ESAB SmartPipe cutting system offers automated pipe cutting option
- May 4, 2020
- Product Release
- Tube and Pipe Fabrication
ESAB Welding & Cutting Products has introduced the SmartPipe system for automated plasma or oxyfuel cutting of pipe alongside a table for cutting flat plate. The standard line covers pipe in diameters from 2 to 12 in., lengths up to 20 ft., and weights up to 2,200 lbs. The heavy-duty model can handle pipe diameters up to 10 ft. (including 36-, 48-, and 72-in. diameters) and lengths up to 60 ft.
The system comprises a pipe turning unit with a manually adjustable chuck and a CNC turning axis, two or more adjustable-position pipe supports, and a support track. A typical configuration would situate the turning unit between the cutting table and gantry rail (oriented parallel to the rail), but it can be located behind the table as well (parallel to the gantry).
Graphical programming software creates programs for straight or bevel cuts for any pipe application, such as saddles, holes, slots, or weld cut preparations. The software, which runs on the company’s Vision controller, generates a 3D rendering of the finished pipe so users can confirm details before cutting.
