Arrow uses state-of-the-art machinery and technology for automating critical processes such as cutting, bending and preparing tube-shaped elements. The tube production cycle includes bending the various parts which are then trimmed, cut and dispatched to the welding system. Absolute accuracy is a common denominator and this makes Arrow a convincing test bench for BLM GROUP tube benders and Lasertube systems.
The E-TURN guarantees maximum accuracy on thin materials (typically only 1 mm thick) and bend geometries. Laser technology, instead, allows them to be flexible, make smaller batches and respond to competition with top-notch quality products. The most recent installation is an LT-FREE five-axis laser cutting system for processing tubes and sheets that is particularly advantageous in terms of versatility and flexibility.
Now, Arrow Special Parts can make complex parts such as manifolds with even more functionally. Cutting is spotlessly clean and fault-free. The prototyping step has also been drastically shortened. With laser technology, they can define the exhaust starting from the 3D CAD model, build the prototype, send it to the customer for approval and start actual production very rapidly. This implies significant saving in terms of the hourly cutting cost and offers a much better performance.
