Made Expo - Milan, 17/10/2012

Made Expo is Italy's best attended international architecture and building trade show. 

In addition to the essential commercial aspect, modern trade fairs are expected to perform an equally important communication and promotion function.

In today’s scenario, a successful exhibition is one that succeeds in effectively supporting the development and promotion of the entire production chain, one that fosters relationships between the worlds of production, users and research. The objective of MADE expo is to satisfy a precise market requirement, to overcome the lack in Italy of an important world-class showcase.

The objective is to guarantee productive excellence in terms of the technology and design of our businesses an exhibition setting able to capture international attention, able to dialogue with the media and trade professionals used to doing business in highly evolved contexts. Also corporate in the business of bending machine will partecipate at this fair, in particular for the market of roll bender and tube benders.

The MADE expo initiative was masterminded by Eventi Srl and Federlegno Arredo Srl, organised by MADE Eventi Srl and promoted by FederlegnoArredo and UNCSAAL, formerly historical partners of Saiedue.

With the new Milan Exhibition district as a venue, the organisers have set themselves the target of creating an exhibition able to further develop the dynamics of success present in Saiedue on an up-to-date and international stage able to consolidate a position as an essential landmark in the world building and architectural circuit.

ROLL BENDER

A roll bender is a very robustly built and powerful pipe roller capable. This can be used in any fabrication shop or out in the field on job sites, considering it only requires 220 volts of single phase power to operate. It can be operated in both the vertical mode for small rolling projects, as well as in the horizontal mode for large rolling projects as there are feet on the bottom and back of the machine.

Roll benders work by "pinching" the flat workpiece between two rolls and bending it as it comes in contact with a forming roll. This bends the workpiece into a cylindrical form, where it is welded together to produce a cylinder. Caps are then welded on to produce tanks.
The upper roll is in a fixed position, the lower roll has adjustable movement to perform the gripping function. These are the "pinch" rolls. The third roll (the forming roll) is also adjustable.

Truly built to do the job year after year, these machines are designed with all three rolls driven. This insures easy material feeding and constant pull through of the workpiece.

With a manually or air adjusted drop hinge, the top shaft is automatically raised to release the pressure on the rolled sheet when the tail hinge is lowered. The rear forming roll is adjusted manually on some standard models.

This pipe bending roller has a motor to direct drive gear transmission for positive transfer of power to the drive rollers. The transmission is overload protected by a variable speed inverter drive unit. The variable speed is controlled by a speed pot and becomes very handy when rolling various types and sizes of metal section. This ring roll bender comes standard with foot pedal controls, segment rolls, and lateral roll guides that are very handy when coiling is required. The top roll position is manually descended and the position is indicated on a scale for repeatable bends every time. Optional rolls can be purchased for different profiles like tubing, pipe, angle iron and much more.

Ring rollers are built to a very high quality standard using only the best components on the market. The powered models come with heavy steel plate frame designs, heavy bases, and industrial grade transmissions with overload protection as standard. These ring rollers offer more quality for the investment and will perform decades of service. It is typically in stock for shipments within 72 hours or less.

· Driven Rolls

· Variable Speed

· Rolls are hardened

· Steel bending

· Rolls shafts are a special steel material that is hardened and ground

· Standard Rolls

· Angle Rolls

· Horizontal and Vertical Working Position

· Foot Pedal

· Users manual

ANGLE ROLLS

Angle rolls are made from high-strength chrome-nickel alloy steel, and are the largest diameter shafts of any comparable machine. These heavily proportioned shafts help minimize deflection, resulting in improved bending. The roll shafts are journalled in oversized SKF roller bearings for greatest efficiency and long life. The standard tooling is a combination set for bending machine both leg-out and leg-in, flat bar on flat and on edge, T-bar stem-out and stem-in as well as stem-down, small square bar and even small solid round bar. Normally, no additional spacers are required.
Roll bender machines all come with standard section roll dies on all three shafts. These dies can readily address most square profile applications that an engineer would run into and even round profiles if distortion of the tube or pipe is acceptable. Where no distortion on round tube or pipe applications is acceptable section roller dies for your particular tube and pipe bender size are available. Even though the section roller dies that come standard with the machine can address most square profiles on the market custom section dies are available for square profiles reducing setup time when changing over applications. Custom profiles rolls for extrusions are addressed on a daily basis so forward a sample and a drawing to us so we can offer a feasibility review along with a quote for the custom roll bender rolls.
Standard equipment on all bending machine models are:
• Hydraulically powered rear bending roll adjustment
• Electronic digital readout for rear bending roll position
• Hydraulic drop end
• Hydraulically powered lower pinch roll adjustment, with easily adjustable pinch pressure control with gauge
• Dual rotation controls - console mounted and remote hand control on trailing lead
• Cone bending attachment
• Rolls hardened to 50Rc
• Roller bearings on all roll shafts
• Powered tilting of the rear bending roll for cone rolling
• Simple manual tilt of the lower pinch roll
• Emergency stop cable at front and rear of machine
• Hydraulic oil, tools, and manual
