Orbimatic UK has added the Georg Fischer RPG 1.5B tube end preparation machine to its range The RPG 1.5B is a cordless tube end squaring machine which can be used to produce a perfect weld preparation on tubes from 3 to 38.1mm outside diameter
The RPG 1.5B uses a carbide cutting tip, which is rotated and introduced to the tube end via a micrometer control to allow accurate material removal.
This combination ensures that tube ends are left perfectly square and with no burrs.
The precise profile of the carbide cutting bit ensures that the swarf produced curls away from tube face externally, which allows the RPG 1.5B to be used with electro-polished tubes.
A range of collets and tools allow the RPG 1.5B to be used for most applications including the facing and reclaiming of used micro-fittings.
As the PRG 1.5B is cordless it is ideal for use in clean rooms and clean working areas.
