Process pipe and CHS components
directly from 3D CAD models
Advanced pipe cutting system
Pipe and Circular Hollow Section (CHS) can easily be cut on the Metaltek XB1200. Simply import the 3D models into the controller and they will be nested into their appropriate materials and incorporated into the job queue. Cutting processes are completely automated. If you can draw it then the XB1200 can cut it.
Cut directly from 3D Models
STL files can be exported from almost all 3D CAD programs. Simply open them and cut. Bevels and weld preps are supported. Part numbers can be automatically etched.
NC1/DSTV Compatible
Pipe files can be cut from NC1 files exported from steel detailing software. (Note some industry software can produce poor quality NC1 files for pipe)
DXF file support
2D CAD pipe developments can be cut directly through the import of DXF files. (Correct formatting is required). Supports etching of part numbers etc.
Pipe rotation is fixed
Because the pipe is always clamped by one of the jaws, there is no risk of rotation or losing alignment during cutting.
Heavy duty capability
Heavy duty pipe can be processed up to 40mm wall thickness with up to 45 degree bevels.
DXF file support
2D CAD pipe developments can be cut directly through the import of DXF files. (Correct formatting is required)
