Many paths not only lead to Rome, but also to the desired product result. Of course, the production technologies and systems are very important for safe processes in tube processing. The solution finders of transfluid use their knowledge in development of the properly coordinated tube bending and tube forming machines for this.
The high-tech machine engineers produce additional added value also by precisely coordinated production of tools, as Stefanie Flaeper, managing director at transfluid, explains: „We develop tool technologies that match our machines. Of course, they correspond to the complete requirements that our customer has to his specific product or any new one.“ This development always must be viewed in connection with a machine accordingly. „Of course, we share our individually developed know-how with our customers,“ says Flaeper. „They participate and profit from this in different ways.“

New paths for better production
Effective new design of individual process steps often secures economically more efficient production. For example, a transfluid project required a production cell for production of special short tube parts. A classical process would have been defined initially by cutting the tubes by metal circular saw, unilateral forming of the hose connection, tube bending, cutting off the overlenght and forming the second tube end. „We don’t stop our considerations at the proper geometry,“ Stefanie Flaeper emphasises. „The path to the result must be just right as well. That includes making it more economically efficient, process-safe and easier for our customers.“

Chipless to the faster cycle
Thus, the better system solution after completing the transfluid project is that the material from the coil is initially shortened to the desired lengths in the chipless orbital cutting procedure. The clean cut permits immediate further processing and paves the way for faster cycle times. After cutting, both sides will be end formed. transfluid generally puts this step before tube bending. In this case, it avoids having to cut off the overlengths and permits simpler handling, finally, the desired tube parts are bent as well. „It always depends on the process, good interaction of technologies and the possibility of an effective cooperative partnership,“ Stefanie Flaeper finally summarises.

transfluid Maschinenbau GmbH – the solution for tubes

transfluid is sought after worldwide as a partner for manufacturing tube bending machines and tube processing machines. Since 1988 transfluid has been further developing its technologies for tube machining, so that it can provide customer-oriented, tailor-made solutions – for plant and machine construction, the automotive and energy industries,
shipbuilding and medical device manufacturing.

transfluid\’s product portfolio offers perfect solutions in five different machine categories, that meet all the requirements in tube processing. t bend stands for a wide range of tube bending machines, which fulfil the highest demands in terms of industrial applications. The tube forming machines in the t form range offer the perfect tube shaping solutions. Tube forming is important as an individual or supplementary process, in order to obtain optimally tailored tubes. Automation systems are offered as fully developed concepts for bending and forming technology, under t motion. t cut covers the field of tube cutting machines. Here, transfluid is able to provide a range of different systems, for example for chipless orbital cutting and special knive separation processes. The category t clean encompasses tube cleaning machines. These ensure the cleanliness of workpieces and tubes. Additionally, with the new tu go range, transfluid offers a standardised portfolio of machinery, which is available from stock for immediate delivery. transfluid offers the powerful software t project for rapid and reliable tube processing. It can be used as an effective online solution for bending machines and the majority of CAD systems.
