Tube end forming - Import export

Our rotational technology increases the possibilities of forming on tubes with minimal expenditure on tools. All the drives are servo-electric by design and, if needed, CNC-operated. In our SRM rollforming machines, all the settings are preloaded, so there is no longer any need for costly adjustments. Different tool variants further expand the processing possibilities for chipless cutting or post-bending cutting. The machines can produce internal and external profiles and can also roll in synchronicity thanks to a special tool head (inside/outside).

Our type REB axial forming machines, with their compression power of up to 287,000 lbs, are particularly well-suited to effortlessly master complex geometries. With up to 6 forming steps in combination with an additional clamping unit, they will satisfy almost all requirements. The operation is simple and intuitive with a touch panel. The sequence control makes each separate movement of the respective forming step user-friendly and fully programmable. We offer the option to equip our systems with electric or hydraulic-numerical drives. These forming processes can be completed stepwise in transfer systems to achieve very short cycle times. Simultaneous axis movements ensure fast production processes and an efficient and highly dynamic production.

With the new generation of our combination machines, we have continued to develop the new diversity for forming pipes. Geometries that effectively replace high-cost and expensive turned parts can be formed directly at the pipe end in the endforming machine – for a final component of a single workpiece that is ready for use without elaborate soldering or welding. Implementation of the combination can be specified by you or based directly on the forming geometry. This is usually done using up to 6 axial forming stages and at least one rotary unit. Trimming, as well as axial and rotary forming, may require 2 rotary forming stations. Simple trimming or deburring after forming at the pipe end are no demanding challenges. Therefore, all our axial forming machines and combination machines are equipped with one or several single-drive axes. They have a servo-electrical drive and can be used in each of the holders for the forming stages, making the system is very flexible and compact.

GURTEC’s Heavy Mining Idler Roller is setting a new standard for high speed mass transportation and life cycle costs. Our highly automated manufacturing line utilises a flow forming process for extremely round tubes and an end forming process to round shell edges and integrate concentric bearing houses to the roller shell body, avoiding the need for welding.
