Cutting sounds like the simplest step in a pipe line — until a cut goes out of square, burrs the bore, or wastes material at high line speed. The right plastic pipe cutting machine depends on the material, the wall thickness, and how fast the extruder is running. This guide walks through the main cutter…
Want to add automatic ring In SWR and sewage pipe production, the socket is only finished when the sealing ring is seated. That rubber ring — the elastomeric gasket that makes a push-fit joint watertight — has to sit evenly in the groove of every socket. Done by hand, it is slow, inconsistent, and a…
Every plastic pipe line lives or dies on tension control. The extruder pushes soft, hot polymer out of the die; something downstream has to pull it away at exactly the right speed, hold it straight, and never crush or mark it. That job belongs to the haul-off machine — the caterpillar unit that sets the…
Ring insertion is the step where a rubber sealing ring is fitted into a pipe socket after belling, so the finished joint seals against leaks. SICA automates it with RINGFIT, an automatic ring insertion device that places rubber rings onto SWR sockets immediately after socketing. How RINGFIT works Automating ring insertion removes a slow, error-prone…
SICA manufactures its plastic pipe cutting machine in India through SICA Plastic Machinery Pvt. Ltd., a Mumbai joint venture between SICA Italy (downstream pipe machinery since 1962) and Satellite Plastic Industries (European machinery service in India since 1984). The result is Indian-made machinery backed by Italian engineering and local after-sales support, spares and maintenance. SHARPSAW…
An automatic pipe packing machine replaces the manual job of counting, arranging and strapping finished pipe. SICA’s EASYPACK performs the full sequence in one machine: it counts the pipes, arranges them into a bundle, straps the bundle in three or four phases, and finally wraps it in LDPE film. What an automatic pipe packing line…
A pipe chamfering machine cuts a bevelled edge onto the end of a plastic pipe so it can be joined cleanly into a fitting or socket. In a downstream extrusion line, chamfering usually happens immediately after cutting — which is why SICA integrates both operations into a single machine, SHARPSAW. SHARPSAW handles HDPE, PPR, PVC…
Introduction HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) pipes are among the most widely used plastic pipes in India, serving applications from water supply and gas distribution to irrigation, telecom ducting, and industrial process piping. The quality and efficiency of an HDPE pipe extrusion line depends not only on the extruder but critically on the downstream equipment that follows…
