2. Tube bending - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_bending

   A form type tapers the end of the mandrel to provide more support in the bend of the tube. When precise bending is needed a ball mandrel (or ball mandrel with steel cable) should be used. The conjoined ball-like disks are inserted into the tubing to allow for bending while maintaining the same diameter throughout.

3. Hydroforming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroforming

   Bending is done sequentially along the length of the tube, with the tube being bent around bending discs (or dies) as the tube length is fed in. Bending can be done with or without mandrels. This additional complexity of process further increases the reliance on FEM for designing and evaluating manufacturing processes.

4. Bending machine (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_machine...

   A bending machine is a forming machine tool (DIN 8586). Its purpose is to assemble a bend on a workpiece. A bend is manufactured by using a bending tool during a linear or rotating move. The detailed classification can be done with the help of the kinematics. [1] Universal bending machine for flat material

5. Mandrel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandrel

   An example of one type of mandrel is a shaped bar of metal inserted in, or next to, an item to be machined or bent in a certain pattern, e.g. in drawing metal tubing. Exhaust pipes for automobiles are frequently bent using a mandrel during manufacture. The mandrel allows the exhaust pipes to be bent into smooth curves without undesirable ...

6. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

   Bending is done by hammering (manual or powered) or via press brakes, tube benders and similar tools. Modern metal fabricators use press brakes to coin or air-bend metal sheet into form. CNC-controlled backgauges use hard stops to position cut parts to place bend lines in specific positions.

7. Flare fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_fitting

   The tool used to flare tubing consists of a die that grips the tube, and either a mandrel or rolling cone is forced into the end of the tube to form the flare by cold working. The most common flare fitting standards in use today are the 45° SAE flare [ 2 ] [ 3 ] ,the 37° JIC flare, and the 37° AN flare.
