Semi-Automatic Pipe Counter Boring and Facing Machine manufactured by Gagan Engineering Works Khopoli Maharashtra India

The Semi-Automatic Pipe Counter Boring and Facing Machine manufactured by Gagan Engineering Works in Khopoli, Maharashtra is an industrial end-finishing machine designed for high-precision end facing, external chamfering, and internal counter-boring of steel, stainless steel, brass, and aluminium round pipes up to 60 mm Outside Diameter (OD). Powered by a 5.0 HP heavy-duty spindle motor with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) speed regulation from 100 to 1450 RPM, the machine features a dedicated 1.0 HP hydraulic power pack (60-litre capacity) driving dual self-centering V-jaw hydraulic clamps that rigidly secure the tube without surface marring or wall ovality. A multi-tool cutter head equipped with standard indexable carbide inserts simultaneously faces the pipe end perpendicular to the centerline, applies an external weld prep bevel (30° / 37.5° / 45°), and counter-bores the internal diameter to strict dimensional tolerances (±0.05 mm) in a single rapid 8 to 15-second cycle. An automated length stop and hydraulic feed cylinder ensure repeatable machining depths across high-volume production runs. Widely deployed in automotive exhaust plants, shock absorber manufacturing, boiler tube fabrication, scaffolding tube processing, and furniture tube factories across India and global export markets.

Frequently Asked Questions — Semi-Automatic Pipe Counter Boring and Facing Machine

What pipe outer diameter and wall thickness range can this machine handle?

It handles round pipes and industrial tubes from 15 mm up to 60 mm Outside Diameter (OD) with wall thicknesses from 0.8 mm up to 6.0 mm.

Does the machine face, chamfer, and counter-bore simultaneously in one stroke?

Yes. The custom multi-tool cutter head carries three indexable carbide tool holders that perform facing, ID counter-boring, and OD chamfering in a single automated hydraulic feed cycle.

What cutting tool inserts are used and how easy are they to replace?

It uses standard ISO industrial indexable carbide inserts that can be indexed or swapped in under 2 minutes without removing the cutter head.

How does the hydraulic clamping prevent pipe deformation or ovality on thin tubes?

The self-centering V-jaws distribute hydraulic pressure symmetrically, and the clamping hydraulic regulator can be fine-tuned to prevent crushing thin-walled tubing.

What is the production throughput per 8-hour shift?

With a cycle time of 8 to 15 seconds per end, a single operator processes 1,500 to 2,400 pipe ends per 8-hour shift.

What warranty and spare parts availability does Gagan Engineering guarantee?

We provide a 1-year comprehensive manufacturer warranty, genuine replacement tool holders, hydraulic seals, and rapid technician support.
