Drilling holes in tubing takes care and precision

Tube drilling can be a complex process because of the curved surface of the tube. Care and attention is needed to ensure that the hole is in the perfect position and is drilled cleanly. If the work is rushed, then there is a risk of the tube being damaged or of the hole being drilled inaccurately. Alongside our various tube manipulation and bending services, we offer expert tube drilling which we complete with the utmost attention to detail, ensuring that all holes are in the perfect position and are finished off as cleanly as possible.

Expanding tubes to the required size

Tube expansion is the technique implemented to increase the diameter of tubes. It is just one of the many manipulation services we offer, and allows for the use of tubular products in a variety of industries. When we expand tubes, there are two different methods to consider. Specialised manufacturing tools are required for the successful shaping of materials in tube manipulation and for ram forming expansion we use a die. The process incorporates insertion of the die into the tube with a significant amount of force behind it. Upon retraction of the tube, the end is successfully expanded. Continue reading

Food grade stainless steel has good corrosion resistance

In the food processing industry, it is highly important to ensure that all working environments are free from contaminants. Whether manufacturing, storing or transporting food, it is essential that systems are as clean as possible to ensure there are no knock-on effects to consumers. Stainless steel is widely used in the sector because it means receptacles, pipes and other metallic equipment will have higher levels of corrosion resistance. Many of the steels are also hardened so they can be used for cutting and grinding with minimal chance of snapping. Continue reading

Swift and cost effective tube bending

Precision machinery needs precision components. It is often the case that the diameter of a tube is not required to be the same through the entire length. In these circumstances we apply a process called tube swaging that serves to alter the diameter of the tube in question. Every tube manipulation service we provide offers fantastic flexibility, and swaging is no different. The process can increase or decrease the diameter of a tube easily. Increasing the diameter of a tube is achieved by inserting a die, which results in the tube altering to assume its shape. Decreasing the diameter of the tube involves exterior hammering to force the material to shrink, and by extension the diameter. Continue reading
