Latest Tube Bending Technology

We welcome the latest addition to our tube bending equipment lineup, the Unison Breeze.

The machine, a 100 mm (4”) single-stack model, was showcased at FABTECH '23 in Chicago and is now being set for installation at our Wisconsin-based manufacturing plant. It will be the ninth Unison Breeze tube bender purchased and will add capacity for our full range of tube bending which is 0.50” OD up to 6” OD.

“This latest Unison Breeze tube bending machine will help to support our ability to offer short lead times and consistent results – attributes that are essential to our customers,” says Paul Krickeberg, President & CEO of Sharpe Products. “We’ve worked with Unison for numerous years and look forward to installing this next gen machine at our plant.”

This new machine technology offers rapid setup, fast tooling changes, exceptional power and all-electric control for precision, repeat sub-contract work.

UK-based Unison Ltd is a pioneer in ultra-precise, all-electric tube and pipe bending, and the Breeze 100 mm (4” maximum tube diameter) machine is one of its flagship models. Just like all Unison Breeze tube bending machines, the 100 mm (4”) Breeze offers rapid setup, fast tooling changes, exceptional power, rigid mechanical design, and all-electric control for precision, repeat sub-contract work, or immediately after producing a single trial part. These attributes are ideal for frequently changing, small- to medium-batch production runs.

Other single-stack Unison Breeze machines at our company include the 80 mm (3”) and 100 mm (4”) variants, along with the 76 mm (3”), 80 mm (3”) and 130 mm (5”) multi-stack Breeze machines – each able to accommodate several tools for rapid changeover between bending cycles.
