Multiport Tube Folding Machine
Folded multiport tubes made of several strips
Folded multiport tubes, constructed from multiple strips, are gaining traction in heat exchanger innovation. They surpass extruded profiles with enhanced corrosion resistance and expanded product design options, boasting improved strength data. By employing just two strips, varying material thicknesses can be achieved for tube webs and outer walls, unlocking a broad range of geometries previously unavailable with traditional profiles.
Highlights of the tube folding machines
The tube folding machines are revolutionary for 24/7 production of folded multiport tubes. They embody BCT’s signature features like compact design, modular construction, tool change efficiency, and an intuitive HMI interface. These machines handle key aspects in the production of 2- or 3-piece multiport tubes, including integrated degreasing, fluxing, distortion-free high-speed cutting, and automated packaging.
