Streamline operations are particularly required in such cases, in which a product cannot be installed until several components are available. This was the reason why in a recent project, transfluid developed a system solution for the efficient production of a complete exhaust manifold made of 4 or 6 different stainless steel tubes.
For this purpose, a 6-meter long tube is first loaded onto the tube-bending machine. ... Read more
In the middle of it all and from really impressive perspective, the visitors at the Fabtech trade show in Chicago were now able to discover the advanced transfluid tube processing machines using VR technology. Using a special app on a smart phone that was placed in corresponding VR glasses, the guests immersed themselves virtually into four different high-tech solutions right then and there at the machine manufacturer's trade show booth and experienced tube processing digitally up close and ...

Cutting tubes is an art. A process is especially valuable if it avoids scrap and makes the immediately following process possible. For example, in exhaust technology in the automotive industry (at least when engine manifolds are involved), short tubes are frequently required, which feature numerous bends in short sequence. Of course, there is always the option to bend previously cut parts. However, it"s often the case that workpieces are cut on one side or both sides and, under some ... Read more
