Techniswage, tube reshaping and reforming for the aerospace, medical and defence industry

TUBE & POLE MANIPULATION SERVICES

Our team is comprised of individuals with expertise in various industries including forging, casting and pressing. It is this expertise which enables us to specialise in the below tube and pole manipulation services:

tube tapering services, tube reshaping and reforming, tube bending services, swaging

TUBE TAPERING

  • Maximum starting diameter 65mm
  • Maximum wall thickness 2mm
  • Maximum taper length 1200mm
Tube can be formed to a tapered section by rotary swaging method, feeding the start tube, that being the larger diameter into the machine and forming a taper in increments of 330mm. A tapered tube can be produced up to 1200mm long.

tube end expansion services, tube reforming, tube bending, tube reshaping

TUBE END EXPANSION

  • Maximum starting diameter 65mm
  • Maximum wall thickness 2mm
  • Maximum taper length 1200mm
Tube can be expanded by means of end forming, the start size being a maximum of 150mm. Expansion of the tube will result in the wall thickness thinning slightly. Tube end forming includes beading, coning, nozzling, expanding, and sleeving.

tube end flaring, tube reshaping and tube bending, tube shaping, swaging

TUBE END FLARING

  • Maximum finished diameter 152mm
  • Maximum wall thickness 5mm
Tube can be flared out to a larger diameter using either a radiused or a straight plunger. This form can then be reduced to form a bead or machined for weld prepping. Tube end flaring can be carried out on most metals.

Tie Rod Manufacturers, tube reforming and tube reshaping

TUBE END REDUCTION

  • Maximum starting diameter 150mm
  • Maximum length of reduction unlimited
Tube can be reduced to a smaller diameter using either a radiused or a straight plunger. Tube end reduction can be carried out on most metals.

Changing Tube End Profile​, tube reforming, tube bending, tube shaping and reshaping, UK swage

CHANGING TUBE END PROFILE

  • Square to round
  • Round to square
  • Square to hexagonal
Tube can be changed from square to round, round to square or even round to hexagonal in various metals

micro tube end forming, metal reforming, tube reforming and reshaping, tube bending

MICRO TUBE END FORMING

  • Maximum starting diameter 3mm
  • Maximum finishing diameter 0.5mm
End forming can be carried out on tube of 3mm and below, reducing the diameter to a minimum of 0.25mm in various metals. Wire can also be worked on depending on its hardness.

tube centre reduction, metal swaging, metal reforming and tube reshaping

TUBE CENTRE REDUCTION

  • Maximum starting diameter 0.5mm
  • Maximum finishing diameter 4mm
Tube can be reduced to a smaller diameter using either a radiused or a straight plunger. Tube end reduction can be carried out on most metals.
