Steel pipe cutter Trav-L-Cutter® SD

orbitalhydraulic

Wachs Trav-L-Cutter, or "Travel Cutter," is a portable inline pipe and pipeline cold cutting and beveling milling machine with 6in-72in O.D. (DN150–1800) on most pipe and vessel materials and schedules (optional drive chain sections required for OD greater than 48in). Secured to the pipe by a special mounting/drive chain, the Trav-L-Cutter drives itself around the pipe as it simultaneously cuts and bevels, providing a machined surface ready for welding. It's designed for severing and beveling all common pipe materials, wall thicknesses and sizes. Now in its fourth generation, Wachs newly updated Trav-L-Cutter Super Duty, or SD, is reengineered with improved performance to make it more durable, more controllable, and more powerful. While externally identical to the previous model apart from its red top covers, it features new internals designed to make a tough machine tool even tougher. All New Internals All new internal components include, on the drive side, an improved feed drive mechanism with enhanced feed control, greater fluid capacity, cast in cooling fins, a heavy duty clutch mechanism, and revised chain drive sprockets. These components lower the previously unused high drive speeds in favor of better real world performance. On the spindle cutting side, a totally redesigned spindle gearbox offers far greater oil and cooling capacity. It uses cast in cooling fins with enlarged oil expansion chambers, finished in a heat dissipating coating. These new components, coupled with newly specified synthetic oils, greatly extend the machines duty cycle, particularly in extreme, high heat operating environments such as the desert.
