Preston General Engineering continue to invest in advanced tube bending technology

Posted on September 19, 2023 | by Delahenty Machinery

Taking a further step to develop a state-of-the-art manufacturing operation, Preston General Engineering (PGE), have invested in an advanced all electric tube bending machine, the YLM CNC90 multi-stack.

PGE a division of ABCOR Pty Ltd, is the industry leader in the fabrication and assembly of metal, aluminium and stainless steel parts. PGE has a proven track record of performance to deliver cost effective and on time solutions. The new YLM CNC90 all electric bender combines the energy savings and quite operation of electric servo control with advanced design features and software to provide the package PGE was looking for.

Adapting to the customer’s needs.

Delahenty Machinery who manufacture tube bending tooling at their factory in Knoxfield Victoria was able to add value by repurposing PGEs tooling from existing machines and adapt to suit the new all electric tube bender.

The YLM CNC90 is equipped with a powerful functioning CNC controller. The controller employs a windows operation system in combination with the use of Ying Han self-developed CNC control software. Outstanding features include easy generation of bending parameters, 3D workpiece simulation function and single step operational simulation function, etc. These provide users with safe, easy, and humanised control features.

YLM CNC-90 all electric multi stack tube bender

The low-profile bend head design uniquely offset from centre of machine frame provides clearance for complicated parts that cannot be obtained on other brands of equipment.

An integrated gearbox reducer with multi layer drive chain assembly provides for a smooth controlled operational start / stop movement of the bend arm extending the chain life many years beyond traditional hydraulic benders.

In addition, the all electric machine with its low decibel level production reduces operator fatigue and general improvement of shop conditions.

Manta Performance improving precision and performance

Posted on January 18, 2023 | by Delahenty Machinery

Delahenty Machinery recently facilitated the purchase, delivery and install of another new YLM YING HAN CNC-65 hydraulic tube bending machine.

MANTA PERFORMANCE [MPI Automotive], Australia’s premier manufacturer of performance exhausts, have added this CNC-65 multi stack machine to complement their existing range of YLM bending machines and reduce cycle time and interference for optimum production.

Precision and performance are MANTA’s highest priorities and with this new YLM tube bending machine from Taiwan are commitment to getting the best sounding and fitting performance exhaust packages available. To maintain this dedication, hours of product development and rigorous testing is undergone to keep MANTA recognised as the market leaders.

The new YLM bending machine had been designed for small tubing with multiple electric axis and for bending the most complex shapes and parts. It offers the hydraulic valves and integrated circuits to control bending motion individually, which will extend the service life of the hydraulic parts.

The CNC-65 bender is equipped with a manually adjusted digital flow regulation valve to control the speed of bending motion. The Servo drive provides high accuracy in bending positioning, that ensures high quality bending.

The new bender also incorporates an auto-cropping mechanism, reducing the need for manual cutting and trimming of pipe. The low-profile bend head design uniquely offset from centre of machine frame provides clearance for complicated parts that cannot be obtained on other brands of equipment.

High productivity YLM bending machine for Tuff Australia

Posted on December 9, 2022 | by Delahenty Machinery

Delahenty Machinery recently facilitated the purchase, delivery and install of another new YLM YING HAN CNC-101 all electric tube bending machine.

TUFF AUSTRALIA is a leading distributor and manufacturer of vehicle frontal protection systems, ute trays and canopies and is a nationally recognised, well-respected brand in the aftermarket accessory industry. Tuff have been protecting Australians and their vehicles on the road for over 20 years.

What did the TUFF team have to say?

During the install in Toowoomba Queensland, Anthony Lucus the Delahenty Machinery Technician and the TUFF team noted that a task that previously took seven minutes took only one and half minutes with the powerful CNC101 all electric bender. “The TUFF team were wrapped with the performance of their new machine” explains Anthony.

“The TUFF team were also blown away with how quiet the YLM tube bender is and the efficiency of the tool change system. TUFF are experiencing over 40% more productivity thanks to the self-adjusting auto clamp and follower torque setting functionality. The simple single check test feature at the push of a button is certainly a favorite amongst the TUFF team”.
