Valgro Bend & Oval Auto feed Planetary tube grinding and Polishing machine do not spin the tubes during the process, which creates a safe operator environment and eliminates the possibility of barber poling. Planetary systems also do not require tubes that are perfectly round, and instead can process tubes that are oval or have irregular shapes. Most significant, they can grind bent tubes.
Planetary Tube Machines: The abrasives rotate around the workpiece allowing for the bent tube to be fed through the machine by hand.

The highest possible degree of surface finish is usually desirable, for two quite distinct reasons.
