Aluminium Tube Benders

Innovative machines for bending tubes

PBT AG offers a range of profile bending machines - from a compact steel and aluminum tube bending machine and to a complex system for the largest profiles such as beam constructions. Using high-quality technology, this product range allows both manual and software-based digital controls of the bending process. Depending on the requirements and the available budget, results with the highest precision and the smallest radii can be achieved:

- ARKUS12 tube bending machine, 540 kg weight:

The ARKUS12 tube bending machine represents the most compact of all PBT AG models. With a pressure capacity of 12 tons, 110 mm high rollers (optionally also 220 mm) and a roller diameter of 45 mm, it is suitable for bending profiles in aluminum, steel and other materials in smaller sizes. The distance between the front rollers can be infinitely adjusted between 256 mm (optionally 80mm) and 518 mm, which, with an additional bending attachment, enabling the smallest radii of up to R35 mm. Thanks to its relatively light weight, the steel and aluminium tube bending machine can be transported with a lift truck and can thus be repositioned quickly and flexibly.

- Tube bending machine BENDO, 1050 kg weight:

Compared to the ARKUS12, the BENDO goes a step further in many respects. With 20 tons, it has almost twice the pressure capacity and, with 200 mm as standard, almost twice the height of the rollers, which means that correspondingly larger profile diameters are possible. The shaft diameter of the rollers is 65 mm in diameter. The minimum distance between the front rollers, however, is 280 mm, so that a small radius can be achieved when bending without kinks and with clean transitions. The weight also allows the machine to be transported on a pallet truck.

- Pipe bending machine PBT25, 1150 kg weight:

The PBT25 is the strongest of all purely hydraulic tube bending machines, with a full 27 tons of pressure capacity. Thanks to its modular design, it can nevertheless be adapted to bend both small profiles and larger workpieces. As standard, the height of the rollers is 300 mm, the roller diameter 105 mm and the minimum distance between the front rollers only 200 mm. For all its strength and flexibility, the PBT25 can still be moved using a lift truck thanks to its 1150 kg weight.

- PBT35 Servo tube bending machine, 2250 kg weight:

As the very first model with servo drive on all three rollers, the PBT35 Servo was unique in its development. The innovation and performance inherent in it is still exemplary today. The servo drive achieves a pressure output of 35 tons with 70% energy savings and only 9 liters of oil volume. In addition, the distance between the front rollers starts at 360 mm, so that the bending radius is only slightly larger compared to purely hydraulic machines - which in turn also applies to the height of the rollers at 400 mm. The roller diameter is 105 mm. Due to the weight, a forklift or crane is required for transport.

- Pipe bending machine HELIX Servo, 5500 kg weight:

The HELIX Servo represents the second and also even more complex model with holistic servo drive. With a pressure capacity of 65 tons, a minimum front roller distance of 630 mm and a roller height of 500 mm, this tube bending machine is aimed at aluminium, steel or other materials in larger sizes, such as beam elements. Despite the powerful output, the servo drive ensures high energy savings and low oil consumption. However, the enormous weight makes the use of a crane necessary for transport.
