The disclosure discloses a blanking machine and a method for blanking a bar or pipe material. The blanking machine includes a blanking assembly and a plurality of driving members. The blanking assembly includes a housing, a plurality of pairs of slide rails, and a plurality of striking blocks. The housing defines a plurality of radially distributed grooves. The pairs of slide rails are respectively installed in the grooves. The striking blocks are respectively slidably installed on the pairs of slide rails. The driving members are configured to respectively drive the striking blocks to reciprocate along the slide rails to strike a material to be processed.

A hand operated cutting tool (200) for pipes or tubes includes a housing (202). The housing (202) defining at least one first opening (204) to receive an object (210) to perform a first cutting action, and a second opening (206) which is adapted to perform a second cutting action. The first opening (204) includes a longitudinal axis (A-A1) and the second opening (206) include a longitudinal axis (X-X′). The longitudinal axis (A-A1) and the longitudinal axis (X-X′) include an angle (Z) therebetween that is unequal to 0 degree. And, one or more cutting blades (208, 502) are operatively coupled to the first opening (204) and the second opening (206). The one or more cutting blades (208) is arranged such that it is performing both the first cutting action and the second cutting action.

A can cutting device that has a main body and a can support assembly coupled to the main body. The can support assembly has a shaft that extends along a longitudinal shaft axis, an eccentrically mounted mandrel that extends along a longitudinal mandrel axis parallel to the longitudinal shaft axis, and a cutter coupled to the main body having a cutting surface. The can is positionable in a mounted position such that the can is rotatable about a can axis of rotation, the cutting surface is positional to contact the portion of the can body supported by the mandrel at the cutting location, and when the cutting surface is in contact with the portion of the can body supported by the mandrel at the cutting location and the can is rotated about the can axis of rotation, the cutter cuts the portion of the can body at the cutting location.

A method is for cutting a tubular structure in the petrochemical industry, using a cutting tool having a non-rotatable cutting element and a reaction member opposite to the non-rotatable cutting element. The cutting tool is further configured for carrying out a translational cutting movement through the tubular structure. The method comprises: a) positioning the cutting tool in a first position exterior to the tubular structure; b) squeezing the tubular structure at the first position by activating a partial translational cutting movement of the non-rotatable cutting element to obtain a dented region in the tubular structure; c) positioning the cutting tool in a second position exterior to the tubular structure, wherein the second position is displaced over a predefined distance compared to the first position, and d) cutting the tubular structure at the second position (P2) by activating a full translational cutting movement of the non-rotatable cutting element through the tubular structure.

A powered cutting tool for cutting tubular or cylindrical workpieces such as pipe is described. The cutting tool includes a base, an electric motor, a collection of rollers, a frame, a feedscrew, an auto cut wheel system, and a handle for rotating the feedscrew and adjusting the position of the auto cut wheel system relative to the rollers. In certain versions, the cutting tool includes torque-limiting provisions, to limit the amount of torque applied to the feedscrew. In certain versions, the cutting tool includes rollers and press wheels featuring non-metal outer surfaces.

In order to manufacture a bottle can while eliminating the need for cleaning/drying after a mouth portion formation step, a bottle can manufacturing apparatus includes a necking processing part for carrying out a necking process while rotating a can body having a bottomed cylindrical shape around a rotational axis during formation of a mouth portion in the can; and a trimming processing part for subjecting the upper end portion of the can to slit processing and carrying out trimming while rotating the can while moving the can around the rotational axis. A plurality of necking processing parts are arranged in sequence, and the trimming processing part is arranged in sequence with at least one of the necking processing parts.

In a system for automatically manufacturing a pipe spool, when information on a pipe spool is input to a control unit, manufacturing of a spool pipe by cutting an original pipe, processing of a spool pipe, processing of a connection member, manufacturing of a straight pipe spool by welding a spool pipe to a connection member, and manufacturing a three-dimensional spool by welding a straight pipe spool to the other straight pipe spool or a connection member may be automatically performed by a sensor, an automatic device or a robot included in each process and the control unit connected to each of the devices.

Transport system makes it possible to transport a pipe of any length and with the required quality to the location of the use of the pipe. The transport system for a pipe has a transport platform, a receptacle for the pipe, wherein the receptacle is configured in such a manner that the pipe may be received coiled on the receptacle, a drive, wherein the drive is configured in such a manner that the pipe may be conveyed by the drive in a transport direction, and a straightening device, wherein the straightening device is configured in such a manner that the pipe can be straightened with the straightening device. The receptacle, the drive and the straightening device are arranged on the transport platform in such a manner that the pipe may be drawn automatically from the receptacle and fed to the straightening device by the drive.
