Stretch Forming Machines
Starting point VPE machines for the Stretch Form process include actual and virtual machines that perform either transverse stretching or longitudinal stretching. There are also some actual machines that have both transverse and longitudinal pull capability. The machines with transverse pull capability include both simple and tangential machines.
Actual machines include Cyril-Bath, Erco, Fritz Muller, MFBA, and Sheridan
Virtual machines include machines of the following types:
• Small, medium, and large, simple, transverse stretching machines
• Small, medium, and large, tangential, transverse stretching machines
• Small, medium, and large, tangential, longitudinal stretching machines
