Hornung W6 with wall thickness up to 40 mm is a specially reinforced version of the W6 hydraulic expander. It is designed for expanding (socketing) extra-heavy-walled pipes with wall thicknesses reaching 40 mm. This machine is not intended for standard ventilation systems; rather, it is oriented toward heavy industry, shipbuilding, hydraulic systems, and other sectors where massive metal pipes are utilized. This model represents the peak technical capabilities of the W6 platform.
Features and Advantages
Design Characteristics
Ultra-Reinforced Frame: A specialized C-frame or box-frame structure designed to eliminate deflection during the expansion cycle.
Heavy-Duty Segmental Tooling: The segments are made from high-grade tool steel, specifically heat-treated to handle the stress of 40 mm thick walls.
Controlled Expansion Rate: Specialized hydraulic valves ensure a smooth transition of the metal to maintain structural integrity.
Standard Equipment
Specially Reinforced Hydraulic System and W6 machine bed.
Tooling Heads with reinforced segments capable of withstanding heavy-duty expansion.
Stroke Control System adapted for high-load operations to ensure dimensional accuracy.
Options
Custom Tooling: Adapted to specific diameters and material characteristics of thick-walled pipes (e.g., high-tensile alloys).
Automated Lubrication: To reduce friction between the segments and the inner wall of the heavy pipe.
