W6E Hydraulic operated reduction machine for pipe ends
Hydraulically operated reduction machine with 12 segment blocks for the precise reducing of pipe ends.
Construction:
Solid supporting machine frame consisting of steel hollow profiles.
The reduction machine was developed on the basis of the expanding machine W6.
Reduction machine:
- High-performance expanding machine W6 with reduction head,
- 12-segments sectionalized, nominal diameter 40-300 with support on the machine,
- incl. stronger hydraulic cylinder,
- Touch Panel and Siemens plc.,
- incl. Step-by-step program for pulling-in in variable steps
- 12-segments reduction tools of hardened steel: 1 for each outer diameter between 120mm - 300mm
If you use thin-wall material under 1mm, you need:
- 1 spring housing
- 1 press block for a thin wall – per reduction tool
