A rotating head cut off machine is one of the most transformative inventions of the twentieth century for those who deal in Tube Cutting and Chamfering. Not only does a rotating head cut off machine change the speed and accuracy of tube cutting, but it literally changes the way the process is handled altogether. Possibly no other single invention has done more to change the nature of metal tube handling than this machine, so if your company does not yet have one, it is time for you to learn more!
What Is A Rotating Head Cut Off Machine?
A rotating head cutoff machine is a cutting instrument that reverses the process of cutting and finishing metal tubes from the traditional methods used for many years. In the past, metal tubes were rotated around a stationary cutting head to perform length cuts, then moved to a different cutting machine for finishing. There were quite a few problems with this setup: first, the motion from moving the metal pieces caused numerous burrs and nicks during the cutting process and lead to a large degree of waste or poorly-finished products. Second, the movement from one cutting station to another resulted in a great deal of lost time and productivity. Finally, the finishing in this system had to be done by hand and was often not completely accurate.
Once the rotating-head cut off machine came into the picture, however, this entire scenario changed. Now, the metal tube is held stationary at either end with chucks that keep it from vibrating, while a servo-driven cutting head rotates around the metal piece, making cuts and finishes in one process. This simple change makes a world of difference in the way that metal tubes are cut and finished. By eliminating several steps in the process, as well as the problem of vibration, those who process metal tubing are able to produce fast, accurate and replicable results with the touch of a switch.
How Can A Rotating Head Cut Off Machine Change My Business?
Even investing in the most basic form of a rotating head cutoff machine will transform a metal tube processing factory in ways that are almost unimaginable. The company will now be able to process complicated orders with lighting-fast speed and produce accurate and high-quality products on a consistent basis.
However, adding accessories can raise this bar even higher. By adding loading and unloading capabilities, an MES software system to track every aspect of production, and other add-ons, the basic rotating-head cut off system can be expanded to create an almost unimaginable improvement in production capabilities.
