How to install and use the machine after receiving it

We will establish a chat group composed of 4-5 MM-Tech technicians and after-sales personnel to provide you with online technical support and guidance. If you still have difficulty installing and using your laser cutting machine, we also provide on-site technical training.

After welding, could we lay down the jointed pipes on the ground for cooling process?

You are not allowed to lay down the jointed pipes on the ground after fusion welding. The jointed pipe should stay in the machine with/without pressure (according to different welding norms) until the cooling time ends.

How could we calculate the cooling time?

The proper cooling time varies depending on the pipe material, pipe diameter, and wall thickness. You could always find the cooling time from MM-Tech operation manual for butt fusion welder.

How much temperature on the heater surface needed to butt fuse the pipes?

It varies depending on the pipe material and welding norms. Please consult the pipe manufacturer's recommended parameters.

What is the "drag pressure"?

Drag pressure is the pressure to overcome the friction during machine carriage movement. It should be added to the total fusion pressure.

How could we measure the "drag pressure"?

You are always requested to measure the drag pressure with pipes stayed in the machine. Simply speaking, completely open the machine carriage, zero the pressure in the hydraulic system, close the pressure relief valve, then push the direction lever to maximum and gradually rotate the pressure regulated valve in a clockwise way until the machine carriage gets in motion. The current pressure shown on the gauge is the drag pressure. For more details, please refer to MM-Tech operation manual for butt fusion machine.

What types of plastics are suitable for butt welding machines

Butt welding machines are suitable for most thermoplastic materials, which soften when heated and solidify when cooled.
The following are commonly used types of plastics suitable for hot melt welding:
Polyethylene (PE): Polyethylene is a common thermoplastic material used extensively in the manufacturing of plastic bags, bottles, containers, and pipes.
Polypropylene (PP): Polypropylene is another widely used thermoplastic material suitable for automotive components, electronic devices, medical instruments, and more.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): PVC exhibits excellent chemical resistance and heat resistance, making it applicable in construction, wire and cable, pipe manufacturing, and other industries.
Polystyrene (PS): Polystyrene is commonly used in packaging, insulation cups, household appliance casings, and other manufacturing applications.
Polycarbonate (PC): Polycarbonate offers outstanding impact resistance and transparency, making it popular in the electronics, optical, and medical fields.

Which plastics are not suitable for hot melt welding?

Butt fusion welding is not suitable for thermosetting plastics, as these materials undergo irreversible curing after being heated and cannot be softened again. Common examples of thermosetting plastics include epoxy resins, phenolic resins, and unsaturated polyesters. Since thermosetting plastics cannot be re-softened, they cannot be joined using the hot melt welding method.

If The Pipes Are Not Properly Aligned, What Should We Do?

Before butt welding, the pipe ends must be rounded and aligned. A pipe roller support will give more help in alignment and reduce the drag pressure. When the mismatch of the pipe walls is still out of local regulation, please adjust the clamping jaws by tightening down the high side until the pipe ends are even.

How Often Should We Replace The Blade of Pipe Fusion Welding Machine?

Replacing the blade not depends on a certain period. But you should replace it when two sides of the blade are blunt or chipped. The life of blade varies depending on the hours of operation, material being face, periodical maintenance, etc.

Can i buy extra spare parts if the machine broken?

Yes,we supply spare parts for machines,and technical teaching video for repair
