Manway machine from 4Ming

The Manway machine from 4Ming® represents a significant advance in the forming technology for tank structures. This specialized drawing press enables precise pipe sockets and manways (manways) to be drawn out of longitudinally welded tank shells, similar to collar forming, and offers significant advantages over traditional welding methods.

Efficiency and cost savings:

The machine reduces production times and costs by avoiding complex welding work.

The uniform appearance of the drawn fitting eliminates the need for subsequent cleaning and processing steps.

Precision and repeatability:

The forming process is controlled by a precise hydraulic system that guarantees consistent and repeatable results.

The pulling tool applies controlled pressure to the tank shell to shape the fitting or manway into the desired shape.

Robust construction and flexibility:

The machine consists of a stable frame, a powerful hydraulic system and a versatile pulling tool.

Adaptable to different materials and shapes, it offers flexibility for different applications.

Security and user-friendliness:

Integrated safety mechanisms and user-friendly control panels ensure easy and safe handling.

The clear arrangement of the controls and displays enables intuitive operation.
