WHAT IS Aluminum Bending Machine?
Aluminum Bending Machines for cold bending aluminum profiles (extrusion).
Aluminum alloy, being lightweight and highly malleable, can form complex shapes to be formed from a single piece, reducing assembly time and costs, and producing a high volume of parts quickly.
The most common aluminum profile bent parts on the market are structural parts. Compared with welding parts, aluminum bent structural parts are not only more beautiful but also have higher strength. The most common applications of aluminum profile bending come in furniture, Building doors and windows, aerospace and automotive industries, industrial equipment, etc.
Aluminum Bending Machines for cold bending aluminum profiles (extrusion), there are two popular bending machines: roll bending and stretch forming (press bending/Fluid Cell Presses is less common). The aluminum bending machine that people usually call is the three-roll aluminum profile roll bending machine because it is the most widely used.

How Stuff Works
The PBA 3-roll aluminum profile bending machine is a 3-roll variable geometry bending machine. By reducing the distance between the bottom rolls, and by acting with the top roll “by pressing” on the initial part of the aluminum profiles, it is possible to minimize the straight part.
The operational principle of the 3-roll variable geometry aluminum bending machine involves all 3 rolls being capable of movement. During the rolling process, the top roll applies pressure to the aluminum profile between the two bottom rolls.
The technological innovations, accuracy, speed, and great bending performance of our PBA aluminum bending machine make it excel in aluminum profile bending applications.
Please note: In the video, the prepainted aluminum extrusion are roll-bent using the PBA profile bending machine without leaving any marks on the surface.
Aluminum bending machines also named: Profile Bending Machine, Aluminium Profile Bending Machine, Aluminium Extrusion Bending Machine, Aluminum Pipe Bending Machine, and Aluminium Bender Machine.
USES OF ALUMINUM BENDING MACHINE
The aluminum bending process, also known as profile rolling or stretch bending, involves using a bending machine to customize and process aluminum extrusion alloy profiles to achieve a specific curvature.
The aluminum profile bending machine uses a simple, flexible, and efficient bending forming technology. It is widely used in various fields such as architectural doors and windows, curtain walls, decoration, automotive industry, aerospace, rail transit, elevators, bathroom fixtures, shipbuilding, tunnels and bridges, and lighting. This technology provides a reliable solution for the bending of various non-standard metal profiles and the production and processing of various aluminum alloy profiles.
PBA Aluminum Bending Machine: Once designed, the workpiece can be reproduced at any time (DXF, STEP Import): A wide range of complex aluminum bends can be achieved, including 3-D, S-shaped, C-shaped, U-shaped, full circle, ellipse and multiple radii.
Top 3 FEATURES OF BEST ALUMINUM BENDING MACHINE
Aluminum extrusion bending processing accuracy has three important features: curvature accuracy, repeatability, and cross-sectional deviation.
Curvature Accuracy
With digital technology, any curvature can be achieved. But the curvature accuracy of bending aluminum profiles is affected by springback.
Now, the focus is now on solving springback to achieve precise and consistent workpiece dimensions.
In mass aluminum bending production, the most important thing is to use the simplest operation to quickly resolve the springback in a very short time.
In the PBA’s unique operating system, solve the springback problem in two steps: input the actual radius to get the coefficient, then input the compensation coefficient and start production.
Note: Springback refers to a material’s ability to return to its original shape after being deformed when it attempts to return to its original shape at a certain angle after being bent.
Repeatability
When scaling up the production of aluminum profile bent parts, thousands of parts of the same design have consistent dimensions from one month to the next.
The default expectation for aluminum bending is production should provide interchangeable parts from batch to batch.
PBA’s aluminum bending machines utilize a combination of motion controllers and servo motors to ensure the precise repeatability of aluminum bending workpieces: Repeat Position Accuracy ≤0.01mm.
Notes: If driven by hydraulic cylinders, repeat positioning speed and accuracy( ≤0.02mm) are easily affected by temperature.
Cross Sectional Deviation
When aluminum profiles are bent, the inner radius undergoes compression while the outer side experiences tension. This forces the metal to ‘flow’ in a specific way under constant yield conditions into certain unconstrained areas, which is what causes cross-sectional deviation.
Crucial to prevent the deformation(cross-sectional deviation) caused by stress, especially when dealing with asymmetrical profiles. In the aluminum profile bending process, custom internal support tools are the best solution for addressing cross-sectional deviation, you need a reliable expert to design these tools.
The perfect aluminum profile bending workpiece should not have deformations or surface defects. ( Distortions, scratches, wrinkles, and cracks: No customer will accept this bad result.)
