TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Bulk Materials Handling - chutes
Mine Ventilation/Access
Fluids Conveying - transitions and transformers.
`Industrial strength’ structures, thick plate.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
BEND provides a multi-gored bend between two ducts.
Ducts may have different shaped cross-sections.
Shapes are `rectircles’, i.e. round cornered rectangles.
Rectircle describes rectangular, circular, & obround shapes.
From 2 to 10 gores permitted.
Bend angle from 1 degree to 180 degrees.
Collars optional, integral when possible (prismatic bend)
Gores Standard (Half Angle Ends) & Eschenburg (Equal Angle
Gores) Setouts
Bend radius on inside, outside or centreline of bend.
Up to 8 longitudinal seams per gore.
Uses Triangulation development method as standard.
Also `AutoNest’ & radial line development when possible.

DATA REQUIREMENTS
Inlet and Outlet shape dimensions
