Mandrel Bending & Forming


The process of mandrel bending is used when the geometry of the profile is to remain consistent during and after bending.


Profile Manipulation : Mandrel Bending and Forming

A precision mandrel of the same profiles is held within the profile during bending to prevent the profile from collapsing, whilst external tooling is applied to prevent the profile from distorting.

Mandrel bending allows tubes to be bent to ever decreasing radii without deformation.
