Dynamic Flowform has installed its seventh flowform machine.   This new equipment is capable of producing tubes that range from .500″ to 16″ diameter by 30 feet long.    The flowform machine was specifically made to produce small diameter tubes with long lengths.    This new capability opens up new flowform applications in various markets including:  oil/gas, power generation, chemical, petrochemical, food/dairy, biopharmaceutical and defense industry.  Hydraulic tubing and heat exchanger tubing made of Nickel and Titanium alloys can now be economically flowformed with this equipment.
