features an industrial PC and touch
screen.
Bending interference and anti-collision
software are also included in the package.
This production cell has been designed
for small-to-medium diameter tubes and
offers the total solution in one package,
which otherwise would take several
separate processes with the associated
manpower required, downtime between
processes, longer lead times and additional
floorspace.

Products for
sewer systems
and industrial
applications
KERAMO Steinzeug specialises in the
production and development of vitrified clay
pipes and fittings. Three production units
in Hasselt (Belgium), Cologne and Bad
Schmiedeberg (Germany) manufacture high-
quality sewerage products for sewer systems
and for industrial applications.
The company offers a range of pipes and
fittings in diameters from DN 100mm to
1,400mm. In addition to traditional pipes
and fittings with spigot and socket joints,
micro tunnelling pipes, inliner pipes, drainage
pipes, inspection manholes and cladding
sheets are all part of the product range.
Vitrified clay is a material that is created
by firing high quality clay in controlled
circumstances at a temperature of around
1,200°C. In contrast to many other materials
used in the sewerage industry, vitrified clay
is chemically and mechanically resistant and
ensures a long lifespan.
The company sells its products all over the
world, particularly in Europe, the Middle
East, the Far East and Oceania.
