Maximizing output through equipment improvements
Bendco HPB has made significant upgrades to its machines and facilities to better serve customers, allowing for the completion of more orders in a shorter timeframe. The company completed a power upgrade on its largest induction bending machine and increased agility through improvements to its dynamic parts. Additional modifications were made to enhance quality and consistency. Bendco HPB has also improved its draw-bending department with two new machines, significantly increasing both capacity and redundancy. This allows it to perform draw bending on pipe up to 8 inches on common radii, while also streamlining mid-range draw bending operations. The result is increased flexibility and capacity for handling orders, ensuring consistent reliability even during peak demand. These enhancements further support the company's comprehensive bending capabilities, ranging from 0.5-inch to 36-inch pipe.
