Tube ring rolling is a process for forming seamless rings. Usually a pierced and headed ring is used as a raw part to be profiled and expanded using a rolling machine. Rotating dies are therefore used for this purpose. The diameter of the rings grows while maintaining a constant volume by reducing the height and wall thickness. Profiled rollers allow the production of shape ring cross sections. The process produces rings of diameters from 10cm to 10m. Cold rolling processes have been used since the 1980s, however hot methods are more common. Continue reading →

There are numerous questions when it comes to tube reduction, manipulation, end forming and expansion. Some of these questions asked are along the basis of is it expensive, structurally sound, and readily available? Continue reading →

Rectangular and square tube manipulation is fairly common, but can be wrought with many challenges. The structure of the tubing being hollow makes it more likely to create distortion problems like shrinkage, growth, and oil canning. Continue reading →

A crucial factor that can have a big impact on tube bending is the material used. Different materials are much easier to bend, and there are different contributing qualities to the final product. The most common materials used in tube bending services are aluminium and variants of steel, so this article is going to be based on these two materials. Continue reading →

Tubing can be bent to consistent radii with no distortion because of its symmetrical nature, but several things must be taken into account in order to avoid rippling. In this post we will explain how it occurs in bending and tube ring rolling, and what material should be used to avoid it. Once the material has been decided on, the right machine, methods, and tools must be used to avoid distortion. Continue reading →

To drill any satisfactory hole in materials, the correct drill bit must be used. Sometimes it needs to be sharpened in order for it to perform correctly.
