Tube flying cut-off
REQUIREMENTS FOR CUTTING TUBES AND PROFILES ON FLYING CUT-OFF TUBE PRODUCTION LINE
Cutting tubes in flying cut-off applications requires saw blades with precision, speed, and durability to ensure clean cuts and high efficiency. Selecting the ideal saw blade ensures maximized production, lower blade consumption, less waste and reduced overall cost.
At KINKELDER, we’ve developed the KINS' ORANGE saw blade series to deliver long lasting cutting performance across all types of flying cut-off applications:
- KINS' ORANGE SpeedMaster Performance – Designed for fast cutting of carbon steel rectangular, square hollow sections, direct forming and thin-wall tubes.
- KINS' ORANGE SpeedMaster – Optimized for both single and twin flying cut-off machines, ensuring efficiency in various production setups.
- KINS' ORANGE ScarfMaster – Specifically developed for cutting tubes with heavy ID-scarf, maintaining blade life and long production runs.
- KINS' ORANGE OrbitalMaster – The go-to blade for orbital flying cut-off applications, providing consistent performance in high-speed operations.
By choosing KINS' ORANGE saw blades, you ensure the shortest cutting times, superior blade life, and consistent performance in high-speed flying cut-off applications.
Flying Cut-Off to cut tubes or pipes at high speed
In flying cut-off applications, tubes or pipes are continuously fed through a tube mill where they are cut to precise lengths while in motion. The cutting is performed by a cutting unit that moves along with the rolled or direct formed tube, eliminating the need to stop the production line. This process allows for clean, accurate cuts with minimal burrs, improving efficiency and reducing downtime. Flying cut-off applications are ideal for high-speed production, ensuring consistent cut quality and optimizing throughput while maintaining precise control over the cutting process. The long blade life ensures minimal disruptions, less waste and high production volumes.
Advantages of Flying Cut-Off to cut tubes or pipes
Cutting tubes in flying cut-off applications offers several advantages, especially for high-speed production environments. Here are the key benefits:
- Continuous production and high efficiency
- Precision in cutting length & cut quality
- Versatility across materials & shapes
- Reduced wear & longer blade life
- Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
