Heavy Industrial SPM
Model: NCT-SPM-87
Comprehensive Machine Overview
The Automatic Nipple Threading & Cutting Machine is a dedicated industrial system engineered by National Cutting Tools for <p>The Automatic Nipple Threading & Cutting Machine by National Cutting Tools is an integrated production machine tool engineered for automated, continuous manufacturing of short threaded pipe nipples from raw pipe stock. In traditional workshops, cutting pipe to length and threading both ends requires three separate machine setups and multiple operators; this specialized automated machine combines cutting, chamfering, and dual-end threading in a continuous automated workflow.</p>.
<p>Accommodating pipe sizes from 1/2" up to 2" nominal bore in lengths from 50 mm (close nipples) up to 300 mm, the machine feeds the pipe, cuts the blank with a cold saw or parting tool, chamfers the pipe ends, and threads both ends using high-speed tangential chaser die heads. The automated cycle delivers completed, leak-tight pipe nipples at rates up to 150 to 300 pieces per hour with uniform BSPT or NPT threads.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Integrated Cut & Thread Process:</strong> Combines parting-off, end facing, and dual-end threading in an automated multi-station cycle.</li>
<li><strong>High Production Output:</strong> Produces 150 to 300 finished pipe nipples per hour, replacing three conventional manual machines.</li>
<li><strong>Tangential Chaser Die Heads:</strong> Precision-ground HSS tangential chasers cut standard BSPT or NPT threads with long tool life between regrinds.</li>
<li><strong>Pneumatic Clamping & Indexing:</strong> Heavy pneumatic chucks grip pipe securely and transfer workpieces smoothly between stations.</li>
<li><strong>PLC Controlled Automation:</strong> Touchscreen HMI allows programming nipple length, thread length, cycle speed, and total batch count.</li>
<li><strong>Automated Swarf & Part Separation:</strong> Finished nipples are discharged via gravity chute while cutting chips drop into a separated collection bin.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Applications</h3>
<ul>
<li>Mass production of GI and black steel threaded pipe nipples for plumbing fittings</li>
<li>Fire protection sprinkler system connector nipples</li>
<li>Gas and petroleum pipe fitting manufacturing</li>
<li>Scaffolding prop threaded connector sleeve fabrication</li>
</ul>
<p>Designed and built at the National Cutting Tools manufacturing works in Ludhiana, Punjab. Fully run off with continuous multi-piece production testing on client pipe stock before export crating.</p>

Automatic Nipple Threading & Cutting Machine Works QA & Export Packaging Protocol
✓ Thread Geometry & Pitch Gauge Verification Protocol
- • Thread Pitch & Gauge Inspection: Sample threads cut or rolled on bar/pipe stock verified with calibrated Go / No-Go thread ring and plug gauges (IS 554 / ISO 7 / IS 16172).
- • Chaser / Roll Die Parallelism: Die head trip mechanism and roll die spacing aligned within 0.02 mm under full cutting and forming torque.
- • All-Geared Headstock Burn-In: 48-hour continuous trial of all spindle speeds and coolant circulation under loaded cutting conditions to ensure thermal stability.
- • Thread Sample Sign-Off: Physical threaded test samples preserved and HD video of threading cycle sent for buyer approval before packing.
Precision Threading Machine Transit Protection
- • Die & Lead Screw Wax Coating: Chasers, thread rolls, vice jaws, and lead screws coated with heavy-viscosity protective rust-preventive petroleum wax.
- • Carriage Mechanical Locks: Workpiece carriage and rack gear secured to prevent movement and shock during sea transit.
- • Cabinet Desiccant Packs: Hermetically sealed silica gel canisters placed inside control enclosures to prevent condensation.
- • ISPM-15 Heat-Treated Crating: Heavy wooden box packaging compliant with international maritime phytosanitary export standards.
