Hydraulic Tube Bender

Rohrbiegemaschinen in unterschiedlicher Komplexität

All in all, there are several different PBT AG machines to choose from. This ranges over five variants from a compact bending machine to the absolutely high-quality version for demanding bending processes on larger workpieces. In addition, the range includes both manual and digital controls, the application or necessity of which depends on the intended use or the selected model respectively. In any case, PBT AG tube bending machines can be used to achieve exact precision and minimal deviations for large batches. Those interested in making a purchase, but who do not yet have any clear requirements, are recommended to have a look at the product portfolio, whereby a distinction must be made between purely hydraulic tube bending machines and those with servo hydraulics.

Hydraulic tube bending machine or servo drive?

As you can see, interested parties from all industries can choose between tube bending machines with purely hydraulic or servo drive. Apart from the budget, the decision is also a matter of requirements. In any case, the hydraulic profile bending machines from PBT AG enable the smallest radii without kinking, so that enormous precision is possible even with a higher pressure capacity of up to 27 tonnes. However, this is also associated with more oil consumption and maintenance, as well as even more energy consumption. The servo-driven versions, on the other hand, achieve energy savings of about 70 per cent, operate more quietly and cleanly and, at 9 litres of hydraulic oil each, consume almost as much as the most compact hydraulic tube bending machine. Last but not least, the differentiation also concerns the control options. All of the purely hydraulic machines can be operated either manually or via tablet with one of the tablet systems as well as the PC400 control system. The servo drives, on the other hand, required the PC400 control, which is, however, also the highest-quality and most advantageous option.

Free training - also for customised products

The mentioned variants of the control system offer, starting from the basic manual operation, more and more variety and thus fulfil very individual requirements. Where complex bending processes are to take place, the PC400 system is necessary, which is also predestined for series production in particular. For single-item production in a single operation, simpler operating variants make sense. Regardless of which option you choose, you will always benefit from free training by PBT AG. This takes place on one day in one of the company's plants and ensures that the responsible employees are intensively trained to work with hydraulic tube bending machines or servo drives. Incidentally, this applies in particular to individual designs. This is because, in addition to the standard models already listed, the product range also includes other profile bending machines made to customer specifications. Additional equipment and extensions can also play a role. For example, mandrel bending devices are useful if thin-walled tubes are to be bent. The accessories and options available individually can be enquired about at any time without obligation.
