iCut

“Every great invention is born from a simple idea. Then people define it brilliant”

iCut is our new patented pipe cutting system that completely redefines the standard for high-quality pipe cutting. What differs from conventional pipe cutting systems is the absence of the planetary blade.
The heated blade moves along the axes through an independent mechanism powered by servomotors.

The advanced software allows iCut to simplify the whole process and makes it suitable to cut not only smooth or corrugated PVC, PE, PP pipes, but also profile geometries such as ovals, ellipses, rectangles, and irregular shapes.

Sizing tanks for PVC, PE, PP pipes

Dual or single vacuum chamber sizing tanks for pipes extrusion with a diameter range of between 10 to 1000 mm, in single or dual strand.

The sizing tanks are made of stainless steel and are fixed to a steel base, equipped with independent automatic or manual devices for longitudinal and transversal position adjustment on the extrusion line.

The machines are equipped with a water system with thermostatic and valve controls to reduce the amount of water in circulation and keep the cooling temperature constant.

Water is pressure-sprayed onto the pipe by spray sprinklers assembled on stainless steel bars; the spray angle is adjustable. Spray water is recycled and cleaned through a filter, thus preventing clogging of the sprinklers.

An electric motor, connected to a rail fixed to the floor, controls longitudinal movements.

Cooling tanks

Cooling tanks for the PVC, PE, PP smooth and corrugated pipes extrusion

Cooling Tanks For Corrugated Pipes

Stainless steel cooling tanks for PE and PP corrugated pipes ranging between 40 and 1200 mm diameter. Tanks are designed to provide constant pipe cooling and to avoid any deformation throughout pipe extrusion line. A ventilation system cleans and dries the pipe as it exits the cooling chamber.

Cooling Tanks For PVC, PE And PP smooth Pipes

Cooling tanks for a range of smooth PVC, PE and PP pipes of 10 mm to 1000 mm in diameter and 6 to 9 meters in length. Water collection tank and spray sprinklers support pipes both made of stainless steel. A pump transports the circulating water to the spray sprinklers, assembled on stainless steel bars, with an adjustable spray angle. Spray water is recycled and cleaned through a separation filter, thus preventing clogging of the sprinklers.

 

The inspection hatches, made of stainless steel, are located on the operator side.

Haul-offs

Haul-offs for smooth and corrugated pipe

Haul-offs for the corrugated pipe extrusion process

Haul-offs for corrugated pipes of between 40 and 1400 mm diameter. Machines equipped with two or three tracks for synchronized pulling with the corrugator speed. The haul-offs are installed on the extrusion line to avoid any buckling to the corrugation after their exit from the corrugator.

Advantages

Technical features

Haul-Offs for Smooth Pipes

Haul-offs for smooth plastics pipes with belts or pads made to obtain the maximum pulling force and contact pressure on the pipe. Poly-v belts caterpillar tracks with contact surface made up of rubber or special materials or caterpillar tracks with vulcanized rubber inserts, which can be changed over for different profiles.

Tracks controlled by means of motors equipped with encoder, which ensure accuracy, stable extrusion speed and reduced maintenance. The fine adjustment of the upper belt guarantees the best traction, avoiding any crushing effect on the pipe. The Haul-offs are equipped with on-board digital extrusion speed indicators.

Cutting units for plastic pipes

All our machines are manufactured upon customer’s request to match different types of extruded plastic products. For this reason, our devices are able to process PVC, PE, PP and LDPE, corrugated and smooth, single or double wall pipes.
Each unit is compatible with automatic in-line operation, including electronic synchronisation with the line.

Rapid Planetary Cutting unit type TVP

TVP family consists of TVP for smooth pipes and TVP-C for corrugated pipes. TVP is a planetary saw with orbital cut for PVC-PP pipes, up to diameter 200mm for corrugated ones. During the cutting phase the cutting unit follows the pipe at the extrusion speed.

The cut is executed by a blade rotating on the pipe circumference, without material removal. The cut is consequently clean without burrs or swarfs. The TVP saw can be equipped with an encoder system to execute “at once” cuts synchronized to the extrusion speed.

TVP-C

TVP-C is a rapid planetary cutting unit only for corrugated pipes. The difference with the TVP is the automatical capacity of the TVP-C cutting unit of finding the corrugated pipe groove centre.

TC.TVP/40

The range of machines built by Baruffaldi Plastic Technology-Primac has been enriched with the new TC.TVP/40 planetary cutter with built-in traction haul-off, for the in-line cutting and processing of PP, PE and LDPE pipes.

The device has rotary knife cutting without material removal, with cutting precision of ±1 mm/m at high process speed (20 m/min).

The cutting system is equipped with vision sensors for precise point cutting points on the moving profile. The haul-off group, with two independent track speed pairs, provides for pipe compacting where necessary. Haul-off and cutting units are operated by four independent brushless motors for maximum flexibility of the system.

The last generation operator panel allows the user to select production programs through preset job prescriptions. The advanced electronics of this new, versatile and compact machine makes it possible to control cycle times in order to optimize the production process at best. The machine is also distinguished by its quiet operation and energy saving features.

Knife-cutting unit type TPE

Knife cutter for the automatic cutting of HD-PE, LD-PE and PP pipes as well as copper-pre-insulated PE pipes on the extrusion line.

The unit is designed to cut different pipes and profiles by replacing easily the pipe clamping vices. The cutting unit is assembled on a carriage that follows the pipe path during the cutting phase.

The blade is controlled by an hydraulic system.
The cutting blade penetration and the truck feed are adjustable from the outside of the machine and they are controlled by a pneumatic cylinder.
