COFIM
France
6H42
The COFIM CTO machine uses a cold
pipe cutting process that does not burn
any gas, and so reduces the risk of fire,
protecting the site from fire hazards.
Using a CTO machine makes it easy to
keep the site clean using a waste tank
set under the machine, and leaves no
waste on-site after the job is completed.
It is possible to cut dry or, if cooling is
necessary, water can be used to spray
the cutting tools – no chemical solutions
are needed.
The COFIM CTO machine is ATEX-
certified and can be used to maintain
any pipeline. There is no risk of explosion
due to sparks or fire caused by a hot
cutting process.
The machine is equipped with a start
safety handle with a minimum of 1.5m
distance for the safety of the operator.
Once the machine is set on the pipe
to be cut or cut and bevelled, the
operator can manage the whole process
while keeping a safe distance from the
rotating cutting tool.
A clamshell design allows the CTO
machine to be used on closed lines.
Various options can be used on the CTO
machine, such as out of round tracking
devices, single point machining devices
for heavy wall pipes, and counter boring
devices.
Contrôle Mesure Systèmes
France
6H39
With more than 25 years of experience
in designing and manufacturing eddy
current and ultrasonic instruments and
systems, Contrôle Mesure Systèmes
(CMS) installs worldwide its ultrasonic
rotating head, designed for special steel
tube manufacturers such as stainless
steel, titanium, zirconium and carbon
steel.
RotoUTscan, the result of several
years of R&D, allows testing of a large
diameter range from 6 to 250mm, and
detects longitudinal and transversal
defects, thickness measurement,
OD-ID and ovalisation. Advantages
include four inspection targets in one
system; modularity – each block can
be changed separately; resolution up
to 1µm; accuracy up to ±2µm; min OD
6mm and WT 0.4mm; and min flaw
depth 5% or 10% WT.
Due to its flexibility, RotoUTscan can be
adapted to all customers’ configurations.
Installed in a strong control bench it can
be combined with eddy current systems
allowing a full-body inspection of the
tube.
Probus supervision software collects
data provided by NDT equipment,
displays combined signals (UT/ET) and
creates inspection reports that can be
used as control evidence for quality
services and customers. Data stored
can be recalled for analysis and quality
treatment.
CMS’s instruments and systems include
magnetising and demagnetising units,
probes and accessories, and EC rotating
head RotoETscan.
