Straightening & F inishing Machinery
Ravni Technologies, France, is the
manufacturer of the MDC10-TU-
CFS automatic cutting line capable of
straightening and cutting steel tubes,
copper tubes, stainless steel tubes, and
alloy materials. The machine operates with
coils in a diameter range of 3-10mm.
The standard line includes a single or
double motorized encoiler synchronized
with the machine, two feeding stations with
rollers or caterpillar, a rotating straightener
and a slitting saw cutting unit. The
straightness of the cut tube is in the region
of 0.1mm and 0.2mm/m.
The feeding speed and
straightener speed are
synchronized. All components
of the line, operated by
a programmable touch-
screen, are designed to
take advantage of this
synchronization.
All the tools can be
changed very quickly and
the straightener is equipped
with two preset cassettes
allowing changing of tools
without upsetting the regulations. A
flying cut is available on all models.
Ravni provides the service for the
installation, training and setup of the
machine all over the world.
