Model D-20 Bending Machine
The Model D-20 shares the same platform as the Model D-15. It has heavier gears, bearings and a 20 HP geardrive. While this bending machine is rated for bending 5 inch IPS it is more frequently used for bending 4 inch schedule 80 IPS high tensile steel and heavy walled boiler tube. These machines have been popular with the United States Navy for many years.
Like our smaller benders this machine is supplied with a three phase motor with an electric brake. The brake insures accurate bend angles and repositioning at the end of a bending cycle.
