What Are the Application Areas and Key Points of Manual Pipe Cutting Machine?

The pipe cutting machine is a special machine tool, which is suitable for cutting waste pipe heads at both ends of seamless steel pipes in large quantities, automatically or semi-automatically. 

The end face of the cut pipe can be automatically chamfered with outer corners, inner corners, or beveled. The pipe cutting machine has the characteristics of high rigidity, high power, high degree of automation, and high production efficiency, and is necessary equipment for the production of seamless steel pipes.

The working process of the pipe cutting machine is controlled by the hydraulic system. Because the bracket cylinder in the hydraulic balance circuit of the original pipe cutting machine has a large load and frequent movements, the energy loss is too large. Excessive energy loss is not only a waste but also causes a series of problems, such as increased oil temperature, increased leakage, accelerated oil aging, and an impact on the quality of incision processing. Therefore, the hydraulic balance circuit of the bracket cylinder is analyzed, and a new type of hydraulic balance circuit that can recover and utilize the potential energy of heavy objects is proposed.

The cutting of pipes is usually in the form of electric pipe cutters and sawing. The power supply is required when using an electric pipe cutting machine, and the working space is large, and it is easy to generate electric sparks and noise; the sawing operation has low efficiency and long cycle, so it cannot be used in the construction site. As a result, the use of electric pipe cutters and saws in pipeline construction and maintenance operations is limited.

The manual pipe cutting machine is a machine that realizes pipe cutting through its own rotation. It is mainly suitable for cutting steel and cast iron pipelines with different pipe diameters, different media, and different temperatures, and can be widely used in pipeline construction and maintenance operations. 

Manual pipe cutting machines are widely used in foreign pipeline construction and maintenance operations. Importing manual pipe cutting machines from abroad is not only expensive but also has a long delivery period, which brings inconvenience to future maintenance.

Select the type according to the diameter of the pipe to be cut; when fixing the manual pipe cutting machine, the tightness should be moderate to ensure that the four cutting knives are in good contact with the outer wall of the pipe; during the cutting operation, use the crank handle to move the manual pipe cutting machine to one Pull in the direction, and the force should be uniform; every time the manual pipe cutter rotates half a circle, you can use the handle to tighten the nut to feed the knife.

(1)The manual pipe cutting machine is simple in structure, small in size, easy to operate, and can be used for cutting pipelines of different diameters, different media, and different temperatures.

(2)The working space is small, and large-diameter steel and cast iron pipe fittings can be cut in a limited space. When cutting a 200 mm tube, only 100 mm of operating space is required around the tube; when cutting a 500 mm tube, only 200 mm of operating space is required around the tube.

(3)No power supply is required during operation, with low noise and safe use. It can be used for cutting with low noise in ditches, underwater, and in explosive environments, and is especially suitable for use in the field without a power supply.

(4)It is labor-saving and fast when cutting, and the shape of the pipe incision after cutting is regular.

(1)In the development process of the manual pipe cutting machine, the key problems such as frame processing, cutting blade material selection, and heat treatment process have been solved, and its technology has reached the same level in foreign countries, filling the domestic blank.

(2)The manual pipe cutting machine has many advantages and can be widely used in the construction and maintenance of steel and cast iron pipelines.

(3)In the maintenance operation of the Northeast oil pipeline, the manual pipe cutting machine has a good effect on site, which reduces the labor intensity of workers, improves the quality of the project, and has considerable economic and social benefits.

(4)It is now at the climax of the second construction of domestic pipelines. Multiple oil and gas pipelines will be built. At the same time, the original oil and gas pipelines also need to be continuously maintained. Therefore, the market prospect of manual pipe-cutting machines is broad.
