Spiral Heater Bending Machine HT-B5

The HT-B5 Tube Bending Machine is a high-performance industrial machine, specifically designed for the bending and forming of tubes. This versatile tube bender specializes in creating complex shapes such as spirals, convolutions (serpentines), full circles, and semicircles. Its design is based on a system of interchangeable molds that allows the operator to quickly and easily switch between different bending types, adapting to production needs with unprecedented agility. The entire operation is governed by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), which guarantees millimeter-level precision, perfect repeatability in every piece, and high production efficiency, minimizing manual intervention and errors.

The PLC-controlled HT-B5 Tube Bender is the definitive solution for companies looking to automate and optimize the manufacturing of tubular components with specific geometries. If your process requires the mass production of spiral electric heaters, serpentines for heat exchangers, or any component needing precise circular bending, this machine is your best ally. Forget slow and imprecise manual processes. Thanks to its robust mold system and powerful 2KW motor, the HT-B5 transforms straight tubes into high-quality finished products continuously and reliably. It is a strategic investment to increase production capacity, reduce labor costs, and guarantee a superior quality standard in every manufactured piece.

The versatility of the HT-B5 Bending Machine makes it indispensable in a multitude of sectors. Its primary application and where it truly excels is in:

Manufacturing of Tubular Electric Heaters:

This machine is the tool of choice for shaping tubular electric heaters. It allows for bending the metal tube containing the insulating material and the resistive wire into the required geometric shapes for its final application. It is ideal for creating:

  • Spiral heaters for ovens and air heating systems.

  • Circular and semicircular heaters for hot plates, grills, and heating bases.

  • Serpentines (convolutions) for immersion heaters and flow systems.

Other Industrial Applications:

  • HVAC-R Industry:​ Manufacturing of serpentines for small heat exchangers, evaporators, and condensers.

  • Automotive Sector:​ Bending of small-diameter tubing for brake lines, fuel, or hydraulic systems.

  • Metal Furniture:​ Creation of decorative and structural components with circular or spiral shapes.

  • Medical Equipment:​ Manufacturing of components for instruments and equipment requiring pipes with precise shapes.

  • High Versatility:​ Capable of performing multiple bending types (spiral, circular, semicircle, serpentine) on a single machine simply by changing the mold.

  • Total PLC Control:​ The PLC control system guarantees maximum precision, consistency, and repeatability in mass production, eliminating deviations typical of manual work.

  • High Production Efficiency:​ Designed for automation, it drastically reduces cycle times and increases daily production volume.

  • Ease of Operation:​ Mold changes are a quick and intuitive process, allowing for production reconfiguration for different products with minimal downtime.

  • Robust Construction:​ With a weight of 300 kg and a solid chassis, the machine is built to withstand long shifts of continuous work, ensuring a long service life.

  • Quality Finish:​ Performs clean and precise bends without damaging the tube surface, guaranteeing a finished product of high aesthetic and functional quality.

  • Cost Reduction:​ Minimizes the need for specialized operators and almost completely eliminates material waste due to human error.

  • Increased Production:​ Its high speed and efficiency allow you to accept higher volume orders and meet tighter delivery deadlines.

  • Consistent Quality:​ Every piece is identical to the previous one, guaranteeing a quality standard that your customers will notice and value.

The HT-B5 is not just a machine; it is a competitive advantage that will position your company one step ahead of the competition.

FAQ

This is one of the best features of the HT-B5 tube bending machine: the mold change is designed to be quick, simple, and intuitive. We understand that in a production environment, time is money, and that is why we have optimized the process.

No, it is not difficult. No advanced engineering knowledge or complex tools are required. An operator with basic training can perform the change without issues. The process consists of loosening the clamps of the current mold, removing it, placing the new mold (for example, switching from the spiral mold to the circle mold), and securing it.
