The manufacturer of pipe bending tells you how to bend circular pipes?

Choose the appropriate bending process: Different processes can be used for bending circular pipes, such as cold bending and hot bending. Cold bending is suitable for bending with small radii and diameters, while hot bending is suitable for bending with large radii and diameters.

Preparation work: Ensure that the work area is clean and prepare the necessary tools and equipment, including pipe bending machines, pipe bending molds, measuring tools, safety equipment, etc.

Measurement and marking: Use measuring tools to measure the position and angle of bending required. Use marking tools to mark the bending position on the circular tube for accurate operation.

Bending operation: Place the circular pipe into the clamping device of the bending machine and select the appropriate bending mold. Adjust the parameters and angles of the pipe bending machine as needed, and then start the pipe bending machine for pipe bending processing operations.

Monitoring and adjustment: During the bending process, closely observe the bending status of the circular pipe. As needed, minor adjustments and adjustments can be made to ensure the quality and accuracy of the bent pipe.

Inspection and testing: After completing the bending process, use measuring tools to check the angle, radius, and straightness of the bent pipe. Ensure that the bent pipe meets the required specifications and quality standards.

Bending process steps:

1. Setting parameters for pipe bending processing: Firstly, set the parameters of the CNC pipe bending machine according to the required pipe bending requirements. These parameters include bending angle, bending radius, bending speed, length of pipe, etc. Usually, CNC pipe bending machines are equipped with control panels or computer interfaces, and these parameters can be set by inputting corresponding values.

2. Material preparation: Cut the metal pipes that need to be processed according to the length requirements, and perform necessary deburring and surface treatment. Ensure that the preparation work for the pipes is completed to facilitate smooth bending processing.

3. Clamp the pipe: Put the pipe into the clamping device of the CNC pipe bending machine and adjust it as needed to ensure that the pipe is firmly clamped and can withstand the forces and pressures during the processing.

4. Programming: Use the control panel or computer interface of the CNC pipe bending machine to write or import the machining program for the pipe bending. These programs include information such as the bending angle, bending radius, and curve path of the pipe. CNC pipe bending machines usually support multiple programming methods, such as manual programming, automatic programming, or CAD/CAM software import.

5. Execute machining: After confirming that the programming is correct, start the CNC pipe bending machine to start machining. The CNC pipe bending machine will control the movement and angle of the pipe according to the preset program, and operate the pipe bending mechanism through hydraulic or motor drive.

6. Inspection and adjustment: After completing the bending process, take out the bending pipe for inspection. Check if the shape, angle, and size of the bent pipe meet the requirements. If adjustments are needed, they can be made by modifying the machining program or adjusting the clamping device.
