"We purchased our Ercolina Top Bender back in the early 90's and when it came time to upgrade we didn't think twice about buying a new Ercolina Mega Bender. I could never imagine going back to using elbows, with all the welding, grinding and labor involved."

Ercolina Angle Roll Features Bending Speeds 20% Faster than Competitive Machines

CE40 Operator Ercolina’s CE40MR3 angle roll is capable of bending a wide range of tube, pipe and profiles to a CLR as small as four times diameter of the work piece. Capacity to 2″ schedule 40 pipe or 2″ angle iron. Model is designed to operate in vertical or horizontal position and includes foot pedal for hands-free operation. Standard universal tooling set, included with each machine, adjusts easily to most material profiles. Programmable touch pad controls with digital center roll positioning increases repeatability. Threaded drive shafts allow fine adjustment of tooling without spacers and side roller system adjusts as necessary to create helix effect in workpiece. Standard machine features include patented two-speed center roll for rapid center roll positioning, in-line gear reduction in oil bath to provide high power transmission efficiency and forged roll shafts which are precision ground and fitted for maximum performance and minimal deflection. Machines have heavy duty structure and rigid components with high section modulus ratings. An optional Anti-twist correction system is available for angle iron “Leg In” applications.
