SIGMA 630 The SIGMA 630 is an electric workshop band saw machine for plastic pipes up to Ø 630 mm. The machine is supplied with a band saw, and two pipe fixing tables (on which we find the slot for fixing the pipes), one of them movable. The clamping system consists of a belt and a jack tightener. Thanks to its design, the operator can establish different cut inclination degrees up to a maximum of 67,5, thus having the required pipe sectors used to fabricate fittings (bends, wyes, tees and crosses) with the ALFA fittings machines. - Band saw machine with a standard blade and 1 spare blade.

SIGMA 1600 PRO SIGMA 1600 PRO Powered sliding rollers system (for the pipes) The SIGMA 1600 PRO is an electrohydraulic workshop band saw machine for plastic pipes up to Ø1600 mm. The SIGMA 1600 PRO was specially designed to perform easy cuts with a wide range of inclinations, therefore becoming the ideal tool to use with the ALFA fittings machines for the construction of special fittings (bends, wyes, tees and crosses), by joining pipe segments. Thanks to the PLC system, the operator can set in the exact cutting lengths and angles with the highest precision, these data being displayed during the entire operation, making it a lot easier for the operator. Certain angles, like 45, are automatically reached, which drastically reduces the setting time. A control device immediately stops the cutting operation, whenever the operator sets in a wrong inclination (angle), for which the blade risks to strike against the pipe housing bench. Composed of: - a pipe housing bench complete with powered sliding rollers; - a rotary hydraulic arm, with a universal pipe blocking that can easily clamp pipe bars as well as short pipe sectors (segments); - an arm with blade block band arc (belt type) with adjustable speed feed on recirculating ball guides, able to rotate on a rail system, in order to perform the various cut inclinations (angles); - a continuous control blade guide telescopic system, to reduce to the minimum the blade vibration, no matter which is the pipe diameter and/or thickness being cut; - a safety pilot cabin with guards for greater operator safety, where the control panel is placed; - an easy-use control panel, thanks to the simplified graphics display. The control panel has a pipe clamping pressure regulator, pipe/blade speed velocity regulators, and an inclination degree and movement reading display; - an auxiliary control panel placed at front, in order to deskill feed and clamping operations whenever pipe dimensions limit the operator visibility. - Band saw machine complete with an auxiliary bench to cut welded pipe sectors (segments) and support kit for the pipe sectors (to prevent them from being damaged).

ROLLERS This device is essential for supporting the pipes while they are being welded with the DELTA machines. The rollers minimise pipe friction and drag force no matter which is the construction site condition. This series features three different models: LIGHTWEIGHT ROLLER UNIT which can sustain pipes up to Ø 315 mm. Its particular structure allows the operator to adjust the height, and makes it easier to put it/remove it from under the pipe; 560 ROLLER UNIT which can sustain pipes up to Ø 560 mm. With the help of the hydraulic jacks, this roller can be adjusted in height, and since the structure is divided in two parts, its width can also be adjusted; 1600 ROLLER UNIT with a working range up to Ø 1600 mm and a structure/features similar to the 560 version.
