When it comes to steel tube bending, there are a lot of different methods that can be used. Compression bending and rotary bending are some of the methods that are used. Compression bending is a straightforward basic type of method. The one downside of this type of bending it is not really intended for small tight radius bends. The reason for this is because the pipe may buckle or break. There are some advantages to this type, such that it tends to be less expensive for the tooling for compression bending.
The rotary draw bending provides more control over the actual bend. Rotary bending uses mandrels and dies inside the tube for the bending process. Also, this allows for a smaller tight bend and the tube itself has a smoother cleaner look to it than the other method. The compression method is more for a circular tube, whereas in the rotary method, you can also bend rectangular or square pipes as well.
