The manufacturer of tube bending machinery, Unison, has been named Yorkshire's 'Most Enterprising Company Of The Year'. The accolade came at the first of a new regional awards competition organised by the International Business Forum event.

Unison has developed a novel bending cell for tube and pipe manufacturer RathGibson to serve the growing demand for U-shaped heat exchanger components. A version of Unison's servomotor-based tube bending machine uses a roll-forming tool to create custom-radius tubular parts under software control, eliminating much of the expensive tooling and set-up time conventionally required for this application.
