PBC Section Bending Machine
PBC Section Bender: Double-pinch, Up to 9 Drive Units, and 3D Bend Guide Rolls Offer Infinite Bending Possibilities for Profiles & Pipes of any Size.
What is
Section Bending Machine?
The section bending machine is used to roll all types of materials and structural sections: rolling mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, bronze, brass, copper, and other alloys. For special bending applications, BIT offers different unique section rolling solutions beyond the standard PBC section bender.
The combination molds equipped with the PBC section bending machine can cold bend and roll angle iron (angle bending machine), flat bars, square bars, square & rectangular tubes, round & square rods, channels, I & H beams(Y-Y axis), and T-bars. Optional tooling allows for the bending of I & H beams(X-X axis), round tube & pipe, oval tube, roll-formed shapes, aluminum extrusions, and special profiles.
Section Bending Machine is named as Profile Bending Machine, Section Rolling Machine, Angle Bending Machine, Angle Roll Machine, Angle Roller, or Section Bending Machinery.

Performance
PBC Section Rolling Machine
PBC excels with robust frames, large shaft sizes, durable bearings, and high drive torque, ensuring unmatched performance and durability compared.
PBC is designed specifically for the high-sectional modulus bending process:
Monoblock robust frames reduce twists and deformation, stress relief enhances stability, and 5-axis CNC machining ensures precision and longevity.
Chrome-nickel alloy steel shafts reduce deflection, ensuring precision bending, running on self-lubricating spherical roller bearings.
High torque driven by 3-roll rotation, enabling efficient bending with fewer steps, and making it possible to create a high-sectional modulus bending process.
The bottom two rolls can move independently of each other, permitting bending symmetrically and asymmetrically and providing the opportunity to perform the pre-bending process on both edges.

How it Works
The working phases of a section bending machine include loading, roll movement to achieve pinching, the working phase involving pressure increase and profile deformation, and unloading.
PBC section bending machines with a driven-by 3-roll rotation system, makes bending easier and prevents marks on the material, particularly when bending round or square pipes. This design offers superior flexibility, allowing for optimal performance.

Structural Feature
Small in size, compact and reasonable in structure, reliable in performance, and convenient in operation and maintenance.
PLC control system that records the position of the rollers in each bend, allowing for easy repetition of operations.
PBC section bending machines offer the flexibility to be positioned both vertically and horizontally, accommodating different bending requirements.
Self-aligning roller bearings reduce friction, enhancing efficiency, while trackless movement in the pivoting arm minimizes wear.
