Description
The CRD201/202 Time Delay Tubing Expanders are validated expansion systems engineered for precision, repeatability, and clean room compatibility. Both systems perform controlled internal expansion at the end of flexible tubing to allow secure fitting insertion — while eliminating operator variability through adjustable time delay control.
The difference comes down to operator activation method and ergonomics.
Choose the CRD201 if:
- You prefer dedicated foot pedal control
- Foot pedal activation fits your workflow
- You require expansion capability down to .040″ I.D
Choose the CRD202 if:
- You want hands-free operation
- Ergonomics and operator strain reduction are priorities
- You want a more versatile operator interface
- You want the flexibility to switch between sensor and pedal
Shared Features Across Both Models
Both time delay tubing expander models perform a controlled internal expanding operation in the end of most flexible tubing. The foot pedal/sensor and robust air cylinder will perform an expanding operation, increasing the size of the tubing and allowing ease of inserting the fitting, as well as securing the fit as the specialty tubing recovers to its original size. With the special time delay option, manufacturing and process engineers can validate the repetitiveness of the tube expansion. This will eliminate variability between operators. These medical tubing expanders also feature stainless steel bases, as well as a “Hold Open” feature to make jaw spacing adjustments easier.
Medical tube expander: Our tube expanders are well-suited for medical tube expansion operations. They feature clean room compatible construction and are able to expand medical tubing accurately, with highly repeatable results. All of our tube expanders feature stainless steel jaws to prevent contamination during expansion. Also, our expanders are extremely easy to validate. They are equipped with pressure gauges, accurate jaw gap adjustment mechanisms, and time delay relays to set expansion time. This makes tube expansion very repeatable.
Flexible tube expander: Our tube expanders are capable of expanding many types of flexible tubing. Our flexible tubing expanders can be used with either tapered or straight jaws, depending on the type of tubing to be expanded.
Plastic tube expander: Our tube expanders will expand many types of plastic tubing including PVC, urethane and many types of thermoplastics.
CE Certified Upgrade: The CRD201/202 are now available as CE certified models.
