The CNC controlled Pipe Profile Cutting Machine allows to cut and bevel pipes. PPCM can do pipe OD from 50 to 650 mm and pipe length up to 12.000 mm by oxy-fuel or plasma. User friendly software allows quick understanding and efficient use of PPCM machines after a short training. NC data file transfer to PPCM from CAD/CAM software available as option.
Description
Pipe OD 100 to 1524 mm(4-60")
Max. pipe length up to 12 m and weight up to 10t
The most important feature and advantage of PPCM-1500 is:
Its user friendly software including a wide scope of standard macros representing the typical cutting shapes.
User friendly software including library of macros for most typical cutting shapes
Automatic compensation of cutting speed depending on the material thickness, torch angle and cutting direction for the best cutting quality
Heavy duty rigid construction
Well proven in most demanding environments
Easy access to gas valves
Fume exhaust system thru spindle (option)
Additional torch to heat up the material (option)
PPCM OFF LINE PROGRAMMING All standard macros for PPCM can also be used on an external PC.
Away from the machine, in an office environment, an operator can prepare the PPCM for the next job. This is thanks to the off line programming software.

CAD / CAM connection
Promotech is able to offer its customers a simple way of generating the CNC code necessary to cut complex pipe intersection shapes with the Lantek Flex3d Tubes software. With the system, engineers are to able import CAD geometry, design tubes using a set of standard shapes, or construct them from 2D outlines and generate them with any type of contour projected through the tube. This technology increases the capabilities of engineers using Promotech’s machinery and enhance the flexibility of the machine itself.
Lantek Automatic Nesting system
Lantek automatic nesting system determines the most efficient position of elements to be cut from pipes, thus minimizing waste of material.
PPCM powered by Lantek (Nesting) allows:
ensures minimal material waste
facilitating managing the warehouse of pipes
shortening the time of pipe positioning
Features and benefits
Plasma cutting
Typical and customized pipe joints preparation
Optimal cutting angles and torch paths calculated by the PPCM control system ensures extremely accurate weld preparation
Additional heavy-duty supports for long-length pipes
Oxy-fuel cutting
Advanced design and top quality components enable fast and efficient cutting with top quality results
