The electric pipe benders M116 to GME 600 at a glance
On the M116 to GME 600, an electric motor drives the hydraulic pump, so bends from 3/8″ up to 6″ are made without pumping by hand. The bending unit matches the hand-pump model of the same size: according to the spare parts list, cylinder, piston, plates and side pins are identical – the M60, for example, uses the parts of the N. 30 and the GME 400 those of the GM 400.
The M116 and the M60 are also available as B versions for 230 V single-phase current, while all other models run on 400 V three-phase current. For series work, the M60 can be fitted with an automatic limit switch device with motor protection. For high-pressure pipes, please send us an enquiry with the pipe specification.
