The machining Unit for machines TTS-ROD makes it possible to machine the welds of Socket Welding (SW) type pipe fittings as part of such maintenance or repair work.
For machining operations, the TTS-ROD mobile machining units are equipped with Units:
• - The Unit is composed of a carriage and a clutch finger.
• - Two carriages are available depending on the type of application:
• - A carriage equipped with an ovality tracking system of the tube and a carriage without tracking.
• - An HSS or insert tool, if necessary with coating, allows machining to be carried out by moving axially along the tube.
• - The axial travel of the carriage is 20 mm.
• - Machining up to a thickness of 10 mm (weld bead thickness).
• - Automatic disengagement system if the truck reaches the front stop.
• - Machining only of the weld, integrity of the tube preserved.
• - Portable, lightness of the mobile machining unit.
• - Rigidity and tightening allowing direct contact with the piping.
• - Reduction in intervention time and therefore reduction in the duration of exposure to ionizing radiation.
• - Compact machine, suitable for work on site in areas that are very difficult to access.
• - Quick and simple assembly.
• - Motorizations adapted according to the desired machining configurations: in-line or with angle transmission, wired or wireless electric, pneumatic.
• - Precise and qualitative machining (welding of the tube without additional preparation after machining).
• - No heat affected zones during machining (absence of HAZ)
• - No dust or splashing.
• - Dry machining.
• - The machine receiving the Unit keeps its basic functions (cutting and beveling).
