• ElectroChemical Grinding machine (ECG)

High performances with I.D. punch and O.D. dies – this process offers incomparable advantages compared to any other cutting device!

• high speed up to 5000 parts/hour
• no material loss
• no burrs
• no distortion
• tool resharpening only after 150-200 000 cuts

– More –

Up to 5000 cuts per hour on one tube cutting machine !

The dual blade shearing method provides fast cutting without loss for tubes from 0.125“ to 5.00“ diameter (3 – 127mm) and cuts square tubes from 0.50“ to 2.125“ (12,7 – 54mm).

The automatic cutting machine can cut tube up to 120“ length (3000mm) from coil or stick tubes.

Dual blade shear cutting machine operates a distortion-free and burr-free cut-off on tubes in carbon steels, 400 series stainless steel and most alloys and non ferrous materials.

Our range of tube cutting machines using this technology lets you choose the perfect model for your needs. Manual feed as well as complete automation are offered, depending on volumes and productivity you look for.

• High Production – High Speed Cut-Off – Fully Automatic
• Lowest Total Cost of Operation
• Quick Tool Change
• Most Flexible for a variety of tube profiles
• Programmable Tube Cutting Stroke from Operator Panel
• Integrate with secondary chamfering or de-burring
• Integrated loader and pusher assembly
• Carbon Steels, 400 series stainless steel tubes, HSLA, most alloys and non-Ferrous

 

The finest burr-free cutoff for precision appliances

ElectroChemical Grinding Process (ECG) produce stress-free and burr-free tube cutting without heat or other metallurgical damage caused by mechanical grinding. This eliminates totally the need for secondary machining operations.
The high quality of the burr-free and stress-free cutting by ECG makes it the best choice for metalworking applications that are too difficult or time-consuming for traditional mechanical methods and for tube materials that are subject to heat damage.

Even when compared to non-traditional tube cutting technologies (laser, water-jet, Wire EDM…), ElectroChemical Grinding (ECG) is often a more accurate, more fast and more economic process. For instance, it is the best tube cutting machine when it comes to manufacture medical syringe needles.
Almost any conductive metal tubes can be cut with ElectroChemical Grinding (ECG) : Steel, Aluminum, Copper , Stainless Steels, Inconel and Hastelloy, Nickel/Titanium, Cobalt alloys, Amorphous metals, Berilium, Berilium Copper, Iridium Neodymium Iron Boron, Titanium, Nickel/Titanium, Nitinol, Powdered Metals, Rene 41, Rhenium, Rhodium, Stelllite, Vitalium, Zirconium and Tungsten.

Hanssen provides actually 1 ECG Tube Cutting Machine with Automatic Cutoff and 1 Manual Tube Cutoff Machine.

What are the advantages of Electrochemical Grinding (ECG)

• Improved wheel life
• Burr free
• No work hardening
• Stress free
• Better finish
• No cracking
• Less frequent wheel dressing
• No metallurgical damage from heat
• Faster for tough materials
• No wheel loading or glazing
• More precise tolerances

Abrasive tube cutting with electro-chemical process : some technical facts

The Electro–chemical abrasive cutting process is the most advanced technology to cut small diameter tubes or bars without any burr at high speed (up to 10 000parts/hour) and with high precision of 1/100mm for aeronautical or medical applications.
