Induction bending machine provides torsional support for sections during bending

The new Inductaflex IF30 induction bending machine, available from Trilogy Machinery Inc., features a device that provides torsional support for sections during bending.

Created primarily to serve the induction pipe bending industry, especially the oil and gas sector, the machine recently was used to curve a W27 beam intended for a large building structure in North America to a 42.65-ft. radius. Final radius accuracy was within 1/8 in. over 50 ft.

Inductaflex machines can induction bend pipes from 3 to 84 in.
