Segment bending follows the same process as thorn bending, without however the use of the thorn or dome. This causes a much more intensive deformation of the tube’s cross section, as smaller bend radii are used.

Segment bending is gradually being phased out by thorn bending, as mechanical impact can never compete in terms of high productivity, repetitive accuracy or precision. But segment bending still has an important role to play as a process (particularly in view of its much lower tooling cost/segment bend cost).

Segment Bending Data Sheets

We will bend your specific components according to your specifications. To simplify determining the values for the machine settings, please measure and sketch your components clearly taking note of the given bend radii and tooling list.

You can select from the following:

Isometric dimensions	Outside dimensions
Inside dimensions	Curvature dimensions
