Recently, our company received an oil pipeline machining request from an African oilfield project service provider. This client specializes in integrated solutions for oilfield equipment, and the machining task undertaken involved cutting oil pipelines with a diameter of approximately 500mm, a maximum length of approximately 4000mm, and a single piece weight of approximately 1 ton.
For such large workpieces, conventional light-duty lathes are insufficient to meet the rigidity and load-bearing requirements. ANTISHICNC engineers responded immediately, tailoring a professional machining solution for the customer based on the workpiece dimensions and working conditions, and recommending the CWA61100/4000 heavy-duty horizontal lathe.
This machine has a maximum swing diameter of 620mm on the slide, a maximum workpiece processing length of 4000mm, and a maximum load capacity of 8 tons. All parameters are precisely matched to the processing requirements of customers’ oil pipelines, and it can stably achieve high-precision cutting of large-diameter and long workpieces, perfectly meeting the actual production needs of African oilfield projects.
