NEW Tube-line technologies Form-Line 3.0

3″ BENDER FROM TUBE-LINE TECHNOLOGIES:
The Form-Line 3.0 is a popular model in rugged fully-electric tube benders. It is made in America and utilizes the reliable BendPro G2 control. The Form-Line 3.0 is an all-electric CNC tube bender that allows precision programming of all axes to control the rotary draw bending process. It comes standard with a programmable in-line clamp that allows for easy and repeatable tooling set-up. The Form-Line Series utilizes a blue and grey color scheme to not only highlight its elegant design, but also to stand up to harsh production environments.

BOSCH-REXROTH MS2N MOTORS WITH INVERTER DRIVES:
Every electric CNC tube bender from our line of 3 inch tube benders features state of the art MS2N motors, linear guideways, and inverter drives from Bosch Rexroth to ensure that our tube benders have the power and flexibility to bend a wide range of materials.

The Form-Line 3.0 has 150,000 in-lbs of torque (ie. a 3.000 OD x .065 WT (mild steel) on a 3″ CLR requires 135,000 in-lbs of torque; a 3.000 OD x .049 WT (316 sstl) on a 3.0″ CLR requires 134,000 in-lbs of torque.)

BendPro G2 Controls and Beckoff I/O:
Each tube bender is fitted with a Current Tech BendPro G2 controller allowing every machine to be user friendly while maintaining the highest levels of performance, reliability, and functionality available. The control is additionally paired with Beckoff I/O modules which operate with lightning fast speeds making every machine responsive, and reactive to your needs.
