Tube machinery
Company Overview
AMOB Group, established in 1960 by the visionary António Martins Oliveira Barros, is a distinguished Portuguese company recognized for its excellence in metalworking equipment. Over the decades, AMOB has progressively evolved into a world leader in specialized tube and sheet metal forming technologies, exporting its advanced solutions to over 100 countries. The company's foundation rests upon an unwavering commitment to innovation, superior quality, and fostering robust, trust-based customer relationships.
Products and Advanced Solutions
AMOB offers a comprehensive portfolio of state-of-the-art machinery designed for precision metal forming. Their core product lines include the Fully Electric CNC Tube Bending Machines (eMOB series and eMOB 2 Bend series), which are capable of processing tubes with outside diameters ranging from 5mm to 225mm. These machines boast multi-stack tooling, left/right bending in cycle, automatic spring-back compensation, 3D simulation with anti-collision technology, and options for welding detection and integrated loading/unloading systems. The Hydraulic Tube Bending Machines (CH series) are engineered for robust applications, handling tubes from 4mm up to 420mm OD, suitable for high-strength, thick, or thin-walled materials across various industries. Additionally, AMOB manufactures Fully Electric, Hydraulic, and Manual Section Benders, alongside highly customizable Roll Forming Lines (PF Series). These roll formers can process sheet metal with thicknesses from 0.5mm to 5mm and widths up to 1500mm, accommodating diverse materials such as aluminum, iron, lacquered, and galvanized sheets, and can integrate punching, forming, and cutting systems.
Operational Excellence and Market Impact
A key differentiator for AMOB is its entirely vertical integration, ensuring that every stage from machine design and conception to manufacturing and assembly is meticulously handled in-house within its expansive 40,000 m² production facilities. This operational model guarantees optimal quality control and swift responsiveness to specific client requirements. Recent investments, such as the Okuma MCR-A5CII high-precision gantry machining center, further solidify AMOB's capability to produce large and complex components with exceptional accuracy. The company's technological solutions are widely applied across critical industrial sectors including automotive, aeronautical, energy, agricultural, construction, structural manufacturing, furniture, pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine/offshore. Enhancing its hardware, AMOB's proprietary 3D Software provides an intuitive interface for direct programming, 3D file import, automatic spring-back compensation, and anti-collision simulation, enabling customers to optimize production processes, reduce waste, and achieve superior results globally.
