Pipe/Tube Straightening
Cross Roll Type

GMT 6/10 DRIVE CROSS ROLL tube straightening machines are designed to handle tubes of outer diameter from 6 mm to 170 mm in different models. These machines are based on the well proven rotary pressure and deflection principle of straightening, which gives a very high degree of straightening ranging from 1 mm to 0.3 mm in 1000 mm.

The rolls are mounted in pairs and are driven by two identical motors through totally enclosed gear boxes and box and universal spindle couplings.

Features
  • 6/10 work rolls arranged in pairs.
  • Two identical motors driving top and bottom rolls, fixed/variable speed.
  • The machine can easily and quickly be set when changing from one size of tube to another.
  • Tube can be straightened accurately without surface blemishes.
  • As the tube is retained between each pair of rolls, no guides are required to control the pass of the tube.
  • Machines can be supplied with manual, semi-automatic and automatic handling systems.
  • Machines can be supplied with pressure sensing units.
