A bending machine is a generic term for processing machines used to bend pipes, metal plates, and angle bars.
Bending machines are often specialized machines depending on the workpiece to be processed. There are many types of bending machines available for workpieces of various sizes, ranging from small tools that bend pipes manually to large processing machines that can be programmed and automatically processed using electric, hydraulic, or other actuation methods.
This section describes small bending machines used primarily as tools.
There are many different types of small bending machines, each of which is divided according to the type of workpiece to be processed and the processing method.
Manual bending machines are tools used in field environments where there is no working power source. They are used for bending thin pipes, reinforcing steel wire rods, steel plates, and thin aluminum sheets.
Motorized bending machines are used for bending and cutting operations on rebars and angle bars.
Hydraulic bending machines are used primarily for bending pipes. Some have a combined power source, such as the electro-hydraulic rebar Bending Machine cutter.
Many bending machines are specialized tools for specific applications or types of workpieces, and the points to consider in selecting bending machines differ for each tool.
