Processing pipes and profiles
Microstep has developed the PipeCut and ProfileCut CNC cutting systems specifically for processing pipes and profiles.
The modular systems can be specially adapted to the user's requirements. The PipCut is designed for processing lengths of 3 m, 6 m or 12 m and for pipes with diameters from 50 to 800 mm. The maximum wall thickness is 50 mm for plasma cutting and up to 100 mm for oxy-fuel cutting.
Microstep has the ProfileCut in its portfolio for profile and beam processing (pictured). It cuts open profiles such as I, H, U or L profiles up to 1,000 mm high and 24 m long. It is characterized by special 3D kinematics that position the cutting torch above the profile. During the cutting process, during which a 3D bevel cutting head, the "Pantograph" rotator, moves around the profile with a one-sided inclination of 120° in the longitudinal and transverse direction, the profile is motionless.
