Watts W-364 Pipe Cutting Machine
- W-364 Computer controlled pipe cutting machine conveys and rotates pipe from 3″ to 36″ OD with a 25′ machine bed capable of supporting 500 lbs. per foot for a maximum of 12,500 lbs.
- 6-axis profiling carriage on precision machined and hardened track. Simultaneous motion maintains the torch cutting position along the linear axis of the pipe and perpendicular to the linear axis to perform beveled holes and end cuts.
- The 3rd and 4th Axis of motion allows the oxy-fuel torch to rotate along the linear axis of the pipe and perpendicular to the linear axis to perform true beveled holes and end cuts. The maximum rotation angle allows the torch to rotate 45 degrees from vertical in both directions. This will allow the operator to create a fitting with the edge preparation done and ready to weld.
- Tracking torch head includes vertical and horizontal tracking mechanism to maintain torch height and pipe centerline to automatically compensation for bent or out-of-round pipe.
- Floating pipe clamp with locking mechanism for accurate rotation that eliminates pipe walk.
- Hydraulic controlled lift deck with powered machine conveyor.
- Hydraulically actuated off loader arms to transfer the pipe off the cutting cell.
- PypeServer™ software for at-machine and remote pipe cut programming and job management. This software simplifies the importing, design and nesting of parts, streamlines job estimating, scheduling and inventory management, and allows job tracking in real-time.
