If you’re in the business of making furniture, automotive seat frames, crowd barriers and temporary fencing or anything that involves mirror-image tube parts, then you’ll know just how much time can be lost flipping, repositioning, and adjusting to get both ends right.
That’s where a Twinhead tube bending machine comes into its own.
We’ve seen a real shift in recent years toward manufacturers looking to simplify these kinds of jobs – and that’s exactly what our Unison Twinhead was built for.
It bends both ends of a tube at the same time, giving you fast, repeatable, perfectly symmetrical results with very little handling in between.
It’s particularly popular in the furniture world, where clean lines, consistent bends and tight turnarounds are the norm.
Think chairs, tables, frames – anything that’s being made in volume and needs to look spot on, every time.
Apart from the obvious time savings, a Twinhead really shines when you need:
Perfect symmetry – no more bending one side, flipping the part and trying to match it.
Higher throughput – ideal for batch runs or fixed-radius production.
Consistency – less handling means fewer variables and better accuracy across the batch.
Operator simplicity – easy to train on and quick to set up.
And for anyone working with standardised components, the time savings soon add up.
One of our customers in the contract furniture world halved their bending time overnight after switching to a Twinhead.
Not necessarily. If your parts are varied and asymmetrical, you might be better off with a more flexible setup.
But if you’re producing lots of similar, mirrored bends – especially in steel or aluminium tubing up to 50 mm – then it’s worth a serious look.
We’ve got machines in stock and available for demo.
