Flying Cut-Off to cut tubes or pipes at high speed

The term ‘flying’ indicates that the tubes are moving continuously through the process. The flying cut-off process involves a cutting mechanism that is synchronized with the speed of the moving tube. As the tube moves along the production line, the cutting mechanism rapidly and precisely cuts the tube at the desired length.

Advantages of Flying Cut-Off to cut tubes or pipes

  • High-speed and continuous production
  • Minimizes downtime as cutting occurs without stopping the production line
  • Precision in cutting lengths is achievable
