those are press bends. very close to mandrel, but alot cheaper.
crush bends have ripples all the way through the bend, press bends have slight ones just at the beginning, and end of the bend. and if done right, can be visually the same as a mandrel bender. just have to use skid lubricant, and the die's have to be kept very clean, and go slowly.
