Just beyond the induction coil, the heated pipe material is quenched using a water spray on the outside surface of the pipe.Upon reaching the required temperature range, the pipe is pushed forward slowly at a speed of 10-40 mm/min, and the operation is stopped when the specified bend angle and pre-determined arc length are reached.Once everything is set as required, hydraulic pressure, water level, and switches are inspected and then the induction bending operation is started.The pipe can be moved slowly whilst the bending force is applied by a fixed radius arm arrangement.
There is one pointer to display the correct degree of turning. By adjusting the radius arm and front clamp, the required bend radius can be fixed.To ensure uniform heating, the induction coil can be adjusted with a 3-plane movement.
