These parts reflect the dimensional accuracy, surface finish and technical reliability that distinguish our tube forming and bending services for highly demanding industrial applications.<\/p>\n<h2>What is tube forming?<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>tube forming<\/strong> is an industrial process by which the geometry of a metal tube is modified without altering its structural properties. By means of techniques such as bending, flaring, drawing or upsetting, a part adapted to the requirements of the final design is obtained, maintaining its integrity and mechanical strength.<\/p>\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/curvadodetuboscoes.com\/en\/company-2\/\">CORVATS ESPECIALS SL (COES)<\/a> we have decades of experience in the tube forming and bending industry, offering tailor-made solutions for national and international industries.<\/p>\n<h2>Main metal tube forming processes<\/h2>\n<p>The forming process can be carried out using different techniques, depending on the desired geometry and the material used:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Formed by drawing:<\/strong> ideal for creating controlled diameter reductions or enlargements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Conformed by underlining:<\/strong> is used to increase the density or thickness of the ends, improving their strength.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Formed by flaring:<\/strong> allows to expand the end of the tube to facilitate its union or coupling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Formed by pressing and punching:<\/strong> generates slots or holes while maintaining the integrity of the base material.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All these methods are carried out with state-of-the-art CNC machinery, guaranteeing millimetric tolerances and uniform finishes.<\/p>\n<h2>Industrial applications of tube forming<\/h2>\n<p>Tube forming plays a key role in many industrial sectors:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Automotive: manufacturing of piping, chassis and structural components.<\/li>\n<li>Air conditioning and refrigeration: heat exchangers and ventilation systems.<\/li>\n<li>Industrial machinery: support elements, shafts or precision joints.<\/li>\n<li>Metal construction: lightweight structures and customized support systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thanks to the precision of our processes, at COES we help to optimize costs and improve the reliability of each manufactured component.<\/p>\n<h2>Advantages of tube forming with COES<\/h2>\n<p>Working with <strong>COES<\/strong> means having a technical partner with more than 40 years of experience, state-of-the-art technology and a 100 % customer-oriented % approach.

Both processes are complementary and at COES we integrate them within the same production flow.<\/p>\n<h3>What materials can be formed?<\/h3>\n<p>We work with carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, aluminum and different metal alloys. Each material requires specific pressure, lubrication and temperature, which guarantees a controlled and crack-free deformation.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the range of diameters available?<\/h3>\n<p>In our facilities in Terrassa we have equipment capable of forming tubes from 6 mm to 114 mm outside diameter, adapting to the tolerances and thicknesses required by the customer.<\/p>\n<h3>Do you offer customized parts or only standard series?<\/h3>\n<p>We develop both prototypes and complete series. Our technical team advises from the initial design to optimize the performance of the shaped tube and reduce production times.<\/p>\n<h3>Do you perform quality controls?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, all COES processes include dimensional verifications, leak tests and visual control. Each batch is recorded to ensure full traceability of the final product.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En la imagen se aprecian dos piezas met\u00e1licas obtenidas mediante procesos de conformado de tubos met\u00e1licos desarrollados por CORVATS ESPECIALS SL (COES) en Terrassa, Barcelona.
