Overview


The pipe bending machine SPB 36-48 is one of the best-selling and more frequently tested machines of the SUPERIOR fleet. The design of the new SPB 36-48 "Millennium Series" has been further upgraded so that this machine can keep up and be in line with the machines belonging to the SUPERIOR fleet. Thanks to its frame and the load-bearing structures that are sized to bear the highest pushes, the new SPB 36-48 also bends the most recent and robust pipes like the x-80 and x-100 pipes.

Tracks


Caterpillar-type crawler undercarriages with triple grouser bars on industrial-grade shoes. A hydraulic cylinder controls the tensioning of the tracks.
