Although the stainless steel is difficult to cut materials, but its characteristics are not very strong, and sticky, mainly the chip is easy to stick to the tool, so classified as difficult to cut materials. The following list of common steel pipe cutting method for your reference, according to their actual situation to make the most suitable for your choice.

1. Flame cutting
The use of gas cutting basically does not work. The tube's mouth is definitely discolored,Cutting Method of Thin-walled Stainless Steel Tube Articles and the melting point of the chromium-nickel stainless steel, aluminum and aluminum alloys is higher than the melting point of the material itself, and thus can not be cut by oxygen.

2. Carbon arc gouging
Carbon arc gouging means a method of melting a metal by using a graphite rod or an arc generated between the carbon rod and the workpiece and blowing it with compressed air to achieve the processing of the trench on the metal surface. Carbon arc has smoke, dust pollution and arc radiation. The inner wall with a large number of molten metal residue after cooling, remove the difficulties.

3. Wire cutting
The use of wire cutting fast wire, to meet the quality requirements of the incision. But should pay attention to tube end line after cutting will change the color, need to polished and polished. Slow and unbearable, small production can be considered. Outreach processing, no investment. Slow, small batch.

4. Grinding wheel cutting machine (with automatic steel pipe end glitch removal machine)
With ordinary grinding wheel cutting machine left after the burr and hanging flash, with the use of automatic stainless steel tube end burr cleaning machine to achieve a very good use of the results, low cost, but the grinding wheel consumption is a bit large, suitable for volume Finds.ithers.raint compositions.ither ...... Avt.

5. Instrument lathe
Instrument lathe for cutting very thin wall of stainless steel pipe (wall thickness 0.3 ~ 0.4mm), recommended the use of high quality white steel or front steel tool, although the purchase cost is higher, but more durable, the cut is very smooth. This way a low degree of automation, labor intensity. After the automatic conversion of instrument lathe or automatic lathe efficiency greatly improved, but six meters long steel pipe high-speed rotation problem, will damage the thin-walled steel pipe.

6. Automatic steel pipe peeling machine
Similar to automatic instrument lathe, but the tool rotation and feed, pipe does not move, to solve the ultra-long steel pipe rotation caused by the inconvenience. Can be used two knives at the same time processing of cutting, you can achieve a knife cut off, while another knife to amend the steel pipe section. Processing efficiency, the use of carbide cutting tools, grinding knife is very convenient, in the ordinary grinding machine can be sharpening, tool durability is high. Automatic realization of the steel pipe feeding, length, clamping, tool feed, release and other functions, and automatically cycle.

7. Plasma cutting
Automatic plasma cutting machine, fast, but the wall with a large number of molten metal residue after cooling, clean up a lot of trouble. Most of the cutting of the plasma should be hot, so the tube port must be discoloration, parameter adjustment is more difficult, improper use easily lead to poor incision quality.

8. Water knife
Waterjet cutting quality is good, but the equipment is expensive, the use of electricity supplies and other high cost, waterjet cutting stainless steel is not the best, because the stainless steel is sticky.

9. Laser
Speed, good quality, expensive equipment, suitable for large-scale large capital of enterprises, such as your business bigger and stronger, one of the necessary equipment.
