Abstract

See full text

A tube bending fixture having a plurality of tube bending tools, a pedestal for each tube bending tool, a grid plate for supporting each pedestal, and a grid plate support for supporting the grid plates in a predetermined arrangement. The fixture is built from a simulation program of tool selection, tool location and bending sequence. The simulation program is entered into a computer for viewing to insure that the tools are properly selected and properly located to permit operation in the desired sequence without interference. The computer will output a list of the tools needed and a list of coordinates to establish tool location. The bending tools have clamp rolls which are relatively movable between open and closed positions, and when closed define an arcuate groove. A bending roll is provided for bending a tube around the groove.
