2017 Chiao Sheng A50TNCPB Semi-Auto Tube Bender, 50mm OD, 3-Axis, PLC, 10" Touch Screen

The Chiao Sheng A50TNCPB, manufactured in 2017, is a semi-automatic, two-axis hydraulic NC tube and pipe bender with a maximum bending capacity of 50mm x 3.0mm OD. The machine features a 2100 mm useful mandrel length and utilizes a three-axis configuration for flexible production. The bending axis (C-axis) is hydraulic-driven via a chain system, while the rotating axis (B-axis) is powered by a servo motor for digital programming. The feeding axis (Y-axis) consists of a manual carriage with optional digital read-out (DRO) and mechanical position blocks. Operation is managed through a PLC controller featuring a 10-inch touch screen graphic display, capable of storing up to 1,000 part programs or 100 sets of 10 bends per set. Technical features include a hydraulic clamp die, pressure die assist (follower die), and a side booster. The system is equipped with an air-cooled hydraulic unit, a set of mechanical stops, and a mandrel with automatic lubrication and anticipated retraction. The unit supports both manual and automatic modes, with the latter automating tube rotation and bending once the operator positions the carriage. Performance specifications indicate capacities for non-ferrous tubing up to 50.8 x 5.0 mm and steel tubing up to 50.8 x 3.0 mm.
