Chipless
cut-off
machine
THE TCM10 from Ravni Technologies
straightens and cuts steel tubes (brake
tubes or gas oil tubes), copper tubes and
coated tubes, from 4 to 10mm OD. The
standard line includes a single or double
motorised decoiler which is synchronised
with the machine. The defect controller
or a junction controller is usually placed
before the straightening machine.
The tube is pulled up to 180m/min
thanks to the caterpillars, and is clinched
into two sets of jaws and cut with a wheel.
Production rate is 18 parts (4m-long) per
minute, and the tolerance level is ±0.5mm
over 4m.
After the tube has been cut, the bars
can be discarded in many ways. The scraps
fall directly into a special box, and the
main lengths are evacuated in front of the
machine after going through several stages
where they can be tied. Other lengths can
be evacuated on the rear of the cutting
bench.
All functions are programmable on the
screen in conversational language, and
the line is managed by a CNC and an
industrial PC. Ravni Technologies includes
training and set-up of its machines, all over
the world.
