The machine supports a maximum shrinking diameter of 120 mm and a maximum wall thickness of 5 mm.
It is designed to process a wide range of metals including stainless steel, brass, copper, aluminium/aluminum alloys, carbon steel and other common alloys.
This is a semi-automatic machine, combining manual loading/unloading or setup with powered forming/shrinking cycles to streamline production while keeping operator control.
The machine is equipped with an 11 kW motor. Exact electrical supply requirements (voltage, phase, and starter type) depend on the configuration—confirm the required supply voltage and connections with the supplier or installation technician.
The machine weight is 3200 kg. It requires a stable, level foundation or floor capable of supporting the weight, proper anchoring, adequate space for operation and maintenance, and lifting equipment (crane/forklift) for unloading and positioning.
Core components include bearings, motor and hydraulic or vacuum pump (depending on configuration). Typical spare parts such as bearings, seals, pumps and tooling are usually available—check with the supplier for lead times and recommended spare kits.
The machine uses forming/shrinking dies or tooling that are generally replaceable and can be customized for different tube diameters and end profiles. Standard tooling sets may be supplied; custom sets are available on request.
Cycle time depends heavily on material type, wall thickness, part geometry and the tooling used. Because these variables affect throughput, ask the supplier for sample cycle times based on your specific parts to estimate production rate.
Routine maintenance includes regular lubrication, periodic inspection and replacement of bearings and seals, checking hydraulic/pump fluid levels and condition, electrical inspections, cleaning, and inspection/replacement of tooling as it wears.
Typical safety features include guards around moving parts, emergency stop controls and interlocks. Operators should use appropriate PPE (safety glasses, gloves, hearing protection as needed) and follow lockout/tagout and safe operating procedures.
Yes. The machine can be fitted with customized tooling for specific end-form profiles and can be upgraded or integrated with additional automation or handling equipment per production requirements—discuss options with the manufacturer.
Most suppliers offer operator training, commissioning and start-up support (either on-site or remote). Confirm training scope and any associated fees when ordering.
Given the machine's weight and size, it is typically shipped on a reinforced pallet or skid and requires freight handling with rigging equipment. Plan for dock access, a forklift or crane, and personnel to assist with offloading and positioning.
Warranty terms vary by supplier. Commonly there is a limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and initial parts. After-sales support often includes spare parts supply, technical support and service agreements—confirm specific warranty length and coverage with the seller.
Compare the machine's max diameter (120 mm), max thickness (5 mm), material compatibility, semi-automatic workflow and throughput expectations with your part specifications and production volume. For accurate assessment, provide sample tubes or part drawings to the supplier for evaluation and test runs.
