This 2013 Horn Machine Tools HMT 8.0-LCNC CNC tube bender with BendPro G2 control offers large-diameter rotary draw bending for potential applications in custom tube fabrication, heavy-equipment tubular components, and structural tubular assemblies. Its capacity includes 8-inch OD mild steel tube with a 0.500-inch wall at a 12-inch centerline bend radius, for material with yield strength up to 50,000 PSI. This combination warrants consideration for substantial steel tubular work, subject to part requirements and tooling.

Four controlled axes combine electric servo carriage feed and tube rotation with proportional hydraulic control of the bend arm and pressure die assist. Controlled feed and rotation support positioning for successive bends in different planes. For mandrel tube bending, the hydraulic mandrel extractor provides programmable early withdrawal, while pressure die assist offers servo following and programmable pressure changes to help manage tube deformation with appropriate tooling and setup. The maximum tube length over mandrel is 240 inches, or 20 feet, accommodating long stock, although achievable part geometry depends on bend sequence and machine clearances.
