TRUMPF + Transfluid: Smarter Tube Forming Automation
When it comes to tube fabrication, automation doesn’t stop at the machine. It’s what happens between the machines that makes a truly efficient system.
That’s where the TRUMPF and Transfluid partnership comes together for seamless integration to tube forming processes. As TRUMPF’s automation partner for intermediate steps, such as bending, forming, and positioning, Transfluid adds the missing link between machines. And through Maintecx, you get the full picture: expert guidance, implementation, and ongoing support from a single source.
This partnership creates an end-to-end tube production solution that combines:
TRUMPF’s advanced laser tube cutting systems, known for precision and productivity
Transfluid’s flexible forming and bending automation, designed to handle material transport, staging, and setup between processes
Together, they deliver a smarter, more connected workflow, from the first bend to the final cut.
What the TRUMPF–Transfluid Partnership Offers
How Transfluid Automates Between Processes
While TRUMPF handles the cutting, Transfluid’s specialty is what happens before and after. Their automation systems can:
Move and align tubes between bending, forming, and cutting machines
Handle part identification, staging, and sorting
Integrate robotics, conveyors, and material-handling equipment into a unified cell
Connect seamlessly with TRUMPF systems to reduce manual intervention and improve throughput
Whether you’re running small batches or high-volume production, this integrated approach improves cycle time, accuracy, and repeatability across your shop floor.
A Smarter Workflow, Built for Production
By automating the “in-between” steps in tube processing, the TRUMPF + Transfluid setup gives fabricators:
Faster transitions between forming and cutting
Lower labor costs and fewer errors
Better part traceability and quality assurance
A future-proof system that’s ready to scale
Industries That Benefit
This solution is ideal for any manufacturer that relies on high-precision tubing components, including:
Automotive
Aerospace
HVAC and mechanical systems
Furniture and metal fabrication
Agriculture and construction equipment
