High Performance Tube Cutting Systems Alpha Flying Shear

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the Alpha series of high-speed flying shears by Thermatool, designed for efficient and precise tube cutting. These systems cater to the increasing demand for high tensile strength tube and pipe production, offering cost-effective and reliable solutions.
Specifications: The Alpha Flying Shears can handle tube diameters from 10mm to 127mm and wall thicknesses from 0.7mm to 6.4mm. They achieve cut-off accuracy of ±1mm at cycle rates up to 240m/min.
Cutting Process: The system reduces manufacturing steps by enabling cut-to-length on the mill, minimizing processing costs. It features a motion control system for precision and repeatability.
Dieset Information: Alpha Diesets are made from high-quality materials, offering reduced weight, quick-change tooling, automatic lubrication, and overload protection. Two types are available: Double Cut Dieset for dimple-free shearing and Single Cut Dieset for non-dimple-free requirements.
Equipment Tooling: Thermatool provides high-quality blades and jaws, with ATS2 blade material for increased life on carbon and stainless steels. Proper installation and setup are crucial for optimized shearing.
Alpha Shear Jaw Sets: These are available for tubes with diameters from 10mm to 127mm, ensuring accurate clamping during high-speed cutting. They are heat-treated for wear resistance and available for various tube shapes.
Model Specifications: The document lists models with varying maximum diameters, wall thicknesses, line speeds, and cut lengths, highlighting their capabilities.
Alpha Shear Blades: Horizontal and vertical blades are available, optimized through solid edge modeling and special treatments for enhanced life and cut quality.
Service & Support: Thermatool offers 24-hour service support, with global presence for fast on-site servicing. They provide recommended spares lists for efficient maintenance.
