4 AXIS NC SADDLE CUTTER
4-Axis NC Saddle Cutter: Precision Pipe Cutting Solution for Industrial Applications
The 4-Axis NC Saddle Cutter is a precision machine designed for automated cutting of saddle profiles on pipes and cylindrical components. Using four-axis numerical control, it enables accurate and repeatable saddle preparation for branch connections in industrial piping systems.
This machine is widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, and power industries, where high-precision cuts, consistent quality, and reduced fabrication time are critical. Its four-axis design allows simultaneous control of pipe rotation, positioning, and cutting head movement, ensuring perfect alignment and fit-up for subsequent welding operations.
Key Features
- Used for the synchronous processing for the flat and groove at both ends of the roller.
- Four sets of milling devices work simultaneously to guarantee the symmetry of the flat and groove of the roller shaft.
- The clamping, positioning and tool feeding are driven by hydraulic system, which enables the tool feeding smooth and the processing is highly precise.
- Supports main and branch pipe diameters commonly used in industrial piping (15°–90° branch angles).
