Tee bending machine

Description:

A quicker and more effective way to straighten tees is with a BIT serise section bending machine (also called a “profile bending machine,” or an “section bender.”). The curved steel tee is run through large rollers with smaller calibrating rollers until it is straight.

Metal tees are not something that is normally produced by steel mills. Almost all metal tees are produced by splitting I-beams through the use of rotary shears or torches. The cutting can be done down the middle of the I-beam to create to equal sized tees, or performed off-center to give a pair of tees of unequal depth.

Because steel I-beams release stress when cut into tees, they will spring apart, giving them a stem-out radius and making it more difficult and time-consuming to straighten or bend into a stem-in form.

BIT series profile bending machines offers tee bending services which allow for a tee to be bent stem up, in or out in order to meet your exact needs. BIT series profile bending machines can bend tees of any size, from the smallest to largest pieces, as well as many different materials to ensure that you get the service that you need for your project.

Steel tees are often used as stiffeners for curved plates, but are also used as parts for agricultural and construction equipment. When used on the inside of a curved plate, they are rolled stem-out and rolled stem-in when used on the outside of a curved plate. Tees are frequently used for roof trusses, canopies and lintels. They have also been used as parts for agricultural and construction equipment, and other components of various types of machinery.

The process is faster than ram straightening and provides superior quality. Mill tolerance for straightness of tees is 1/8in variation from straightness in ten feet. Ram bending can achieve this tolerance. With roll straightening, however, tolerances of 1/8in over 40 feet and longer can be achieved.

BIT serise section bending machine can bend carbon steel tees, stainless steel tees, and other custom-bent metal tees to match your unique specifications.

When bending steel tees stem in, the radius or diameter is usually specified as measured from the outside of the flange. (Please see image.)

When bending steel tees stem out, the radius or diameter is usually specified as measured from the inside of the flange. (Please see image.)

When bending steel tees stem up, the radius or diameter is usually specified as measured from the center line of the flange.

BIT seris profile bending machine bend steel tees stem out, stem in, and stem up from the smallest sizes 80mm up to 350mm x 350mm-1/2# tees.

BIT seris profile bending machine can bend steel tees with a web thickness of 35mm.

Applications for Steel Tees:

When steel tees are used as stiffeners on the outside of curved plate, they are usually rolled stem-in. When used as stiffeners on the inside of curved plate, steel tees are usually rolled stem out. Because our stem in tees have flat stems, our customers can use automatic welding equipment to weld the tees to plate; wavy tees would not allow for automatic welding. Stem up steel tees can be used as base plates or lintels curved in plan.

Construction applications for steel tees include roof trusses, canopies, and curved lintels. Equipment applications include parts for agricultural and construction equipment, tank supports, and other component parts of machinery.

Mechanical part:

The machine is small in size, compact in structure, reliable in performance, convenient in operation and maintenance, and the bending accuracy meets the requirements of industry standards;

With the pre-bending function of the profile end, only one process is required to complete the bending of the workpiece;

Structural form: three-roller arc type.

Drive mode:

   The three work rolls are mainly driven rollers, which are realized by hydraulic motor and gears. The upper roller is fixed in position, and the two lower rollers are hydraulically driven, which can be used for arc lifting movement around the fixed rotary center;The lifting displacement screen shows that the work roll is provided with a roller and a correcting guide to ensure the winding quality of the profile of the asymmetric section;

The auxiliary roller can achieve three forms of motion:

A, lifting movement.

B, can simultaneously perform an arc lifting movement with the lower roller;

C, can perform rotary motion at the same time, digital display of motion state, eye-catching and intuitive, and observe the molding quality of the profile during the rolling process;

Equipped with a separate mobile console for easy operation.

 Body: The structure is welded by Q235 (ASTM: A283GRC, A284GRB, A306GR55) steel plate and subjected to stress relief annealing. The strength and rigidity meet the requirements of China and industry standards;

Can roll angle steel, flat steel, channel steel, I-beam, light rail, steel pipe and other materials (need to replace the mold);

The work roll spindles are all self-aligning roller bearings.

The mold material is 42CrMo forging, quenching and tempering treatment HB235~270, and the whole quenching, excellent comprehensive mechanical properties, high strength, strong wear resistance, suitable for high load work, long service life.

The rotation of the work roller shaft is rolling frictionBearing characteristics of work roll shaft diameter: Low speed, heavy load, high torque rolling bearing, low reactive loss, high working efficiency and low energy consumption.

The movement method of the arm is no-track motion, which overcomes the disadvantages of manufacturing difficulty, easy wear and large friction coefficient caused by the slide track.

Reduces consumables and extends machine life.

The arm and the cylinder are used to push the roller shafts on both sides, and the energy-saving and labor-saving lever principle is applied to reduce the reactive power loss.

Hydraulic & Electrical:

The main valve groups in the hydraulic system are selected from the famous Chinese brand Yuci. The valve group is a casting flow passage with large flow rate, low resistance, small pressure loss and low heat generation, which makes the machine performance more reliable.

The hydraulic pipe joints are all equipped with China's new technology - quick-connect fittings, which have a reliable radial seal to ensure that the hydraulic system does not leak oil during operation.

The hydraulic system has suction and oil return filter to ensure the cleaning of the system. There is an air filter to ensure normal gas exchange and evaporation of the water tank. There are two-way safety protection devices in the system to ensure the safety of the equipment.

Each input and output of the hydraulic system is equipped with corresponding detection points for easy maintenance and fault checking. The oil pump adopts the lower type and positive pressure oil absorption. At the same time, the filter is equipped with a liquid level gauge and a liquid temperature gauge. The hydraulic station is independent of the base for easy maintenance and away from heat.

Strictly in accordance with Chinese national standards and Chinese industry standards, the bending radius is reasonable, and not less than 900, smooth and excessive, reasonable arrangement of shock absorber moving pipe clamps, effectively avoiding shock, vibration, and ensuring that the hydraulic pipeline has no impact and vibration.

The design fully considers high efficiency and energy saving, reduces power waste, and reduces heat sources.

Provide instructions for common fault phenomena and troubleshooting methods for hydraulic systems of bending machines.

The main electrical components of the high-power part are selected from China's high-end high-quality products, featuring long service life and long time-to-failure.
