The principle of the new GF 20 AVM, for
cutting and facing high alloy, low alloy and
unalloyed metal pipes, is based on the
planetary cutting process. The machine
can cut pipe up to a thickness of 15mm
(0.591").
An automatic feed module, known as
AVM, controls the feed process, increases
saw blade durability, and optimises cutting
results, maximising productivity and
increasing efficiency. The machine has a
new motor optimised for speed, especially
for stainless steel and high performance
materials without any additional driving
mechanism.
The GF 20 AVM also has a highly
adjustable and robust lifting bench,
including a swarf collector. Other features
include an ergonomic operator handle and
safe operator position, and a swivel cable
containing a plug and socket connector for
quick and easy replacements.
Options include a continual cooling system
to increase saw blade durability and high
surface quality of the pipe, and aluminium
clamping shells designed for processing
thin-walled pipes.
Orbitalum Tools GmbH, Germany, is a
leader in the area of orbital metal pipe
cutting and facing technology. The
company’s GF 20 AVM is a powerful
solution for cutting and bevelling pipes
between 283mm and 508mm (11.142" to
20") in diameter.
These models are easy to operate by use
of a touchscreen, while all functions can be
intuitively called up.
Also available from Neu GmbH are cutting-
lines with loader-magazine and automatic
mitre adjustment, together with high speed
cutting lines for tubes. A wide range of
special purpose machines rounds up the
Neu product range.

The DGS-L series is universal in design
and provides innumerable adjustment
possibilities. The series can cut bent
profiles concurrently on both ends, with
accuracy and advanced productivity.
The supporting table can be rotated to
obtain optimal material stress. In addition,
rafter-cuts can be achieved by adjusting the
mitre and inclination of the sawing head.
J Neu GmbH, Germany, manufacture
double mitre saws and multihead
saws under the Ekal brand, which are
characterized by durable design and precise
cutting results. Rafter trimmer functions
are possible with some models, when
combined with the universal adjustment
possibilities. These saws are ideally suited
to those production enterprises dependent
on maximum flexibility.
