Automatic machine tool for making folded spiral-seam pipes

Our new machine tool for making spiral-seam pipes is the result of hard work of all our personnel. It took us quite a long time to design this piece of machinery. Before we finally came up with an optimum solution, we had checked several variants which were constantly being improved and optimized during the machine operation. Not only our designers were involved in the process of making — we also paid attention to the recommendations of our adjusters, the marketing staff, and, of course, our esteemed customers.

Well, what do we consider the most advanced features of our machine?

Its design gathers rich experience of our leading technical specialists, certain know-how both in profiling sections design and in the shape of profiles used for making the pipe. But the most unique part is the tooling used for spiraling and forming the seam. The reasonable simplicity and good manufacturability as well as the uniqueness of technical solutions allowed us to apply for a patent for this part of our machine. Besides its highly-effective technical solutions, our machine is very usable and it fully meets all the requirements of the safety measures.

However, the most important thing is the quality of ready-made pipes, the seam strength and absence of defects on the delicate surfaces.

Use of folded spiral-seam pipes:

  • air ducting
  • refuse chutes
  • heat and steam ducting
  • formwork
  • casings for filtering elements
  • granaries
  • other constructions elements
