Maximum capacity is 40 mm diameter with up to 2 mm wall thickness (often listed as 40 x 2 mm).

The maximum forming (end) length is 100 mm.

Power is 5.5 kW. Machine weight is approximately 1100 kg. Overall dimensions are 2000 x 550 x 1300 mm. Operating (working) hydraulic pressure is 4.5 MPa.

It uses hydraulic control for smooth, precise forming operations.

No — it is a semi-automatic machine. It uses a PLC for control but requires operator loading/unloading and setup.

Core components include the PLC, engine, bearings, gearbox, motor, pressure vessel, gears and pump. The product lists a one-year warranty for core components.

Yes — the product lists CE certification and provides a machinery test report and outgoing inspection documentation.

Recommended materials include stainless steel, aluminum, aluminium alloys, carbon steel, and similar metal pipes and steel bar inputs compatible with the stated size limits.

Specific end-forming dies/tools are required for different operations (reducing, expanding, flaring). Supply of standard tooling may vary—confirm with sales which dies are included and what additional tooling is available or custom-made.

Typical maintenance includes checking hydraulic fluid level and cleanliness, inspecting hoses and seals for leaks, greasing bearings and moving parts, checking electrical connections and PLC function, and following the manufacturer's recommended service intervals.
