Fabricating & Metalworking reports that BLM Group will exhibit the PRO-RUNNER 28 at FABTECH 2026. Alongside tube bending, an optional spindle supports drilling after bending, including curved sections; a Collar Drill option produces collared holes. These are supplier-reported integration capabilities, not independently measured productivity results.
Questions to discuss with your supplier
Does the PRO-RUNNER 28's integrated drilling capability eliminate the need for secondary holemaking operations in your production workflow? How does the coil-fed mandrel bending process compare to traditional tube-fed methods regarding setup time and material waste? What specific thin-wall diameter ranges does the magnetically suspended mandrel support effectively?
