FX450 Butt Fusion Welding Machine (180–450 mm)
The FX450 butt fusion welding machine is designed for HDPE pipe welding within the 180–450 mm diameter range.
This range is commonly encountered in municipal and general pipeline projects, where one machine is often expected to cover multiple standard pipe sizes and support long, continuous on-site operation.
Pipe Size Range
Pipes in the 180–450 mm range are widely used in pipeline construction.
They require stable and repeatable welding performance, but typically do not call for large-scale fusion equipment.
The FX450 is developed specifically for this working range, helping avoid both undersized and oversized machine selection while maintaining appropriate capacity and efficiency.
Machine Design
The FX450 features a fully welded steel frame that provides solid structural support.
Reinforced side plates, along with die-cast upper and lower rings, help maintain stability during repeated welding cycles.
The enclosed hydraulic power unit is well suited to job-site conditions, while separate forward and backward speeds allow smoother and more controlled operation.
The heating plate delivers stable temperature control, and the gear-driven facer ensures consistent pipe-end preparation.
Application Position
The FX450 is intended for welding HDPE pipes from 180 to 450 mm in routine pipeline projects.
Its design emphasizes structural stability and clear operating logic rather than complex configurations, making it a practical option for daily pipeline construction work.
