1. Nature: The 5 Axis 3000/9 model in this section is sibling product of 5 Axis 3000/12 model, with 3000mm shorter moving stroke of cutting torch along pipe axial direction;
1) Workpiece Diameter: Pipe diameter covering small to medium to large size, up to Φ3000mm;
2) Workpiece Length: Max. available cutting length is 9000mm, for 1 piece of pipe;
3) Control Axis and Ability: With 5 Axis control (X/ Y /Z /A /B) in this model of machine, oblique chamfering can be cut together with cut off within one time stroke of cutting torch;
Large diameter and thick wall pipe, cut with slant beveling hole, in Wuxi JACK 5 Axis 3000/9 Large Flame Plasma CNC Pipe Cutting Machine: (Fig.1)
As can be seen from the first segment, the distinction among models is based on 3 critical specifications of:
1) Control Axis: There are variations of 3 Axis/ 5 Axis/ 6 Axis/ 7 Axis in the field of CNC control pipe cutting, rendering capabilities from basic cut off and straight edge hole, to complicated beveling of various forms;
The 9 standard and common adopted grooves available from Wuxi JACK 5 Axis/6 Axis/ 7 Axis CNC Pipe Intersection Cut Machine: (Fig.2)
2) The Max. Pipe Length: There are variations in “/12m/ 9m/ 6m”; The reason why we have such partition on model, is mainly considered for best cost effectiveness;
3) The Max. Pipe Diameter: There are variations of “3000mm/ 1400mm/ 600mm/2000mm/2500mm” in the machine. Of which, the specifications of “2000mm/ 2500mm” were developed following “3000mm/ 1400mm/ 600mm”;
Varying diameters of pipe from Φ80mm to Φ3000mm can all be cut and edge grooved in Wuxi JACK CNC Pipe Cutting Machine: (Fig.3)
1. The reason lies behind such degree of segmentation: The CNC Pipe Cutting Machine is a very sophisticated equipment, which involves industrial computer, programming software, communication between hardware and software, cutting system (Oxygen fuel and or plasma), etc.;
2. Of which even for standard model of the machine, it is impossible to devise a “one fit for all” model, to meet specific demands from all customers;
And, even if such unique one model exists, it will not be a cost effective solution for many customers:
1) For example, the model of 5 Axis 3000/9 flame plasma cutting large model is for cutting medium to large pipes, with max. 9m length and diameter of Φ3000mm;
2) If customer chooses the “/12” model, this customer will spend unnecessary more money, paying for the extra 3m length of workpiece friction roller group and mechanical frame;
3) Besides, considering the special control principle in the realm of CNC control pipe intersection cutting, it is not recommended to cut 2 or more pieces of pipes together. Instead, there should be one piece of pipe to be cut in the CNC Pipe Cutting Machine at one time;
4) This is why the “/12” model machine is not suitable for customers whose workpieces pipe have max. 9m length;
4. Finally, as summary, besides the above mentioned standard models, Wuxi JACK can design and manufacture machine with special size and specifications for customers, who has demand outside the range of standard model machine can cover.
