Coils for Heat Exchanger Manufacturers

Tube End Forming is the process that can be done to change the shape and function of a tube. A large range of industries, such as automotive manufacturing, industrial manufacturing, and medicine, use tube bending and end-forming machinery.  At Tridan International, we manufacture the machines used by heat exchanger manufacturers to make coils for heat exchangers. 

Coil Expansion Machines

The specific coil configurations required in heat exchanger manufacturing are directly tied to the machinery used. Successfully forming these coils depends on correctly matching the end bends and other configurations to the appropriate equipment.

Tridan International offers a comprehensive range of machinery, each designed for a specific function. Our product line includes end forms, tube straighteners, tube end formers, coil expanders, and saw cutoffs, among other specialized solutions.

The tube end-forming process is highly specialized and varies based on the industry and intended application. Different techniques are available for tube forming and coiling. Typically, tube end-forming processes are employed to create connections with other tubes or hoses.

Types of Tube End Forming

Manufacturers utilize several distinct methods for tube end forming, each serving a specific purpose in production. Expanding increases the tube’s diameter by inserting segmented fingers and a tapered mandrel. Conversely, reduction decreases the tube size through the use of segmented tooling. Ram forming employs a powerful ram and vise action to achieve both plug expansion and ring reduction. Finally, rotary spinning creates open-end flares using a rotating flare head driven by a hydraulic ram.

Precise tube end forming and straightening are critical for creating efficient, smooth-running HVAC systems. Tridan International offers sophisticated machinery capable of handling complex production tasks, including fin production and hairpin bending. Our extensive catalog of reliable equipment ensures you have the right tools for the job.
