The Evolution and Importance of Wire Straight Machines
Applications in the Industry
1. Guillotine Shears Commonly used in sheet metal cutting, guillotine shears operate with a straight cutting motion, offering clean and precise cuts without burrs or deformation.
Manufacturers continue to innovate by incorporating various technologies to enhance the capabilities of tube end forming machines. For instance, the integration of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology allows for high precision and repeatability in the forming process. This advancement enables manufacturers to achieve greater complexity in tube designs while maintaining a high level of consistency.
The next step in the manufacturing process is the extrusion of the copper billets into pipes. This is one of the most critical stages, where extruder machines play a vital role. An extruder consists of a heated cylinder and a screw mechanism that forces the copper billet through a die to form the desired pipe shape. The extrusion process can produce pipes of various diameters and wall thicknesses to meet specific application requirements. Advanced extrusion machines are now equipped with computer numerical control (CNC) technology, allowing for high precision and customization in pipe dimensions.
