Detailed Information

What the machine does

When two round tubes meet in a T or angled welded joint, one tube end must first be shaped to the OD of the other (a saddle or fishmouth notch) so the weld gap is small and the bead even. The notching machine mills that notch with a form cutter sized to the mating tube.

Features

  • Horizontal layout, easy loading of long tubes.
  • Hydraulic clamping and hydraulic feed for a smooth cut.
  • Cutter diameter and joint angle set to the product; change the cutter to change tube size.
  • Steel, stainless and aluminum tube.

Typical parts

Furniture frames, chair cross rails, motorcycle racks and crash bars, fitness equipment, playground equipment, garden tool and hammer handles, railings and brackets.

With other TONG DA machines

Notching usually sits on the same line as roll cutting, punching, flattening and end closing; TONG DA can plan them together, or process small volumes under contract.

How to start

Send tube OD × wall × material, the mating tube OD and joint angle, and quantity; TONG DA trial-cuts and replies.
