PIPE CUTTING APPARATUS
The present disclosure provides an apparatus for removing material from an internal surface of a pipe. The apparatus comprises a low-power cutting tool for insertion into the pipe and configured to remove material from an internal surface of the pipe. The cutting tool comprises a housing for insertion within the pipe, a cutting head extending from the housing and a cutting tip for machining the internal surface of the pipe in a machining operation when the cutting tool is inserted into the pipe, and one or more actuators for driving the cutting tip. The apparatus further comprises one or more processors, and a computer-readable memory storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, control the one or more actuators to cause the cutting tip to machine the internal surface of the pipe, such that the cutting tool is maintained in a low-power configuration.
Developable and collapsable external cutting or gripping mechanism
A hollow rod developable actuator tool including a cylinder defining the outer circumference of the hollow rod, a first tool mechanism, and a second tool mechanism. The hollow rod developable actuator tool transitions from a first closed state wherein the first tool mechanism and second tool mechanism are contained entirely within the outer circumference of the hollow rod to a second open state wherein the first tool mechanism and second tool mechanism extent outside the outer circumference of the hollow rod.
