Delahenty Machinery, Australia’s exclusive dealer for MACKMA benders, is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of a MACKMA BM76 pipe bender by Aqua-Tec Engineering. This quality pipe bender is distinguished as the only non-mandrel model capable of both left and right bending, equipped with specialised tooling developed by Delahenty Machinery.

Innovative Capabilities of the MACKMA BM76

Consistent Bending:

The MACKMA BM76 is engineered to handle pipes up to 76 mm in diameter and 4 mm in wall thickness, with bending radii ranging from a minimum of 3xOD to a maximum of 370 mm. This ensures high repeatability and adaptability to even the most challenging project specifications.

Inverter-Controlled Flexibility:

Featuring an inverter-controlled curvature axis, the BM76 offers rotational speeds adjustable between 1.0 and 2.0 revs/min. This functionality, managed via a potentiometer, allows operators to select the optimal speed for each specific bending requirement, enhancing both performance and accuracy.

Sophisticated Design Features:

The pipe bender’s cantilevered head design enables the creation of complex geometries, including those requiring the pipe to pass beneath the head. Additionally, its quick-release return clamp minimises tube marking, while follower slide options and adaptability to various bend dies further strengthen its versatility.

Energy Efficiency and Adaptation:

The BM76 is an all-electric machine with an inverter-controlled motor, designed to reduce power consumption while maintaining high performance. Its special shaft system allows seamless integration with tooling from other manufacturers, broadening its application potential.
