The world’s manufacturing sector continues to evolve, and with that comes new challenges for equipment buyers and production managers.
From rising raw material prices to growing pressure around energy use, labour efficiency, and reshoring, many fabricators, job shops, and OEMs are rethinking how they invest in machinery.
In a climate like this, every decision needs to deliver real value – and long-term reliability.
If you’re weighing up your options, now might be the right time to look beyond traditional hydraulic systems.
Hydraulic tube benders have served manufacturers well for decades. But they come with ongoing costs – particularly around maintenance, energy use, and performance variability caused by changes in oil temperature and viscosity.
By contrast, all-electric tube benders, like the Unison Breeze, are built for right-first-time precision, repeatability, and ease of use.
Servo-driven control removes the need for hydraulic oil altogether, delivering smooth, consistent bends without manual intervention or setup guesswork.
They also consume up to 90% less energy, are quieter, and require less routine maintenance – making them a great fit for forward-thinking manufacturers focused on reshoring, sustainability, and process reliability.
And thanks to features like our five-minute tool change, they’re built for shops that value flexibility and fast turnaround.
It’s worth noting – Unison invented the world’s first all-electric tube bending machine back in 1994, and we’ve been refining and improving that technology ever since.
In 2023, Unison Ltd celebrated 50 years in business. While we’re proud of our heritage, we’re just as focused on what’s next.
That includes:
If you’re planning to upgrade or invest in new equipment, material costs and production efficiency are key considerations. Machines that offer consistent performance, low running costs, and energy savings are well worth a closer look.
That’s especially true if you’re working in:
These are exactly the environments where Unison’s all-electric machines continue to deliver.
If you’re looking for a high-spec tube bending machine with global support, short lead times, and none of the headaches around imports or third-party servicing – it might be time to take a closer look at Unison.
We’ve helped customers worldwide move from hydraulic to all-electric systems – and we’d be happy to talk through how it could work for you.
