Sica specific system that uses a revolutionary way to cut and chamfer plastic pipes without production of chips and dust, eliminating completely any inconvenience arising from creation of dust material when cutting and/or chamfering. Problems such as collection, storage and removal are completely eliminated.
Less maintenance needs due to the complete absence of dust/swarf contaminants.
Universal chamfer unit nearly indestructible: totoal cost of ownership drastically reduced thanks to the absence of worn cutters needing resharpening.
Low noise level of machine (no fans and cutting tools in motion)
Superior quality of production in terms of roughness and surface regularity.
Electrical synchronization and CNC Control. In addition to the automatic regulation of the carriage speed when extrusion speed changes, the logic control enables "Cutting on the fly" (Sica patent), increasing the number of possible cut to be performed and the maximum sustainable velocity.

BS/R BELLING MACHINES FOR PIPES, FITTINGS, DOUBLE-SOCKETS

Semiautomatic belling machines for forming solvent-cement sockets or sockets with gasket seats on rigid pipes and fittings in ABS, PVC and PP

Advantages and key features:

High productivity and low production costs.
Long-term quality of socket, comparable to the quality achieved with automatic models.
Belling of pipes, fittings and double sockets (pass through and otherwise) of any shape.
Forming system with mechanical mandrel with expandable inserts and external pressure (BS/R 500), with solvent cement mandrel, or by air blowing. Vacuum action in the Rieber cycle (BSR/F 500).
Single oven or multiple ovens. With this option, any production requirements can be met.
Version available for Rieber socket processing (BSR/F 500).
Adjustable ovens. Facilitate the job of heating special pieces (for BSR 500 and BSR/F 500 only).
Low production and maintenance costs.
Possibility of adjusting the machine in two working positions (horizontal and vertical) in relation to different production needs: the machine can process pipes with length up to 6 m (BSR 200).

Product category: Equipment for strapping

DOUBLE REEL STRAP COILERS: TECHNOCOIL

Automatic coilers with two reel structure for flexible smooth and corrugated PVC, PE and PP pipes. Packaging with heat-sealed PP straps.

Advantages and key features:

Double reel that ensures high production speeds and reliability.
Pipe guide unit completely motorized. The pipe is guided on the reel with instantaneous positioning control on three orthogonal directions. This ensures positioning regularity of the spiral and compactness of the coils.
Efficient coiling action. Thanks to the haul-off installed on the pipe guide, the pipe is continually tensioned throughout the packaging cycle. This prevents the pipe ovalization during the coiling process.
Optional second strapping unit for improved production rate.
Uninterrupted work cycle with no downtime. This is made possible by the two fastening stations, which work independently.
Reduced setup time thanks to with automatic adjustments, which allows a considerable time savings for format change.
Electro-pneumatic strapping unit with electronic control of strap tension. The strap management system self-adapts to the coil dimensions
Motorized strapping unit movement with torque control. Avoids signs or dents on the outer surface of the coils.
Front coil unloading on a single axis in the Plus version, which permits optimal management of the successive packing phases.
Sturdy mechanical frame.
Compact footprint compared with maximum product dimensions.

Product category: Equipment for palletizing

PALLETISER FOR PIPE PACKS ON CARTS: MULTIPALLET

Automatic palletizing unit for PVC, PE and PP pipe packs made by automatic packaging line (Multipack type).

Advantages and key features:

Automatic packaging of preformed pipe packs.
Pallets are formed on a few carriages and wooden bars automatically separating the packs' levels.
Pipe packs are picked up and rotated from the automatic production line (Multipack type).
Automatic storage for wooden packs separators. Wooden separators between the packs creates a more stable final pallet more stable and prevents the overlapping sockets from touching and deforming.
Pallet layout programmable via the control panel based on the packs dimensions and on the specific needs of the customers.
Completely automated extrusion line and reduced management costs.
