Why do pipe manufacturers use shared roller pipe making machines?

Traditional ERW welded pipe production machines require a set of rolling mill dies for each pipe type. Switching between production specifications necessitates disassembling and reassembling the entire rolling mill set, resulting in 2-4 hours of downtime. This leads to high costs associated with die procurement, inventory, and labor.

In contrast, a single rolling mill uses a shared pipe-making machine. Driven by a motor, the rolling mill frame opens, closes, rises, and adjusts its position. A single rolling mill set can produce various round and rectangular pipes within a given area, eliminating the need to disassemble and replace the rolling mill dies.

1 Significantly Reduced Investment Costs for Tube Making Machine Molds

- Traditional Tube Making Machines:

Dozens of specifications require the purchase of dozens of sets of rollers. Roller materials are expensive, tying up significant capital, and mold procurement costs are also very high.

- Mold-Sharing Tube Making Machines:

One set of rollers covers a specification range, reducing roller procurement costs by 80-95%. It also reduces mold warehouse space requirements, eliminating the need for storing and managing large quantities of heavy rollers, saving storage space and management costs.

2 Reduced Downtime and Increased Effective Production Capacity

Traditional Production Specification Changes:

Downtime for roller removal, hoisting, installation, alignment, and trial production takes 2-4 hours per change. Frequent specification changes result in significant time wasted on mold changes, compressing effective production time.

Mold-Sharing Tube Making Machines:

Only parameter input is required; the machine automatically adjusts roller positions, completing specification switching in minutes to tens of minutes. There is almost no downtime for disassembly and assembly, significantly increasing production capacity for multi-specification, small-batch orders.

3 Adaptable to Current Market Order Structure

Currently, pipe manufacturing plants handle numerous small-batch, high-demand orders with varying specifications. Traditional welded pipe production lines, with their frequent roller changes, are inefficient. Mold-shared pipe manufacturing machines can flexibly handle orders of different specifications, allowing for rapid switching and stronger order processing capabilities, thus enhancing market competitiveness.

Suitable for: Pipe manufacturing plants with numerous order specifications, frequent specification changes, export orders, and small to medium-batch production.
