RCA 500 - Roller Cutter Automat
The RCA 500 is designed for fast and precise pipe cutting without the need for further processing within the same machine. Operations such as surface finishing, brushing, or edge deburring must be carried out on separate equipment.
Pipes are automatically fed from a magazine into the machine using a gripper system. The cutting process itself is based on the proven concept used in the RBA machine. Thanks to servo-driven feeding, the cut length is defined with high accuracy.
Optionally, the system can be equipped with a robot to automatically transfer pipes from the previous production step (e.g., Thermofusion) directly into the RCA 500. In this setup, the entire process is fully automated.
