E-SHAPE
Forming your ideas
All-electric tube forming machines with up to 10 tons of force
See what’s possibleThe punch table works horizontally. No overhead structures to cause interferences. A large number of tools can be used in the process. Do, really do, everything you need, without limits.
Tapering, flaring, closing, facing, cutting and more. Choose the processes that you need and configure the E-SHAPE tube forming machine. The machine is set up for ten processing stations and may be freely equipped with ram stations, rotary tools or cutting tools. By combining these technologies, you can obtain parts with repeatable end forms, finish and quality. If you want, with the E-SHAPE you can also benefit from automatic consecutive ‘head-tail’ operation to process both ends of the tube.

Having 10 tons of force means being able to form shapes in thick walled materials or stainless steel.
One-of-a-kind shape freedom.
Choose the most suitable configuration for your job.
7 ram stations + 3 rotary tools
7 ram stations + 2 rotary tools + 1 orbital cutting tool
8 ram stations + 2 rotary tools
8 ram stations + 1 rotary tool + 1 orbital cutting tool
Being able to work with a rigid, horizontal punch holder table with 10 available punches does not mean working slower. Single punch advancement and variable length strokes can be exploited to optimize the cycle times without trade-offs.

By fitting an orbital cutting device on the E-SHAPE, you can eliminate a secondary cut off operation that would typically require special fixturing to position a bent part for forming.
That is a function you will appreciate day after day.

All electric axis control for all tube forming machine movements (clamping and force control and force modulation) provides accurate tolerances and maximum repeatability.
All setup parameters are saved with the part program.
Simplified wiring and the elimination of hydraulics reduces the maintenance requirements and reduces wear on tube forming components. The obvious advantage is that the machine is safer and more reliable.
"All-Electric" technology means quiet and clean machines that operate with a major energy savings through reduced energy consumption.
Programming job sequences? Very easy. Simply select the punch you want to use and the program will define the most appropriate default settings based on the tool.
