Pipe-cutting machines have been used in many fields. Recently, an automatic pipe-cutting machine that uses magnet has born developed. In this paper, a magnetic-type automatic pipe-cutting machine that attaches itself and performs unmanned cutting process is proposed. It is designed that there is a room at the bottom of its body to contain a magnet. And it uses magnetic force between the magnet and the pipe surface to prevent slip and to attach the machine to the pipe against gravity. Also the magnetic force is adjustable by changing the gap between the magnet and the pipe. This machine is, however, necessary to control cutting velocity for the elevation of work efficiency and the adjustable faculties. During pipe cutting process, the gravity acting on the pipe-cutting machine widely varies. That is, the cutting machine gets fast when moving from the top to the bottom of the pipe and slow when moving from the bottom to the top. Actually the system is kind of a non-linear system where the gravity is function of climbing angle of the cutting machine along the pipe. Especially jerking motion is critical. Therefore, authors design the non-linear controller that estimates the current position of the machine along the pipe and compensates the effect of gravity in this paper. It receives the feed back signal from the encoder.

In this paper, an automatic pipe-cutting machine that uses magnet to attach itself to pipe and performs unmanned cutting process is proposed. The machine uses magnetic force to prevent slip and to attach the machine to the pipe against gravity. The magnetic force is adjustable by changing the gap between the magnet and the pipe. During pipe cutting process, the gravity acting on the pipe-cutting machine widely varies nonlinearly where the gravity is function of climbing angle of the cutting machine along the pipe. The cutting quality is deteriorated with irregular cutting speed. It is necessary to maintain constant cutting speed to obtain good cutting quality ...

In this paper, a magnet-type automatic pipe cutting machine that binds itself to the surface of the pipe using magnetic force and executes unmanned cutting process is proposed. During pipe cutting process when the machine moves around the pipe laid vertical to the gravitational field, the gravity acting on the pipe cutting machine widely varies as the position of the machine varies. That is, with same driving force from the driving motor the cutting machine moves faster when it climbs down the surface of the pipe and moves slower when it climbs up to the top of the pipe. To maintain a constant velocity of the pipe cutting machine and improve the cutting quality, the authors adopted a conventional PID controller with a feedforward effort designed based on the encoder measurement of the driving motor. It is, however, impossible for the encoder at the motor to measure the absolute position and consequently the absolute velocity of the cutting machine in the case where the slip between the surface of the pipe and wheel of the cutting machine is not negligible. As an attempt to obtain a better estimation of the absolution angular position/velocity of the machine the authors proposes the use of the MEMS-type accelerometer which can measure static acceleration as well as dynamic acceleration. The estimated angular velocity of the cutting machine using the MEMS-type accelerometer measurement is experimentally obtained and it indicates the significant slipping of the machine during the cutting process.

This study presents the selection of cutting conditions in high speed pipe cutting machine for the better quality. A high speed pipe cutting machine which uses a rotary knife can make good quality products in short time. But, the machine is much sensitive by cutting conditions because of the complicated mechanism. In this reason, many experiments for cutting condition selection are necessary to improve quality of production. This study carried out cutting experiments with the three factors that are cutting RPM, cutting force and pooling force. 2-dimensional profile measuring instrument is used to measure which is represented by ${\Delta}h$, a sum of burr and collapse height. The effects of factors are analyzed by using MINITAB, the commercial software.

The pipe-cutting machine developed in this study is a portable device used to cut a steel pipe. The machine, which is attached to the steel pipe by magnetic force, is moving around the pip e using four wheels. It also works for straight cutting of a steel plate. For the higher precision and labor time reduction, the automation of a pipe-cutting process is needed. However, it is not easily achieved because of vibrations and the loss of track. It is also found that the problems of the automation arise from the coupling of the functional requirements for the pipe-cutting machine. So, it is very difficult io solve the problems by a conventional design method. To overcome the difficulties the new design process for the pipe-cutting machine is established by axiomatic approach in this paper. Based on the Independence Axiom design process, a new product is designed and manufactured. Finally, it is verified by experiments that the performance of the automatic pipe-cutting machine is improved

This study presents development of a multi-way high speed pipe cutting machine to improve production rate of pipe cut pans. In this paper, structural and modal analysis for the developed machine is carried out to check safety of the machine design. The analysis is carried out by FEM simulation using the commercial software, CATIA V5. The machine is modeled by placing proper shell and solid finite elements. The final results of analysis are applied to the design of multi-way high speed pipe cutting machine and the machine is successfully developed.

CNC 3축 파이프 형상절단기의 성능은 이송계의 위치결정 정밀도와 공작물의 가공 정밀도를 측정하고 검증함으로써 평가되었다. 위치결정 정밀도는 PLC의 모션 컨트롤러에 의하여 구동된 이송 거리와 레이저 간섭계를 이용 한 실제 이송 거리를 측정 비교하여 오차를 확인하였다. 그리고 가공 정밀도는 절단된 공작물을 스캐닝하고 3D 모델링하여 가공형상을 확보하고, 절단궤적에 해당하는 CL 데이터와 비교하여 오차를 확인하였다.

The modern industry requires the precision machining as well as the high productivity. The machine tool structure should be evaluated in aspects such as durability, static stability, precision rate and the dynamic stability which is one of the most critical characteristics in determining the magnitude of vibrations. In this study, the dynamic properties of a pipe cutting machine were investigated to analyze the structural vibrations of the machine, and further to improve the structural stability and precision machining. Frequency response test and computer simulation have been utilized for the analysis and the design alterations. And the result shows that proposed design alterations can reduce the vibrations of the machine substantially.

절단 파워 예측은 가공 툴 또는 공작기계의 최적 설계를 가능하게 하므로 기술 개발에 소요되는 시간과 비용을 줄일 수 있다. 이러한 이유로 정확한 절단파워 예측은 설계과정에서 매우 중요한 부분이다. 본 연구에서는 파이프 절단 파워를 이론적으로 예측하고 실험을 통해 검증한다. 우선, slotting 절단 파워 계산식을 사용하여 파이프의 절단 파워를 예측한다. 다음으로 파이프 절단기로 파이프를 절단하는 실험을 진행하며, 파이프를 절단하는 동안 모터에서 소비하는 파워를 embedded 소프트웨어인 Labview로 측정한다. 그리고 이론으로 계산한 절단파워와 실험으로 측정한 절단파워를 비교하여 정확성을 검증한다. 본 연구에서 사용한 파이프의 재질은 SUS304와 AL6N01이다. 그리고 본 연구에서는 실험을 통해 AL6N01 재질의 specific power 값을 구하였으며 추후 이 재질의 절단 및 절삭파워를 예측하고 최적의 가공기 및 툴을 설계하는데 이 값을 활용할 수 있다.
