Heavy Industrial SPM
Model: NCT-SPM-3
Comprehensive Machine Overview
Manufactured at the National Cutting Tools works in Ludhiana, Punjab, the Scaffolding Machine is optimized for <p>The Scaffolding Machine by National Cutting Tools is an integrated special-purpose fabrication machine designed for multi-operation processing of structural steel tubes used in modular scaffolding systems. In scaffolding manufacturing, raw 48.3 mm nominal OD pipe requires multiple sequential operations: square cut-off, internal/external burr removal, end reduction (swaging or spigotting), and pin hole punching; this machine combines key processing stages on a single coordinated bed.</p>.
<p>Constructed on a heavy fabricated IS 2062 steel base, the machine utilizes high-force hydraulic forming cylinders and precision toolholders to prepare tube ends for Cuplock spigot pins, Ringlock ledger connectors, or telescopic prop collars. By consolidating multiple fabrication steps, the machine cuts component handling time, eliminates inter-station storage, and maintains axial concentricity across high-volume production batches.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Multi-Function Tube End Preparation:</strong> Consolidates tube swaging, end-facing, and expansion operations on standard 48.3 mm scaffold pipes.</li>
<li><strong>Heavy Hydraulic Clamping & Forming Force:</strong> High-tonnage hydraulic cylinders form tube ends cold without splitting or wall thinning.</li>
<li><strong>Interchangeable Quick-Change Tooling:</strong> Hardened alloy steel forming dies allow fast changeovers between spigot forming, flaring, and flattening.</li>
<li><strong>High Cycle Efficiency:</strong> Completes tube end forming and punching operations in under 12 seconds per tube end.</li>
<li><strong>Heavy Welded Structural Frame:</strong> Stress-relieved steel chassis maintains tooling alignment under continuous multi-shift production.</li>
<li><strong>Integrated Operator Safety Controls:</strong> Dual-hand push-button controls and safety guard enclosures protect operator hands during hydraulic strokes.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Applications</h3>
<ul>
<li>Manufacturing swaged spigots on Cuplock and Ringlock vertical standards</li>
<li>End flattening and hole punching for scaffolding diagonal braces</li>
<li>Pipe expansion and collar preparation for adjustable steel props</li>
<li>High-output modular scaffolding component production plants</li>
</ul>
<p>Manufactured and proof-tested at the National Cutting Tools plant in Ludhiana, Punjab. Every unit is tested with customer-supplied pipe samples to verify dimensional tolerances before dispatch.</p>
