Reliable technology for high-quality conduit production

Fives has recently been entrusted by leading tube manufacturers in the United States, Latin America, and the Middle East to design and supply high-performance OTO tube mills and finishing technology for electrical conduit production.

Conduits primarily serve as protective enclosures for electrical wires and cables. The market is experiencing strong growth, driven by large-scale infrastructure development, which is creating a pressing need for tube manufacturers to increase capacity and remain competitive.

High-performance OTO tube mills

Fives has extensive experience engineering OTO tube mills for a variety of conduit types, including Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT), Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC), and Rigid Metal Conduit (RMC).

Our cutting-edge technology features:

• Automatic OTO entry lines from coil loading to accumulator.
• Flexible OTO forming ensures high-quality sizing and straightening processes for optimal performance at maximum throughput. For conduit applications, we also offer optimized solutions that enhance mill durability and prevent scratches on the tube surface.
• Rapid OTO changeovers with automatic cartridge or cassette replacement allow smooth transitions between production batches while maintaining precision and maximizing operational uptime.
• High-speed OTO cut-offs precisely cut conduits to the standard length of 10 ft (3.05 m), enabling continuous production and significantly reducing downtime. Integrated automation ensures accurate dimensions, high performance, and minimal maintenance.

OTO tube mills are also equipped with in-line galvanization systems to preserve tube surface integrity.

Integrated finishing solutions

Committed to continuous improvement and delivering turnkey solutions, Fives offers integrated finishing lines for conduit production.

Our customized solutions are tailored to each customer’s needs, ensuring every conduit meets the highest standards of safety and functionality.
