The new Automatic Elbow Machine with Turning Head is designed to produce high quality 90° elbows, without the need for hand turning. This eliminates repetitive motion injuries and reduces operator fatigue. The cutting plane of this machine is 15° from the horizontal plane, thus requiring 3 cuts for a 90° elbow. Only one operator is required. This Machine is equipped with a full set of tooling to produce 6", 7", 8" Ø turned elbows; or tooling can be purchased separately if only 1 or 2 sizes are needed. Size changes take only 20-25 minutes to complete.
