From Manual Muscle to Modern Mastery For decades, tube bending has been a cornerstone in manufacturing — shaping materials for industries as diverse as aerospace, automotive, HVAC, and defense. Early bending machines were purely mechanical, requiring...
As temperatures rise and summer adventures hit full stride, manufacturers of recreational vehicles (RVs) and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) shift into high gear. This is the season when performance, safety, and reliability are put to the test—on trails, at...
Manufacturers today face a tough balancing act when choosing the right tube and pipe bending equipment. On one hand, they need machines that can handle rigorous workloads and last for decades. On the other, they need to stay ahead of the curve with...
The Challenge: Downtime and Inefficiency For manufacturers in industries like aerospace, automotive, and HVAC, production efficiency is everything. Yet, one of the most persistent bottlenecks is slow tool changeovers that lead to costly downtime. Every...
How Bending Eliminates Production Bottlenecks and Increases Efficiency For decades, welding has been an integral part of metal fabrication. While effective, it introduces complexity—slowing production, increasing costs, and requiring additional testing...
Pines has delivered a new Pines #2 NC bender to the Spanish Air Force. With the capability to make multiple bend parts up to 3-inch in diameter this machine is expected to play a significant role in maintaining their aircraft at the highest level of...
Pines has taken a standard #1 NC bender and added an automated feed system. The powered traction feed rolls precisely position the tube prior to bending. A secondary collet system helps maintain position during the manual flip over between bends. An...
Debuting at the 2019 FABTech show, Pines introduces our e40 Electric bender. This new model has the same power and capability as our standard hybrid CNC040 but with all the features you have come to expect from an all-electric bender. The new CNC bender...
Government inspectors recently witnessed a parts run-off of a new #8 NC bender for use at a U.S. Navy shipyard. Tests included bending 2-6-inch NPS pipe with a variety of pipe schedules and material types. Test samples were checked to meet ovality and...
