Pipe bends in seconds

Delivery to the USA: We have redesigned the cutting head for a cutting and bending cell.

As connecting pieces, pipe bends are an essential part of installation technology and can be found several times in every house and apartment. Dreiling Maschinenbau GmbH has designed and manufactured a machine for Viega LLC, international manufacturer and global market leader of a wide range of products for installation technology, which produces these pipe bends as a high-volume product and prepares them for further processing – in just a few seconds. We successfully delivered this machine to the USA in September 2023.

At Viega LLC in McPherson (Kansas), the approximately 21-metre-long so-called cut-and-bend cell for pipe bends now marks the start of a production line and first bends metal into the typical shape for pipe bends before cutting them to the correct length – in less than three seconds. To enable the machine to meet the customer’s high-performance requirements, we completely redeveloped or redesigned a cutter (cutting head).

Within 15 months, the cutting and bending cell was ready for its journey to the USA. We organized the professional transport so that it arrived at its destination undamaged after around eight weeks. There, our employees assembled it and put it into operation.
