Pipe expansion machine has been widely used in chemical, electric power, shipbuilding, metallurgy, boiler and other industries due to its easy to operate, safety and reliability. It’s mainly used to expand the pipe end so that two different pipeline sizes can be securely connected together.
The pipe expansion machine includes two main parts: the expansion head and the expansion controller. The expansion head is usually made of stainless steel, high speed steel, or hardened steel. It contains the core that can be adjusted according to the size of the pipe, so that the pipe can be expanded from the inner wall to the end of the pipe. The expanding head also has a conical base that controls the expansion process and an expansion tool to finish the expansion. The expansion controller is an electronic device with a LCD screen that allows users to control the speed and depth of the expansion.
The operation of a pipe expansion machine is quite simple. First, users need to select a suitable core for the pipe, and then fix the core on the head. Then insert the pipe into the hole of the head. After that, start the controller, adjust the speed level, and track the pipe’s status on the LCD screen. Finally, the core ejects the expanded pipe.
When using the pipe expansion machine, workers should pay attention to safety. During operation, the machine should be firmly fixed to the working surface, and the pipe should be held firmly. In addition, workers should always wear protective glasses and protective gloves, and pay attention to protecting themselves from overheating.
When purchasing the pipe expansion machine, it is important to choose a reliable brand. Quality assurance is the primary factor. The machine should be certified in accordance with the industry standards, and the cost performance ratio should be considered. Also, the after-sales service needs to be consider, the supplier should provide repair and maintenance services to ensure the smooth and reliable operation of the machine.
In conclusion, pipe expansion machines are an indispensable device for many industries. By following the above tips, one can choose a reliable machine that ensures safety and a better investment return.
