Tube Max Orbital
KANEFUSA’s Tube Max Orbital is a new carbide sawblade
for the orbital sawing of steel pipes.
Usually the rim velocity is set between 200-300m/min for
flying cut-off machines. However, many customers require
higher speeds of more than 400m/min for productivity reasons.
Due to less secure pipe clamping and coolant requirements,
sawing conditions are severe for a flying cut-off machine.
Under these sawing conditions Kanefusa Tube Max Orbital
has been performing consistently in factories around the world.
The three main features of Tube Max Orbital are: tooth edge
wear of conventional sawblade takes place faster during high-
speed sawing and blade life becomes dramatically shorter.
With the new coating, higher wear resistance can be achieved
under high-speed rim velocity of more than 400m/min; a new
gullet shape is applied for higher wear resistance. Together
with the new coating this prevents edge wear under high-
speed sawing conditions; and for flying cut-off machine with
high-speed parameter, a choice of edge materials which can
sustain not only edge wear but also heat crack and chipping
becomes an important factor. Tube Max Orbital provides stable
cutting quality by adopting the most appropriate edge grade in
accordance with the customer’s requirements.
By adopting these new technologies Kanefusa Tube Max
Orbital benefits from greater heat and edge wear resistance.
In addition, these characteristics have made Tube Max Orbital
a unique product that can achieve a longer lifetime under
high-speed sawing conditions and for high tensile pipes such
as material X80. Kanefusa aims to contribute to much higher
productivity with this new product.

Die sets and
mandrels and wipers
BEND Tooling Inc has supplied companies around the world
with tube bending tooling since 1986. The company produces
die sets, mandrels and wipers for rotary-draw tube-bending
machines for most makes and models.
The precision machining of every feature of its tooling
eliminates hand working, improves quality and shortens
lead times. As a developer of modern inserted mandrels
and wipers, its designs are used by production tube bending
operations in the automotive, sports vehicle, HVAC and
hydroforming industries. They are also used by speciality
tube bending companies because of their consistency in
specification, which facilitates frequent changes in set-up.
Bend Tooling also manufactures solid-body mandrels and
wipers for those tube bending jobs that require them. This
primarily includes bending under extreme high pressures
and bending non-round tube.
