The Model AHBQ-4 processes two(2)hairpins per cycle, while the Model AHBV-4 six(6) hairpins per cycle. In addition, all three models are available in a combination Hairpin Bender - Straight & Cut-to-Length Line version, which allows production of either hairpins or straight tube lengths from the same machine. The production application of the TRIDAN Model AHBM-4 is to produce hairpin bends from level-wound coiled tubing of copper or aluminum. It is a fully integrated system consisting of a Tube Straightening, Sizing, and Lubrication Section, adjustable-length Tube Feeding Section, a chipless Tube Cutoff Section, and Hairpin Bender Section. Supporting equipment include a Tube Decoiling System. The Control System is designed in such a manner that all operations are sequenced fully automatically or may be individually placed.
