Powerhouse Tube Bending for High Production Shops

The Model 2650 Fabrication Tube and Pipe Bender from Huth Ben Pearson is ideal for volume production of structures like carports and agricultural buildings, fences, frames for trailers, racks and guards, and their Model 1673 Expander-Reducer-Swager machine can form slip joints, flares/flat flares, ball joints, deep swage expansions and reductions.
Hydraulic Plate Roll Bending Machines

Marcovil Stölting 3-Roll and 4-Roll hydraulic plate roll bending machines from CML USA have thickness capacities up to 6 in and length capacity from 19.5 in to 236 in.
Highly Efficient and Productive Tube Fabrication Systems

Advanced systems from BLM Group include their new LT8.10 3 kW fiber laser tube cutting machine for precise laser cutting on a variety of materials for tube diameters up to 9.5 in, the tube bending machines SMART, ELECT 102 and E-TURN 52, and their BLMelements software suite.
High Performance All-Electric Tube and Pipe Bending Machines

The all-electric CNC 100 E TB MR tube bending machine from Schwarze-Robitec can manufacture serial production of pipe systems up to 35 percent faster and more efficiently than ever, using a Quick Tool Unlock rapid clamping system to reduce downtime and increase productivity with fast, easy changes of tooling.
Deep Draw Hydraulic Press System Run by Robots

To perform the multiple operations required to produce a heavy duty high pressure cylinder tank, a 750 ton deep draw hydraulic press from Greenerd Press uses a double-moving platen that is fully integrated with two 6-Axis FANUC robots that load/unload parts and prompt the press to cycle for operations.
Power Straightener for Processing High Yield Materials

The upgraded Series 250 power straightener from COE Press Equipment uses over 30 percent increased strength and rigidity to process Advanced High Strength Steel coil widths from 1.0 in to 54 in, thickness from .010 in to .187 in, and coil weights up to 20,000 lb.
Virtual Press Design Technology Takes Center Stage

Using virtual press design technology via a user-friendly interface, customers can work with Beckwood Press engineers to input a variety of variables (bed size, tonnage, speed, heat parameters, etc.) and generate a preliminary sketch of new machinery that meets their specific application requirements.
Unison to Open New Plant in Virginia

The tube bending machine manufacturer from the UK is opening a $5.2 million advanced manufacturing facility in Danville.
New Class of High Definition Plasma Cutting on Mild Steel, Stainless, and Aluminum

The XPR300 300 amp plasma system from Hypertherm can use X-Definition plasma technology to deliver ISO-9013 Range 2 cut quality on thin mild steel and extended ISO Range 3 cuts on thicker metals, including squarer cut edges, markedly less angularity, and excellent surface finish on non-ferrous metals like aluminum and stainless steel.
Automation Systems for Welding, Cutting, Additive Manufacturing and More

Compact, high performing and reliable Fiber (FF) Laser oscillators from FANUC use direct, high speed control through a robot equipped with LaserTool application software for high precision in a wide range of cutting, welding and additive manufacturing tasks.
Greenerd Partners with FANUC as Tier 1 Authorized Robot System Integrator

To provide advanced automation systems in short time frames, Greenerd now has full access to all FANUC Robot models, training and support.
