Features

This advanced system specializes in precision tube end forming for copper and aluminum tubes (Ø3–8mm diameter, 70–400mm length). Featuring a PLC-controlled automatic feeding hopper with adjustable width and pneumatic gripper transfer, it achieves 4–5 tubes/minute with ±0.05mm inner diameter tolerance. The rotary forging shrink head with casting shell ensures deformation-free processing while reducing operational noise, ideal for HVAC and refrigeration component manufacturing.

Intelligent Automation & Material Handling

The machine automates the entire workflow—from adjustable hopper feeding (70–400mm tube length) to pneumatic gripper transfer and unloading. Its linkage-based feeding mechanism prevents material jamming while the integrated tube detection system eliminates misfeeds, ensuring uninterrupted production and high throughput.

Precision Forging with Deformation Control

Equipped with a rotary-forged shrink head and custom cutting dies, the system maintains Φ1.9–10.0±0.05mm inner diameter accuracy. A patented tube-holding clamp secures materials during expansion/shrinking (30–50mm processing length), preventing distortion even at high speeds.

Flexible Configuration & Quiet Operation

Operators can customize feeding strokes via the HMI interface and rapidly adapt to varying tube dimensions. The vibration-damped forging structure and noise-optimized dies reduce sound emissions, enhancing workplace comfort without compromising the 2.2KW motor’s performance.

Industrial-Grade Durability

Built with heavy-duty casting components and a rigid 860kg frame, the machine withstands continuous 380V/3-phase operation. Maintenance-friendly access points and alloy tool heads extend service life for demanding production environments.
