If a company has a demand for precision tubular parts in low volume, EvBend 2000 can provide a solution that has both a lower capital equipment cost and a much reduced need for operator skill.вЂќДЄ new CNC-controlled tube bending machine from Unison with a semi-manual action can substantially lower the cost and skill level required to produce precision tubular parts in small volumes.Д®vBend machines reduce the entry costs to precision rotary draw tube bending by using manual operations to feed and rotate tubing and move the bending arm, but with smart CNC-controlled braking on the carriage feed, rotation and bend arm axes to ensure part shapes are formed with the highest accuracy. ItвЂ™s intrinsically safe, thereвЂ™s no need for a safety fence, mat or scanner. вЂњThe project to design a larger version of EvBend was started in response to user demand,вЂќ says Alan Pickering, CEO of Unison.

Operator safety continues to be assured by the requirement for human force on the bend arm to engage the power assistance, plus a form of вЂdead manвЂ™s switchвЂ™, which provides a fail-safe mechanism that instantly removes the power assistance if the operator lets go or relaxes the grip on the handle. With the launch of the EvBend 2000, Unison has found a way to extend this formula to larger tubing sizes, without sacrificing either safety or simplicity. The EvBend concept is very well liked because of its lower cost compared with buying an automatic bending machine, and for its intrinsically simple and safe mode of operation. This assistance allows machines to handle larger tubing diameters up to 2 inches/50 mm, including tubing made from hard high-performance alloy materials.

The new 2000 series machines can provide a bend torque of up to 5500 Nm to assist operation of the bend arm. However, very precise tube bending results are also assured by a unique CNC control system for the tube feed, carriage rotation, and bend axes.Д®vBend 2000 is a variant of UnisonвЂ™s successful EvBend 1000 manual machine which can handle tubing diameters up to 22 mm and is widely used in the aerospace sector. This approach makes the machine intrinsically easy to understand and use вЂ“ requiring just a few minutes of training вЂ“ and inherently safe. The new EvBend 2000 rotary draw tube bending machine has a unique architecture combining manual set-up with semi-manual operation of the bending arm вЂ“ which has servomotor power assistance. Target sectors for the new machine вЂ“ which can bend tube diameters of up to 2 inches/50 mm вЂ“ include shipbuilding, and equipment for oil, gas and other processing sectors.

Recently, the tube bending machine innovator Unison launches what it believes is a new category of tube bending machine designed to substantially lower the cost and skill level required to produce precision tubular parts in small volumes. 2-inch tube bender meets small-batch needs of shipbuilding, oil/gas & processing sectors
