1) Suitable Size of Pipes: This medium sized model is suitable for cutting on medium diameter pipes, with diameter up to Φ1400mm, length up to 9m;
2) One Part Cut Only at Any Moment: Shown in the above photo, there is one piece of short length (Around 3 ~ 4m) pipes laid on supporting friction rollers of the CNC Pipe Cutting Machine. Although this short pipe does not occupy the full length of friction rollers support, based on control logic of the machine, it is recommended that at any moment there is only single piece of pipe to be cut in the machine;
3) Other Equipment in Workshop: Also in the above photo, there is a group of motor drive moving Welding Rotator in the distance. These all belong to equipment for pipe fabrication and production at customer facility;
2. In terms of background, here the model of 6 Axis 1400/9 is derivative product of 6 Axis 1400/12 model, which has 3000mm shorter valid cutting stroke along pipe length direction against the latter model.
1) In the product section of 7Axis 2500/9 model, we mentioned 2 types of operating stations equipped in these equipment on pipe cutting:
2) Floor standing type operation station on pipe cutting: The monitor and operation panel is integrated into industrial computer: (Fig.2)
Cantilever type operation station: (Fig.3)
3) Correspondingly, because of powerful function control software in CNC system, the arrangement of buttons and switches on operating panel of CNC Pipe Intersection Cutting Machine is relative simple and concise: (Fig.4)
CNC Monitor screen shot on HMI, together with corresponding operation tips, on CNC control pipe cutting operation: (Fig.5)
There is a professional workpiece library built in at the industrial computer of the machine. Its operation is intuitive and real time control:
1. Key in the library data for Pipes：
1) Select the corresponding workpiece thru the library;
2) Input parameters of the pipe;
3) Cutting program is created automatically；
2. Position of Pre-cut at Initiation of CNC Control Pipe Cutting：
1) The numerical control system adds on lead in automatically;
2) Then pierce a hole at the scrap of pipe automatically, guaranteeing smooth and non-slur surface of curved pipe；
1) For 0° of turning angle, the pipe will be cut right above；
2) When turning angle is 180°, the pipe will be revolved 180° automatically for cutting；
4. From above we can see that, operation is plain and user friendly.
