Overview
The HY50NCB points the ends of steel advance pipes so they drive easily into rock and soil. A 35 kW high-frequency induction heater brings the pipe end to forming temperature in under 20 seconds, then a microcomputer-controlled hydraulic head closes it into a tip. The same machine can also shrink, expand, blunt and bulge pipe ends.
Key features
- Microcomputer control, hydraulic drive.
- Movable foot switch with automatic, emergency-stop and continuous modes.
- No pollution, fast, small, light, quick die change, easy to operate and maintain.
- Shrinking, expanding, blunting and bulging with interchangeable dies.
- Hot rotary forging with four quiet die segments; dies in vacuum-hardened, precision-ground die steel.
- One operator loads the pipe; the machine clamps and forms automatically. Replaces manual welding of pipe tips.
- Dies made to order for square, rectangular and hexagonal tube.
