Advanced Tube Bending Application App

Unison Ltd, manufacturer of tube and pipe bending machines, has launched an all-new version of its, free-to-use Tube Bending Application app.

The app makes it straightforward for tube bending machinery operators to establish the required tooling type, mandrel style, size and material, as well as bend torque and machine size. As an additional benefit, a clear, simple indication of "application difficulty" (the difficulty of bending virtually any metal, wall thickness and diameter) is also provided. Where customers are looking to bend new components or start new projects, but do not have the correct tooling or machinery, the app provides a feasibility/viability check detailing essential data regarding the equipment they will need to use.

In creating the new Tube Bending Application app, Unison's in-house software design team introduced a range of user-friendly, intelligent new features. These include a project-specific filing system and a dashboard for instant access to tube data, project notes, tooling set-up, mandrel set-up and machine power. There is an updated conversion tool for transforming XYZ coordinates into YBC bending data. As in previous versions of the app, units of measurement can be displayed as either metric or imperial, while reports can be downloaded in PDF format for desktop filing, sharing, review and consideration.

"Since it was first launched some 10 years ago, our free Tube Bending Application app has revolutionized the way customers calculate bending criteria, providing them with a rapid insight into the necessary tooling set-up, machine type and torque required to successfully complete even the most complex of bends," said Alan Pickering, Unison Ltd's Joint Managing Director. "In our latest app, we have made significant improvements to usability and navigation, as well as enabling users to organize files into a folder structure that can be accessed across all their devices. We will soon also be linking the data created by the app to our comprehensive bend tool quoting and manufacturing offer. This will provide users with a seamless, rapid means of costing and ordering any tooling they require."
