    Angle rolling problems

    I did some more research and I see that common 6061-T6 is only about 10% elongation as T-4 would yeild closer to 16% and T-0 Closer to 30%. Elongation for a 96"in Diameter ring suggests a min of 12% Elongation. So basically in a nutshell your T-6 material has too much memory for a 30" CLR...

    Angle rolling problems

    Are you rolling leg in or leg out? If you are using an anti twist I assume that you are rolling leg in. Please give a better description of what you mean by material cupping. Do you mean that the legs are rounding inward as you bend?

    Ring/roll bender

    They are not too common over here in the States. They are a lot more money then the standard rolls is probably one reason. I have heard mixed review about them. One thing I have heard guys say is that they are not a tough as the fixed pyramid , which would make some sense.Though really I can't...

    Ring/roll bender

    Basically your two bottom rolls are articulated opposed to the standard pyramid rolls. where on those the bottom two are fixed and the radius is made by the top roll, this allows for compounding radii also allows to bend tighter in most cases.

    Rectangular Tube Bending

    This is 4 x 2" Rectangular Solid, and this is a Angle Roll application. Being that it is a Solid, the material it's self capable of being bent to fairly tight radius. The issue being that the Material is going to be very strong and take a very strong Roll machine to accommodate (Which is...

    Source for Large Mandrel-bent Tubing

    I would be curious to hear if you do find someone that is willing to do this. However if you don't here is an alternate solution, With that large of a Radius you could easily have that done non-mandrel with a very high quality bend for much much much cheaper and a fraction of the lead time...

    Looking for a pipe bender. What should I shop for?

    What kind of production level are you looking to get out of a machine? People often say CNC when looking , but do not actually need a CNC Bender. You can buy NC mandrel machines at a much more affordable price , and get high quality bends still. It is just not as fast. The main thing if you are...

    Can you radius bend 8020 Aluminum Extrusion?

    It sounds like Ries has the right Idea, To get the best Quality result I would suggest to Roll with a Delrin tool set and maybe put some internal polymer splines on the inside channel (the inside of the bend) or all four channels of the T if you have the time and material. I used to have a...
