New trends for tube and profile
separation concepts by shear
and cold rotary saw
By Ing Jan Attl, Attl a spol sro, Prague, Czech Republic
The role of bending and forming companies
has always been to spearhead and facilitate
development and engineering brilliance. With
green issues currently riding high on the agenda
of leading manufacturers of vehicles for land,
sea and air, this technology has never been
more in demand. To develop and manufacture
innovative projects, designers and engineers
rely on the versatility provided by bending
and forming expertise. Here we highlight this
technology with examples including spinformed
tube, electric benders for hydroforming tasks,
advanced double wall bending, and variable
radii rolling combined with mandrel bending.

Tube Russia will welcome around 300 exhibitors
to celebrate its fifth anniversary from 28-31 May.
Russia now commands a powerful position on
the international stage, with Russian industry
having flourished with this newfound influence
and prosperity. The metals and pipe sector
have never looked so healthy, with a tight-
knit network of producers looking to upgrade
using international technology. Combined with
Metallurgy-Litmash,
Aluminium/Non-Ferrous
and wire Russia, Tube Russia 2007 will provide
an excellent insight into a complex and often
difficult market.
