OREANDA-NEWS. Trubodetal Plant (Trubodetal Open Joint Stock Company, based in Chelyabinsk, part of United Metallurgical Company, OMK CJSC) has launched a special numerical control machine for processing knuckle bends that have a diameter of 325 mm to 630 mm, and walls up to 36 mm thick.

The new equipment will significantly reduce the production period as it uses advanced software for creating complicated bevels at the time of chamfer processing. Before the NC machine arrived, bends with a diameter in the 530 mm to 630 mm range were processed in another workshop. Now, the entire production process takes place on the same site, thereby considerably speeding up order fulfillment (as no time is wasted on internal relocations).

The machine is fully ready to process bends of all diameters.

“In a competitive environment, our company uses all possibilities for reducing the production period for our clients, among which are many of the country's strategic enterprises,” said Igor Voronin, Trubodetal's Managing Director. “Quality and speed are the main criteria we focus on when dealing with our clients.”
