How To Bend Aluminum Conduit

The bending process of aluminum conduit requires meticulous operation to ensure the integrity and functionality of the pipe. Here are some suggestions on how to bend aluminum conduit:

1、 Preparation work

Determine bending parameters:

Determine the bending radius and angle of the aluminum conduit according to the required design requirements.

Ensure that the selected bending radius does not cause excessive deformation or cracking of the pipe.

Choose the appropriate tool:

When manually bending, you can choose tools such as manual pipe benders or bending frames.

For large-scale or high-precision bending needs, it is recommended to use mechanical bending equipment such as CNC pipe bending machines.

Pipe pretreatment:

Ensure that the surface of the aluminum conduit is flat, free from scratches or damage.

If necessary, the pipe can be preheated to improve its flexibility and reduce stress during bending.

2、 Bending steps

Manual bending:

Place the aluminum conduit into the bending frame or manual pipe bender.

Use manual tools to secure the pipe along the desired bend.

Apply uniform and moderate force on the other end of the pipe to bend it at the desired angle and radius.

During the bending process, it is important to maintain the hand feel and grip strength to avoid deformation or cracking caused by excessive or insufficient force.

Mechanical bending:

Put the aluminum conduit into the CNC pipe bending machine.

Adjust the various parameters on the control panel of the equipment according to the required bending parameters.

Start the device and let the mechanical bending machine bend the pipe to the desired perfect angle according to the preset parameters.

During the bending process, it is necessary to closely monitor the operating status of the equipment and the bending condition of the pipe to ensure the quality of the bending.

3、 Precautions

Maintain uniform force and speed: Whether it is manual bending or mechanical bending, it is necessary to maintain uniform force and speed to avoid uneven shapes or pipe cracking.

Check the bending quality: After the bending is completed, check whether the bent part of the pipe is flat, free of cracks or deformation. If necessary, appropriate adjustments or repairs can be made.

Safety protection: During operation, pay attention to personal safety protection to avoid injuries to hands or other parts.

In summary, the bending process of aluminum conduit requires careful preparation, correct operation, and attention to safety precautions. By selecting and setting bending parameters reasonably, using appropriate tools, and maintaining uniform force and speed, the bending quality and integrity of aluminum conduit can be ensured.
