Section Bending

Beam and profile bending machines

Horizontal three roll benders that roll I-beam, channel, angle, pipe and tube into arcs and full circles. Skid mounted and driven through geared heads, so the machine works at site as readily as in the shop — tunnel and mine arch supports, curved trusses, tank rings and architectural steel.

The range

Two capacities

Rated by section modulus rather than height, so capacity depends on the profile as well as its size. Send the section and radius and we confirm which machine holds it.

What it makes

Typical work

  • Tunnel and mine arch supports
  • Curved roof trusses
  • Portal frames
  • Tank and silo rings
  • Circular staircases
  • Arches and canopies
  • Ship and boat frames
  • Crane rails
  • Architectural steelwork
  • Pipe coils and bends

Arcs and full circles

Roll a gentle arc in channel, or close a complete ring and correct the roundness in the same operation without a second setup.

Works at site

Skid mounted and self-contained, so it goes to the tunnel mouth or the fabrication yard instead of the section travelling to a shop.

Send the drawing

Section size, radius and arc length. We confirm in writing whether the machine holds it before quoting.

Seen before it ships

You are welcome at Batala to see your machine running before dispatch, with a written inspection and dispatch certificate.

Delivered across India

We arrange transport from Batala to your site, so you are not chasing a transporter yourself.

One year warranty

Covered against technical fault for a full year from delivery, on every machine we supply.

Support that answers

Most questions are settled the same day over a video call with someone who knows the machine.

Freight and site visits are charged at actual. Installation is not included in the machine price and can be arranged on request.

Before you enquire

Section bending questions

What sections can it bend?
Channel, angle, I-beam, T-beam, flat bar, square tube, round tube, pipe and aluminium profile, with the right roll set. Channel rolled to an arc is the most common job on these machines.
Can it make a full 360 degree ring?
Yes. The machine completes circle rolling and roundness correction in one operation, so a closed ring comes off round rather than needing to be pulled true afterwards. For tight radius bends in pipe, where the wall would collapse, a mandrel pipe bender is the right machine instead and we supply those separately.
Why do side guide rolls matter?
Angle and channel are asymmetric, so under load they twist rather than curve. The three axis hydraulic side guides hold the section square through the bend, and they let angle be rolled leg-in or leg-out.
W24S-250 or W24S-300?
The number is the section modulus the machine can bend, not a height in millimetres, so capacity depends on the profile shape as well as its size. A tight radius also needs more machine than a gentle one. Send the section, the radius and the arc and we will confirm.
What is it used for?
Curved roof trusses and portal frames, storage tank and silo rings, circular staircases, ship and boat frames, crane rails, arches and architectural steel.
Can you bend to a drawing?
Yes. Send the section size, the radius and the arc length and we will confirm whether the machine holds it before quoting. Rolls are made to your profile, so a shape that is not standard is not a problem.
