This work is developed based on the difficulty of micro and small companies to invest in bending tubes for the manufacture of certain products systems, as modern machines found in the market have a high purchase price and manual machines though are cheap, do not guarantee bending precision and no amount of production enough for a manufacturing process, resulting in high production costs and therefore making it impossible to manufacture their products they will not be competitive in the market. From the detected problem, a semiautomatic system based on operation of a manual pipe bender machine seeking to increase production and improve the quality has been developed. This work was done using the SOLIDWORKS® tool and is manufactured a prototype full scale enabling perform tests and compare its efficiency with respect to the manual machine. The data collected showed an increase of 326.66% in production, which proves that the project developed is feasible.
