Curvassi MTX 32 / MTX 32H Bow Top Fencing Bending Machine
The Curvassi MTX32 is our entry-level mandrel tube bender, capable of fast, accurate 180 degree bending. Available with a manual vice, or a hydraulic vice for increased efficiency. We can supply this with specialist tooling (vice and internal diameter former); allowing you to bend hollow tube or solid round or square bar into a perfect bow top. The machine can roll 3no of 12mm solid bar at a time, at just 4 seconds per bending sequence. Available with either a manual vice, or increase efficiency and ease of use with a fully hydraulic vice to make it easier for the operator with automatic mode.
Tooling options can allow for making bow tops from up to 18mm solid round bar and square, or hollow tubes.
These Bow Top Fencing Bending Machines are ideally suited to production environments, as a 180° bend is performed within just four seconds.

At Selmach, we have been receiving an increasing number of inquiries from customers who are interested in bringing their manufacturing processes in-house. Many of them used to purchase the bow top part of the railing and fabricate the rest of the fencing themselves. However, due to various reasons such as supply chain issues and rising costs, they are now considering taking on the entire process internally. This approach allows businesses to have greater control over the entire production process, leading to cost savings on materials and reduced dependence on third parties.
The process itself is relatively simple: taking tubular steel and bending it at a 180-degree angle repeatedly. However, the question arises: what is the most efficient method to accomplish this?
Introducing the Curvassi MTX32, our entry-level mandrel tube bender designed for fast and accurate 180-degree bending. It is available with a manual vice or a hydraulic vice for enhanced efficiency. With our specialised tooling options (vice and internal diameter former), you can easily bend hollow tubes or solid round or square bars into perfect bow tops. This machine can roll up to 3 pieces of 12mm solid bar at a time, completing each bending sequence in just 4 seconds. You can choose between a manual vice or opt for a fully hydraulic vice, which offers increased efficiency and user-friendliness with its automatic mode.
Our tooling options enable the creation of bow tops using solid round bars and squares up to 18mm in size, as well as hollow tubes.
These Bow Top Fencing Bending Machines are particularly suitable for production environments, as they can perform a 180-degree bend in just four seconds.
With the manual vice, you have the flexibility to open and close it manually. On the other hand, the hydraulic vice allows you to control the entire operation using foot pedal controls.
Our range of tooling options enables you to work with both solid and hollow tubes, facilitating the formation of bow tops.
The cost of this solution ranges from £7,000 to £12,000 + VAT, but it allows you to bring your entire bow top railing manufacturing production in-house. This saves you time, eliminates the need for storing purchased components, and provides more flexibility for your processes.
