Problems solved by technology

However, this mold design method is mainly aimed at pure titanium tubes, and the working temperature is 200-300°C, so it is difficult to carry out CNC heating and bending of titanium alloy tubes that are difficult to form at higher temperatures
At the same time, due to the "heat sinking" effect of the bending die and the heat transfer of the mandrel to the core ball, the temperature at the front end of the mandrel is low, which makes the difference between the temperature distribution in the bending area of ​​the pipe and the reasonable temperature distribution of hot bending, which is not conducive to improving the quality of the titanium tube. Bending forming quality / forming limit
