MACHINE AND METHOD OF BENDING A LONGITUDINAL CYLINDRICAL PIPE
Machine for bending at least one longitudinal cylindrical pipe, the bending machine having at least one heating module configured so as to heat a longitudinal cylindrical pipe and at least one deformation module configured so as to deform a longitudinal portion of a longitudinal cylindrical pipe in order to bend it, said heating module having a plurality of heating units, each heating unit can include a peripheral heating body defining an internal opening adapted to allow the passage of a longitudinal portion of a longitudinal cylindrical pipe to be heated.
ROLL BENDING APPARATUS
A roll bending apparatus includes: a roll pair formed by a pair of rolls disposed facing each other, the roll pair being configured to sandwich an elongated material between the rolls to perform forming on the elongated material; a slide mechanism configured to slide the roll pair in a first normal direction that is a direction normal to a conveying direction of the elongated material on a plane including the conveying direction; and a tilt mechanism configured to rotate the roll pair about a tilt axis that extends in a second normal direction that is a direction orthogonal to the conveying direction and the first normal direction. The slide mechanism further slides the roll pair to change a position of the roll pair relative to the tilt axis.

Bending machine and process
The invention relates to a bending machine (M) for bending a workpiece (300), remarkable in that a clamping jaw (511) is supported by a clamping jaw holder (510) receiving at least two clamping jaws (511, 512) arranged back to back, the clamping jaw holder (510) being fastened to a shelf (513) guided and driven in translation on the bending arm (500), the support shelves (600) punctually receiving the clamping jaw holder (510) separated from the shelf (513) and to move it on either side of the bending axis transversely to the advance axis of the workpiece (300) to be bent, independently of the bending arm (500) so that the clamping jaw holder (510) can be fastened again to the shelf (513) once the bending arm (500) has been rotated 180 degrees. The invention also relates to a bending process.

Method for Controlling a Bending Process for Bending a Bending Body
A bending process is controlled for bending a bending body, such as a bending profile. A bending device has a bending unit provided with at least one bending element that executes a defined movement based on a control signal. A data processing process is carried out in which a target geometry of the bent bending body is described in the form of target bending information by comparing at least two coordinate systems. A bending process is carried out, wherein before and/or during the bending process, the control signal controlling the at least one bending element is used on the basis of the target bending information to bend the bending body using the at least one bending element.
CONDUIT BENDER
A powered conduit bending tool is configured to bend conduit. The tool comprises a housing, a motor contained within the housing, and a battery removably coupled to the housing to provide power to the motor. An output shaft extends from the housing and is driven by the motor to rotate about an axis. A head is coupled to the output shaft for rotation therewith. The head includes a curved channel for receiving the conduit. A guide is coupled to the housing and supported opposite the curved channel of the head. The guide includes a latching handle movable between a closed position and an open position. The motor drives the head to rotate relative to the housing so that the curved channel and the guide cooperate to bend the pipe.
