If you need to bend rigid conduits for an electrical project, purchasing an electric bender will save you a ton of work and ultimately help you bend said materials in optimal ways. You just want to make sure your electric bender comes with a couple of features.

Software Compatible 

You may need to perform some complex bends on rigid conduits, but this isn't going to be an issue if you find an electric bonder that works with software. The software is where you can design conduits in terms of where bends will take place.

Once you get done with this planning, all you have to do now is activate the electric conduit and it will work based on these specific inputs. That saves you from having to do much besides loading rigid conduits up in the bender and then monitoring performance as a precaution.

Powerful Motor

The reason why electric benders are able to manipulate conduits in different ways is because of their motors. They help create the power that's necessary to generate force for bending conduits in particular ways. You want to make sure this machine has a powerful motor that you can depend on for a long time.

Then, regardless of what attributes your rigid conduits have, the bender is going to manipulate them in a refined manner without putting extra force on the motor. You just need to figure out how much power is enough for this particular component before purchasing from a supplier or having one of these machines manufactured. 

Supportive Base

Electric conduits will come with a base that you'll set up on the ground around your workshop where conduit bending will take place. You want to make sure this base is supportive and structurally sound because it will improve the type of bending results you're able to have with rigid conduits.

The base shouldn't be able to move to either side when conduit bending takes place. You can then use this machinery without the constant fear of it tipping over and possibly damaging or causing structural damage to the rigid conduits you work with. 

If you have rigid conduits that need to be bent to certain angles around various sections, then you need an electric bender. As long as it has the right capabilities, you can continue using this machine to bend rigid conduits in a precise and safe manner around your shop.
