Disclosed are a method, an extruder and an injection molding machine for manufacturing a clamping ring, solving problems that products produced by an extrusion method needs to be processed in two steps. The key point of technical solutions lie in a molding step of acting on a pipe member in a plastic melt state via a molding die set, to form a clamping ring from the pipe member; an injection mold injects plastic materials having memory properties through an injection gate to form a pipe member in the molding cavity, the pipe member comprises a clamping ring and a sealing film provided on one end of the clamping ring, the hydraulic mechanism drives a molding cutter to cut out a joint of the sealing film and the clamping ring in a plastic melt state, thereby a limit end is formed at one end of the clamping ring.

An apparatus and method for joining pipes includes a plate for melting mating surfaces of the pipes to be joined. Additionally, the apparatus utilizes a vacuum in order to push the first and second pipes together in lieu of hand or mechanical pressure which may be inconsistent. Additionally, the vacuum allows the pipes to be joined to settle on each other in order to create a pressure about a periphery of the end of the pipe being joined to the other pipe. The consistent pressure creates a very strong joint between the first and second pipes.

A pipe processing apparatus, for forming branches on pipes made of thermoplastic material, including a base adapted to be fastened to the outer wall of a pipe and a supporting structure which extends from the base; a support member is slidingly associated with the supporting structure and is adapted to receive an interchangeable processing/handling means configured to interact with the pipe; the apparatus also includes a movement means which engages the support member in order to move it on command along a processing axis. The supporting structure includes a single elongated structural element.

A polymer pipe has a length between a first end and a second end. The length and the first end have a first diameter and the second end is a belled end having a second diameter larger than the first diameter. An insert device is received or pre-installed within the second end and has an annular body with a seal part coupled to the annular body and a spline groove formed in the annular body and facing radially inward. Another polymer pipe is inserted in the belled end to form a pipe joint assembly and has a mating spline groove on the outer surface. The spline groove and mating spline groove axially align and receive a spline therein to axially interlock the two polymer pipes to form a pipe joint assembly.
