TAVINOX Academy series: pressing step by step
The TAVINOX PRESS pressing sequence on a real tube, filmed in a single take through the key steps. A companion to the written chapters of the certification training.
Pressing Ø 76.1–108 mm – single and double pressing
The largest sizes on the ED-60100 press machine (65 kN). When single pressing is enough (drinking water, heating, cooling) and when double pressing with DUO rings is required (fire protection, sprinkler and high-pressure pipework).
