How the Tube Bending Process Works
Tube bending involves a tube that is placed against a die, the created force is used to bend the tube to the die’s shape. Bending processes can also involve rollers for simple curves, and mandrels which are placed inside the tube in order to keep the inside from collapsing or deforming during the process. Industrial tube bending services provide an effective way to bend and shape a piece of tube metal so that it conforms to the exact needs of your application.
