High-performance tube and pipe
bending machines
SCHWARZE-ROBITEC is presenting its
extensive product range of tube and pipe
bending machines at FABTECH 2017
in Chicago, USA. The tube and pipe
bending specialist is exhibiting its CNC
100 E TB MR and will demonstrate the
speed and precision of his current high-
performance machines at booth B13074.
In addition, experts from the American
branch office and the Schwarze-Robitec
sales team will be on hand to answer any
questions that visitors may have on the
subject of tube bending.
Schwarze-Robitec places the high-
performance tube bending machine
CNC 100 E TB MR at the centre of its
trade show presence. This all-electric
machine enables companies in the
automotive industry to manufacture the
serial production of pipe systems even
faster and more efficiently.
The machine is equipped with numer-
ous components that reduce downtimes
and thus increase productivity. These
include the rapid clamping system
‘Quick Tool Unlock’. Its central clamping
function allows for a fast change of
bending tools. The best advantage
of all is that the easy tool changes
require a minimum of tools. In addition,
customers benefit from a high degree
of sustainability as this machine can be
used to bend a particularly wide range of
different tube and pipe dimensions. The
NxG control system also contributes
to the fast cycle times of this high-
performance series. Thus the users can
expect a reduction in production time of
up to 35 per cent due to simultaneous
axis movement.

Tube Russia 2017 declared a success
THE Expo Centre in Moscow, Russia,
hosted a joint presentation of four
technology trade shows in June:
wire Russia – the international wire
and cable fair; Tube Russia – the
international tube and pipe fair;
Metallurgy Russia – the international
metallurgical technology processes
and metal products fair; and Litmash
Russia – the international foundry fair.
The four events took place in one
venue, creating ideal synergies for
exhibitors and visitors as well as
short routes between stands. The
regional trade fairs were organised by
Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and Messe
Düsseldorf Moscow, in partnership with
the Russian joint-stock company VNIIKP
for wire Russia, and Metal Expo for Tube
Russia, Metallurgy Russia and Litmash
Russia.
Around 400 companies presented
technical innovations from their indus-
tries, covering an exhibition space of
5,545m2. As well as Russian exhibitors,
many international companies were
represented in Moscow, showcasing
their products and services to the
Russian and Eastern European markets.
With the football World Cup being held
in Russia soon this is proving beneficial
to the Russian construction industry
as well as international companies
that are involved in building Russia’s
many stadiums and are working on
infrastructure projects. Wire, cables,
tubes, metal and foundry products
are needed in large quantities for the
stadiums.
