Product Details
The real efficiency bottleneck on jobsites is usually not single-cycle grooving speed, but equipment movement, setup alignment, manpower allocation, and short pipe handling. This integrated grooving machine combines the motor, grooving body, and cart structure. With a 1200W motor and 15 tons of grooving pressure, it helps reduce handling and coordination costs while making grooving faster, more stable, and more consistent.
Even for the same 6" pipe size, different materials and Schedule ratings affect groove forming conditions. Before use, confirm the pipe material, diameter, wall thickness, and coupling specification, then match the correct grooving roll and work setting to avoid inconsistent groove dimensions, poor joint sealing, or excessive equipment load.
Suitable for grooving stainless steel pipe, steel pipe, copper pipe, PVC pipe, and other pipe materials.
Provides powerful grooving pressure for fast, stable, and consistent groove forming.
Delivers sufficient power for high-intensity work and continuous jobsite operation.
The grooving body and motor are integrated with a cart-mounted design for easy movement and jobsite-friendly use.
Setup and operation can be completed by one person, saving manpower and improving jobsite efficiency.
Short pipes are easier to align during grooving, making operation smoother and improving safety.
Suitable for grooved coupling work in fire protection piping, improving jobsite connection efficiency and consistency.
Can be used for grooved connections in industrial piping, equipment piping, and large piping systems.
Suitable for equipment piping, mechanical rooms, and on-site installation requiring grooving work.
The cart-mounted structure is easy to move and suitable for quick relocation between different work areas.
Can be used for pipe prefabrication, batch processing, and standardized assembly workflows in factories.
With the short pipe support, it is suitable for short pipe processing, repair modification, and special-length pipe handling on site.
