transfluid combines the advantages of axial and roll forming with its „t form“ combination machines
To distinguish yourself from the competition you will need to be in good form. This is true not only in sport, but especially also for tube forming. This is because time-consuming and expensive soldering and welding is often still deployed, especially for tube connections. Users need to deploy more efficient methods to also strengthen their market position in this field of manufacture.
The german company transfluid Maschinenbau GmbH (http://www.tube-processing-machines.com/home.php) is determined to find a solution to this challenge: Managing Director Stefanie Flaeper explains the technical options: „Forming geometries are the answer to most of the requirements here, offering distinct economic advantages. They may be produced with absolute reliability of processing and functionality. Especially forming geometries with O rings are of particular significance in many products, as found in the automobile industry, for instance. Geometries which include a flange for fitment at a later stage are also often needed.“
From soldering to reliable forming
Forms of this type are ideally created using machines capable of both swaging and rolling. The specially developed transfluid combination systems (http://www.tube-processing-machines.com/pipe-forming-machines.php) automatically feed such external components during swaging as needed, accurately positioning and fastening them. This process also creates a „pre-form“ which may be required for any downstream rolling.
Rolling produces the final geometry, creating perfect surfaces for optimal application. „The tolerances, incidentally, are quite comparable with tolerances produced during machining“, explains Stefanie Flaeper. Since extreme precision is required especially during rolling, the rolling head is CNC controlled and freely programmable in all axes of movement, even including overlap. Combination machines allow reliable and effective processing, even for large diameter tubes. For smaller tube sizes, transfluid units are particularly energy-efficient and are driven extremely accurately by servomotors. All types of material may of course be processed reliably.
transfluid Maschinenbau GmbH – the solution for tubes
transfluid is sought after worldwide as a partner for manufacturing tube bending machines and tube processing machines. Since 1988 transfluid has been further developing its technologies for tube machining, so that it can provide customer-oriented, tailor-made solutions – for plant and machine construction, the automotive and energy industries, shipbuilding and medical device manufacturing. As a world-renowned brand, the company from Germany is present in Europe and with its subsidiaries in Asia.
transfluid\\\\\\\“s product portfolio offers perfect solutions in five different machine categories, that meet all the requirements in tube processing. t bend stands for a wide range of tube bending machines, which fulfil the highest demands in terms of industrial applications. The tube forming machines in the t form range offer the perfect tube shaping solutions. Tube forming is important as an individual or supplementary process, in order to obtain optimally tailored tubes. Automation systems are offered as fully developed concepts for bending and forming technology, under t motion. t cut covers the field of tube cutting machines. Here, Transfluid is able to provide a range of different systems, for example for chipless orbital cutting and special knive separation processes. The category t clean encompasses tube cleaning machines. These ensure the cleanliness of workpieces and tubes. Additionally, with the new tu go range, transfluid offers a standardised portfolio of machinery, which is available from stock for immediate delivery. transfluid offers the powerful software t project for rapid and reliable tube processing. It can be used as an effective online solution for bending machines and the majority of CAD systems.
