Freeform Tube Bending

Bend the rules: shaping greater flexibility and creativity

How we can help you

  • Greater creative freedom and flexibility in product development and fabrication
  • Achieve custom, complex, non-linear and organic shapes, bends on bends and curve generation
  • No need for traditional fixed tooling eg. bending dies or moulds to achieve specific angles and radii
  • Design anything in freeform 3D with no tube deformation
