Schaumburg, IL – (October 12, 2011) Powered with proprietary conversational software, Maruhide’s Pipe Coaster requires the bare minimum of operator involvement to achieve extremely precise and highly productive pipe cutting.
Maruhide’s software imports and converts 3D CAD files and, based upon the pipe’s basic dimensions such as diameter and wall thickness, it calculates the exact geometries for the cut. The software then commands the machine movements. It cuts it right, the first time.
The Maruhide can reduce downtime through each step, from planning to production. With no need for time-consuming layout and programming steps, round or square pipe can be easily and precisely cut. Maruhide’s nesting software further enhances the Coaster’s performance with the ability to cut multiple parts out of a single pipe.
The family of Maruhide Pipe Coasters includes 15 models, some with seven (7) controllable axes (two more than most pipe fabricators) that can cut pipe up to 54” in diameter with a 2” wall. Column cutting machines are also available.
Maruhide’s Pipe Coasters are in use across the globe in a growing number of industries where pipe cutting accuracy and performance are crucial, including steel structures, pressure vessels, oil field applications, and shipbuilding.
