Product catalog summary
Overview: Orbitalum Tools GmbH provides advanced orbital cutting and beveling machines designed for high-purity process piping. These machines are part of ITW Orbital Cutting & Welding and are known for their precision and efficiency in preparing pipes for automated welding processes.
Key Features:
  • Cold Machining Process: Ensures square, burr-free cuts without heating the tube.
  • Deformation-Free Clamping: Clamps tubes at multiple points, suitable for wall thicknesses of 2 to 10 mm.
  • Automated Cutting: Features a unique orbital cutting process with a small saw blade that can handle large tube diameters.
  • Feed Modules: Available with manual (MVM) or automatic (AVM) feed modules to optimize cutting results and tool life.
  • Material Compatibility: Capable of cutting high-alloyed, unalloyed steels, galvanized steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and plastics.
Technical Specifications:
  • Models: RA 8 and RA 12, available with AVM or MVM modules.
  • Power: Ranges from 1.8 to 1.9 kW, with additional power for AVM.
  • Speed: Variable cutting speed from 40 to 215 rpm.
  • Noise and Vibration: Low noise level at 79 dB(A) and vibration level below 2.5 m/s².
  • Dimensions and Weight: Vary by model, with weights ranging from 102.5 kg to 146.1 kg.
Advantages:
  • Safety: Enhanced safety with stationary tube and rotating tool design.
  • Productivity: Increased productivity and service life of tools.

RA 8, RA 12 (AVM/MVM)-1

Orbital cutting & beveling machines for high-purity process piping RA 8, RA 12 (AVM/MVM) Pipe cutting and beveling machines Perform economical cutting and beveling with technology made by Orbitalum Tools! Cutting and beveling high-alloy steel (stainless steel), low- and unalloyed steel, plastics, casting materials and non-ferrous metals in just seconds, using the "Planetary Cutting" method. Square, burr-free and cold machining process Deformation-free clamping system for tubes and pipes Optimum preparation for the automated welding process Sturdy design with powerful drive Unique and automated orbital cutting process Multiple point clamping Fast adjustment of dimensions Regulated cutting speed Fast tool replacement The perfect preparation for orbital welding "Enhanced safety due to stationary tube – rotating tool". The tested process of planetary cutting is another important feature, which characterizes all ORBITALUM pipe cutting machines. The saw blade rises into the cutting area and is driven orbitally around the tube. The advantage is that a small saw blade can cut a large tube diameter, without heating the tube. manual operation with manual feed module (MVM) or automatic feed module (AVM) = both optional. The latter option optimizes the cutting result, increases the tool life and reduces the operator impact. The result: Maximum safety and productivity. An innovative clamping principle which clamps the tube at several points: Thanks to the deformation-free clamping system, pipes with a wall-thickness of 2 up to 10 mm (0.079" - 0.394") can be prepared easily an quickly. It is possible to cut all high-alloyed, un- and low-alloyed steels, black and galvanized steel pipes, general structural steels, annealed cast iron pipes (GGG), aluminum, brass, copper and plastics. Besides the completely manual operation, users also have the possibility to choose between FURTHER ADVANTAGES: • Increased service life of tools • More corrosion protection through clamping jaw attachments (included) • All RA‘s are fitted with the swivel cable with a quick-disconnect coupler FEED VERSIONS: Pipe cutting and beveling machine with auto matic feed module AVM*: This intelligent Reduced operator impact by optional feed solution continuously controls the cutting speed module AVM or MVM for an automated or depending on the torque and the parameter setmanual cutting process tings. The AVM improves the handling of the GF Optimal tool contact and RA machine and stops automatically after Optimized speed range (40-215 rpm), ideal for the cutting process. Pipe cutting and beveling cutting high-performance materials (Hastelmachines with manual feed module MVM*: loy ®, P91, etc.) This manually operated feed module facilitates An ergonomically-designed motor handle for a the cutting and beveling of pipes. With the help safe and comfortable operating position of a hand wheel, the machine head rotates Cutting in seconds easily and with little effort around the pipe with Simultaneous or seperate cutting and beveling a constant speed. Increased productivity
