External Debeaders

External debeading tools are used to remove the external weld bead that is formed by the butt fusion process. The tool taps onto the pipe bead, then alignment blocks slide against the pipe surface to guide the Debeader knife around the pipe. The blade cuts the bead flush with the surface, but does not undercut or damage the surface of the pipe. Undercutting and excessive material removal can create stress cracking.

Internal Debeaders

Internal debeading tools are used to remove the internal weld bead in PE pipes that are formed by the butt fusion process. The tool is manually powered with a drive handle, constructed from stainless steel and aluminium. Five different sized cutter heads cover pipe outside diameters from 90 – 450mm. The drive rods are available separately and the system allows a maximum insertion depth of 24 metres between welds.

Worldpoly 315 Fully Automatic

Fully automatic hydraulically operated butt welding machines, completely remove operator input.  They create high levels of butt weld consistency. A fully Automatic machine only requires the operator to install, clamp and clean and ream the pipe ends.

'Fully Automatic' specifically means that once the pipe dimensions and welding standard are selected, the machine calculates the correct temperature, soak and fusion pressure, inserts and removes the heating plate automatically and fuses the pipe ends together, without any input required by the operator.

If any input physical or otherwise is required on the machine other than the pipe dimensions and welding standard, then the machine is not fully automatic.

These machines comply to the requirements of the WSD & DSD. Definitions of fully automatic can be found in WIS 4-32-08 issue 4 and ISO 21307. Fully Automatic machines include data logging equipment to EN 12176.

Polyforce 630 Fully Automatic

Fully automatic hydraulically operated butt welding machines, completely remove operator input.  They create high levels of butt weld consistency. A fully Automatic machine only requires the operator to install, clamp and clean and ream the pipe ends.

'Fully Automatic' specifically means that once the pipe dimensions and welding standard are selected, the machine calculates the correct temperature, soak and fusion pressure, inserts and removes the heating plate automatically and fuses the pipe ends together, without any input required by the operator.

If any input physical or otherwise is required on the machine other than the pipe dimensions and welding standard, then the machine is not fully automatic.

These machines comply to the requirements of the WSD & DSD. Definitions of fully automatic can be found in WIS 4-32-08 issue 4 and ISO 21307. Fully Automatic machines include data logging equipment to EN 12176.

Polyforce 1000 Fully Automatic

Fully automatic hydraulically operated butt welding machines, completely remove operator error and create high levels of butt weld consistency due to consistent timing and heat inputs. A fully Automatic machine does not require operator input during the heating, joining, welding and cooling phases.  

'Fully Automatic' specifically means that once the welding standard is selected for the pipe, the machine applies the correct temperatures and pressures for that standard. The machine inserts and removes the heating plate automatically and fuses the pipe ends together, without any input being required by the operator.

If any input (physical or values) is required other than the pipe dimensions and welding standard, then the machine is not fully automatic.

These machines comply to the requirements of the WSD & DSD. Definitions of fully automatic can be found in WIS 4-32-08 issue 4 and ISO 21307. Fully Automatic machines include data logging equipment to EN 12176.

Polyweld 500 Semi Automatic

Semi automatic butt welding machines, require operator input to set the temperatures & pressures and to insert and remove the heating element. 

These machines are significantly cheaper than a fully automatic machine, but require skilled operators that have experience in butt welding to achieve consistent welds.

'Semi Automatic' means that the heat soak time, temperature and closing pressures are preset on the machine. When the operator commences the weld cycle, the machine applies these settings to the weld joint.

These machines DO NOT comply to the requirements given in the WSD & DSD PS (WIS 4-32-08 issue 4 and ISO 21307). They do includes data logging equipment complying to EN 12176.
