Innovative tube forming technology: Martin RAM e-drive machines

Our RAM e-drive machines redefine efficiency in tube forming. By using state-of-the-art spindle-less servo linear drives, we not only work with outstanding precision, but also faster and more sustainably than conventional systems. Each series has been specifically developed to meet the requirements of different industries.

Maximum performance for every application

• eco power line: This series is our powerhouse for the most demanding tasks. With a robust C-frame press frame and a forming force of up to 400 kN, these machines effortlessly process tubes with a diameter of up to 150 mm. A 4- or 5-station tool changer provides the necessary flexibility. Perfectly suited for shipbuilding, the exhaust system industry, the energy sector, or plant engineering, where maximum stability and high performance are essential.
• eco performance line: When precision and versatility are the focus, this series is the ideal solution. Specially developed for tubes with diameters from 6 to 70 mm, the 8-fold tool changer enables quick changes between different processing steps. With forming forces of up to 120 kN, this line is ideal for industries such as medical technology, supply engineering (building services and sanitation), the automotive sector, or mechanical engineering, where detailed, complex forming is required.

Common advantages that will revolutionize your production

Regardless of which series you choose, you will benefit from the groundbreaking advantages of our e-drive technology:

• Enormous increase in efficiency: Save up to 70% energy and reduce your process times by up to 50%. Our ultra-fast cycle times make your production significantly more economical.
• Ultimate precision: Precise force and position control with an accuracy of 0.01 mm guarantees error-free production and the highest quality for your end products.
• Sustainability and durability: Thanks to frictionless drives, we reduce wear and tear to a minimum. Our machines are low-maintenance, clean, and particularly environmentally friendly. With long maintenance intervals of up to 36 months or 20,000 operating hours, we guarantee maximum availability.

Versatile forming and wide range of applications

Our machines master a wide range of forming techniques, including:

• Expanding, drawing, and calibrating
• Rolling, crimping, and beading
• Punching, trimming, and embossing
• External and internal gear cutting on tubes and external gear cutting on shafts

The ability to perform multiple operations simultaneously (e.g., rolling pipe ends in conjunction with punching, flattening, kneading, or hammering) further increases your efficiency.

The areas of application for our RAM e-drive machines are as diverse as the forming techniques themselves and include:

• Automotive industry: road, non-road, and agriculture
• Supply technology: building services and sanitation
• Hydraulics/pneumatics
• Mechanical engineering
• Aerospace
• Shipbuilding/rail vehicles
• Medical technology
• Plant engineering
• Energy industry/hydrogen technology
