Maintaining and repairing central heating systems

With the summer nights starting to feel a little cooler, many of us have considered giving our home heating systems a test run ahead of the winter. It is always advisable to do this around the end of August or during September, as this lets you know that it’s working as it should be before you need it. In most cases it turns out to be running as expected, but there’s always going to be a few who find that their home central heating needs to be repaired or replaced. Continue reading →

Setting up to reduce issues

CNC machining has revolutionised manufacturing but there is one area that it has not has a big impact on: tubing. Tubes are still best made using more traditional techniques such as bending, rolling and manipulation. These allow products to be made efficiently, to a high standard, and cost effectively.

Gaining higher efficiency from tube bending services

The practical advantages of tube bending services are relatively straightforward. Carrying out tube manipulation on precast, straight tubes reduces the time and expense you would experience by having shaped and bent tubes created specifically for a design purpose. We do not believe, however, that savings should be limited to just the straightforward and obvious. We use a process which provides our customers with maximum efficiency, using tube manipulation to achieve all kinds of design requirements. Continue reading →

Producing the exact components you need

Tube bending is required for a variety of different applications, from shop fittings to furniture frames. Bent tubes make up a large variety of parts for a myriad of products and, because of this, it is a popular service that we provide to an array of clients across a number of industries. Whatever industry our customer is working in, they can be assured that we will provide them with the exact components they require. Continue reading →

Tips for drilling tubes

Drilling holes in tubing requires the utmost precision and accuracy. The rounded surface presents many challenges and means the tube needs to be secured in place to prevent it from rotating. Even more care needs to be taken with thin walled tubes, because these are more susceptible to damage. It is better to hire an experienced specialist to do the job rather than attempting it yourself. Slipping when trying to drill is hazardous and could cause injury to the worker, as well as damaging the tube. Continue reading →

Higher levels of construction benefit from lower costs

At the moment, there’s the unmistakable sign that more construction work is taking place in the UK than ever before. The demand for new housing and business premises, as well as restorations and refurbishments for existing buildings, is at an all time high. However, although there has been an increase in activity, it seems there has not been a rise in the costs of construction materials. This could be down to an increasing emphasis on efficiency and beneficial use of technology. Our tube bending services have been at the forefront of construction and manufacturing for years, and we are happy to contribute towards keeping the costs of construction low. Continue reading →

Equipping our team for excellent work

The engineering sector as a whole is constantly in a state of flux, with processes, materials and consumer demands all capable of changing at a rapid pace. The tube bending industry is no different, particularly when you consider the increasingly complex geometries required for various projects. Tubes can now be curved, angled and even made into a spiral if necessary, regardless of the shape of the tubing. Continue reading →
