Production Line for Bending and Welding Tubes

aluminium tube forming machine gantry servo system aluminium tube forming machine servo motors and actuators

Production line featuring a machine that forms aluminium plates into tubes, which are later placed into a water boiler during the production process.

A pick-and-place module from IAI picks up a plate and places it into the machine, where the plate enters the processing stage.

Several HSB gantries, driven by Stöber servo systems, transport the aluminium tube through the machine. At the different workstations, the tube is clamped using an Exlar actuator. For the welding process, the welding torch is mounted on a highly robust linear module from HSB and Stöber.

Because multiple axes move simultaneously within overlapping working areas, these movements must be controlled with extremely high precision.

For this reason, all axes are synchronized and communicate with each other through a central motion controller from Trio Motion Technology. High accuracy is therefore essential within this machine.

  • Quick response, short lines
  • Renowned manufacturers
  • Profound product knowledge
  • High reliability

We supply slewing ring bearings, oscillating mountings, tensioner devices from stock and we also have spiral bevel gearboxes, servo gears and electromechanical actuators in our delivery program.


In addition we also select and offer the right components and systems for motion control solutions, such as servo gear motors, linear servo actuators and complete XYZ cartesian systems.
