Unison Breeze left-hand/right-hand all-electric tube bending machine.
Unison Synergy hybrid-electric, dual-stack tube bending machine.
Occupying 2,000 sq. ft. of exhibition space at FABTECH 2025, Unison Tube LLC will present a number of innovative tube bending machines and technologies.
Visitors to booth D42137 will see the capabilities of one of Unison's 35 mm (maximum tube diameter) bi-directional left-hand/right-hand all-electric Breeze tube bending machines. A Unison EvBend 1000 manually operated, CNC-controlled tube bending machine will also be on display, as well as one of the company's hybrid-electric, dual-stack Synergy 50 mm tube bending machines, along with a rotary head wire and tube bending machine from Unison's sister company, Pneuform Machines Ltd. Advances in tube simulation will also be showcased in the form of Unison's Opt2Sim Scan tube scanning software, which will be teamed with a Creaform handheld 3D scanner.
The Unison Breeze 35 mm bi-directional left-hand/right-hand all-electric tube and pipe bending machine that will be on show at FABTECH is just one of the solutions Unison offers for organizations producing parts of complex geometry that need to be bent in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Depending on requirement, customers can choose from "pinball" or "rise & fall pressure die" left/right options. Simplifying the bending process, these all-electric machines are used in a variety of sectors where the production of challenging tubular shapes-often in difficult-to-bend metals, such as Inconel and Super Duplex stainless steels-is required.
Unison Synergy hybrid-electric, dual-stack tube bending machines combine precise electric control with advanced, near-silent hydraulic operation.
"Since launch, our Synergy models have proved highly popular with manufacturers and subcontractors who carry out repetitive tube bending tasks," said Stuart Singleton, VP of Unison. "As well as the 50 mm model that will be on show at FABTECH, there is also a larger 80 mm machine. Both have our user-friendly Unibend control and feature industry leading motors and drives. They offer exceptional power and rigid mechanical design."
Designed for low volume, high-accuracy production and prototyping, Unison EvBend models are used widely across the aerospace, MRO, Formula 1 and oil & gas industries where they provide CNC-controlled, manually operated 3-axis mandrel multiplane bending. While the EvBend 1000 has been designed for bending tube of up to 16 mm in diameter (22 mm in copper), a larger machine, the EvBend 2000, is also available. Built to bend tube of up to 50 mm in diameter, its bending function is servo-assisted.
Visitors to booth D42137 will also be able to learn more about the wire and small-diameter tube and bar bending machines available from Pneuform Machines Ltd. Unison acquired Pneuform in the fall of 2023 and has just introduced a number of enhancements across the entire Pneuform range. Over recent months, Unison's automation and software development teams have been busy adapting its Unibend control and Opt2Sim simulation software to create Unibend-Wire, an integrated CNC and 3D simulation system especially for Pneuform machines and with a key focus on ease of use, production uplift and low cost of ownership.
Unison's Opt2Sim Scan system combines rapid scanning of tube geometry with easy extraction of tube data. Teamed with a Creaform handheld 3D scanner to measure the tube or component they wish to replicate or measure, operators need only enter its bending data into Opt2Sim Scan and then compare measured tube dimensions to master file data and send any corrections directly to the bending machine.
