Metal Pipe Expanding Machine Pipe End Forming Machine

It is used for shaping, expanding, contracting and end-forming metal tubes for applications such as construction, HVAC, plumbing, automotive exhaust and custom metalworking.

It can process brass, copper, alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, aluminum alloys and carbon steel.

Core components include a PLC, motor and automation. Power is 5 kW, maximum shrinking (diameter) capacity is 80 mm, maximum tube contracting length is 300 mm, weight is 300 kg. Single package size: 100 x 80 x 60 cm; single gross weight: 300 kg.

It means the largest tube outer diameter the machine can reduce (shrink) or process at the end is 80 mm. For larger diameters consult the supplier.

It indicates the maximum length of the tube end section that can be contracted or formed in a single operation is 300 mm.

Yes. The machine offers both automatic and manual control options, controlled via an onboard PLC for automated sequences.

Tooling changeover depends on the die setup. The machine is designed for relatively quick die swaps, but exact changeover time varies by tooling complexity—ask the supplier for tooling options and procedures.

The machine has a compact design and is suitable for standard workshop floors. A level, sturdy concrete or steel-supported floor is recommended. For exact anchoring and electrical hookup requirements consult the installation manual or supplier.

Cycle time varies with material, wall thickness, diameter and the complexity of the end-form. Contact the supplier with your specific tube specs for estimated cycle times.

The machine uses PLC control for safe automated operation; typical safeguards include emergency stop and guarded tooling areas. Operators should use standard PPE: safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection as needed. Follow the machine safety manual.

Regular maintenance includes cleaning, lubrication of moving parts, inspection of dies and seals, and PLC/motor checks. Frequency depends on usage; a basic weekly visual check and periodic scheduled service (monthly/quarterly) is recommended—refer to the maintenance manual.

Common consumables include forming dies, seals, lubricants and fasteners. Spare parts typically include motors, sensors, PLC components and hydraulic/pneumatic seals (if fitted). Ask the supplier for a recommended spare-parts list.

Single package size is 100 x 80 x 60 cm and the single gross weight is 300 kg. For palletizing, crating and freight specifics contact the supplier or freight forwarder.

Installation support and operator training are commonly offered by suppliers. Contact the vendor to confirm availability, training scope and any additional costs.

Warranty terms and after-sales service vary by supplier. Please contact the seller or manufacturer for warranty duration, coverage details and service contract options.
