TCC-45 EF3Cutting and up to three forming strokes.
TCC-45 EF3 combines chipless cutting and end forming in one system. Up to three tool strokes can prepare a profile without moving the part to a separate end former.
Selection, implementation and support in Poland — TARGA.
From workpiece to process
Applications for TCC-45 EF3
For series production of lengths with an expansion, reduction, bead or another tool-defined profile. The cutting and forming sequence is selected for the component length and geometry.
How does the process work?
Input material
Select tube feeding, guiding and clamping.
Cutting and subsequent operation
Select the length programme and cutting method for the tube end and the next operation.
Unloading and inspection
Check length, ovality and end quality; unload according to the configuration.

Configuration
Equipment selected for production
Clamp and punch sets, material feeding and finished part unloading. The possibility of simultaneous cutting and forming depends on component length and line layout.
Manufacturer resources
Brochures describe configurations from the stated edition. We confirm the offered scope for your workpiece.
Watch the equipment in operation
Manufacturer videos may show optional equipment. Playing a video connects to YouTube.
What do we need for selection?
Send the material, diameter, wall thickness, lengths and tolerances, tube supply form and end drawing. Include the required output per shift.
Before you choose
Are three strokes enough for my profile?
This depends on the sequence of material deformation. We analyse the end drawing and select the tools; for a more complex profile, we also compare EF8.
Can production rate be determined from the model name alone?
No. It depends on material, length, required end quality and equipment. We confirm it for the programme, feeding and unloading arrangement.

Cutting and end-forming line
TCC-45 EF8
TCC-45 EF8 combines tube cutting with a cycle of up to eight forming strokes. It allows a more complex end profile to be planned within one line.
Tube end-forming machine
EFO-3e
EFO-3e performs up to three forming strokes in a programmed cycle. Electric servo drives and tools selected from the drawing produce the required tube end profile.
