New for
2005, the Soco RC50NC NC tube bending machine capable of
putting 8 bends into a 2" (50.8mm) diameter component
with a high bending accuracy (±0.1 degree) and an
NC control unit with touch screen. Suitable for steel, stainless
steel,
aluminium, and copper tube bending.
Tube
bending and tube manipulation constitutes one of the
largest components of our workload, primarily for the
production
of access
platform cherry pickers & baskets. The Soco RC50NC
offers exceptionally high quality tube bending and
also allows
us to offer
this as a sub-contract service.
Below
are several example of the kinds of tube bending work
we undertake.
Access
Platforms
The majority of
our work involves the fabrication of cherry picking baskets for the Milton
Keynes based company Niftylift who
make self propelled, trailer, vehicle and track mounted special purpose vehicles.
We
manufacture over 40 baskets like this a week
using over 20 different drawing specifications
associated with different model vehicles.
