SureBend Manages All the Pipe Angles
Pipetech has introduced its latest tool to maintain accurate bending operations for oil and gas pipeline projects.
The company’s SureBend angle measurement system is a wireless, digital device that can save time and money on bending projects. The system attaches to the pipe and provides an accurate, continuous readout of the achieved bend angle during bending operations.
The SureBend system reduces the risk of injury by eliminating climbing on the pipe, as the bending operator monitors each pull of the pipe without leaving his station. The system consists of two magnetic measurement units that attach to the pipe and hold tightly regardless of weather conditions. It also has a master receiver with an easy-to-read digital display.
The magnetic measurement units are placed on the pipe facing each other and emit a radio frequency to the receiver. It is accurate to 1/10 of a degree. Multiple units can be used in the same area without interference. The magnetic mounts allow fast and effortless setup on all pipe sizes. It also eliminates the need for lengthy protractor measurements.
In addition to saving time and reducing the risk of injury, the SureBend system increases bend productivity. Pipetech is dedicated to providing excellent customer service along with a full line of equipment for rental, sales and service. For more information, visit www.pipetech.net.
