Learn how RG-2T forms an outward groove on metal pipe through controlled rolling pressure, stable pipe rotation, and the correct roller set. This article explains the convex groove forming process and its use in special metal pipe grooving applications.

Before shipment, the WP1200A large-diameter butt fusion machine goes through a real workshop test to check its frame, clamps, hydraulic movement, facer operation, heater connection, and overall working condition. This process helps confirm that the machine is properly assembled, stable in operation, and ready for delivery to customers.

The CM-20 pipe cutting machine is designed for cold cutting 8"–20" steel and galvanized pipes. With no flame or sparks, a clean cutting edge, an upgraded blade for up to 13 mm wall thickness, a separate hydraulic system, and easy mobility, it is suitable for workshops, pipe prefabrication, and job site cutting work.

The FX1200 butt fusion welding machine is designed for large-diameter PE and HDPE pipe welding. This article highlights its heavy-duty frame, stable pipe clamping, reinforced facer, remote control, and practical configuration for long-term jobsite use.

This article shows the RG-4X Pro grooving steel pipes under real working conditions. It explains how the machine’s integrated frame, upgraded rollers, reinforced pipe stand, and strengthened positioning wheel work together to improve stability, reduce vibration, and help produce consistent groove quality.

Welping produces Butt Fusion Welding Machines with dedicated machining and assembly lines.

Both drive systems are capable of completing the facing process.
However, for long-term use and higher load applications, gear-driven facers provide more stable and predictable results, making them more suitable for large-diameter butt fusion work.

Pipe support is often overlooked in grooved piping systems, yet it plays a critical role in long-term performance. While cutting and grooving ensure proper installation, improper support can lead to sagging, uneven stress, and reduced system stability over time. Reliable pipe hangers help maintain alignment, distribute load, and prevent issues that only appear during long-term operation.

FX series large-diameter butt fusion machines use an anti-slip pad system to improve pipe stability during welding. By increasing contact area and enabling adjustable positioning, the pads help reduce slippage and adapt to non-standard pipes. With multi-point contact (e.g., 96 pads on FX1000), the system ensures more even load distribution, supporting stable and consistent performance in real jobsite conditions.

The FX Gen 2 HPU introduces a redesigned hydraulic system for butt fusion machines, focusing on process-based control, operator positioning, and structural integration. Instead of incremental changes, the system separates control logic for different stages and allows operation closer to the pipe. The result is a more direct, stable, and consistent workflow in real applications.

The Gruvmaster upgraded pipe cutting blade is designed to deliver stable and long-lasting cutting performance. Compared with conventional blades, it maintains sharpness over extended use, supporting up to 20 continuous cuts without noticeable dulling. Suitable for steel and galvanized pipes, it helps improve cutting consistency, reduce downtime, and lower overall tooling costs in both workshop and job-site applications.

This workshop session shows the FX500 butt fusion machine in real operation. From pipe clamping and alignment to handling the facer and heating plate with a lifting crane, the process reflects actual working conditions. By participating directly, the team gains practical understanding while documenting the workflow for a clearer and more realistic demonstration.

The PTC140 pipe cutter is designed for practical, on-site use where cutting is frequent and efficiency matters. Instead of focusing on complexity, it delivers a stable structure, clear operation, and smooth workflow. With an intuitive layout and consistent cutting rhythm, it helps operators work faster and more reliably in real construction environments.

WELPING introduces a new 355 butt fusion clamp design with die-cast structure, improved consistency, dual 355mm/14” compatibility, and enhanced mobility.

This article explains the role of a data logger in PE pipe butt fusion welding. By automatically recording key parameters such as temperature, pressure, heating time, and cooling time, the data logger helps create traceable welding records. Compatible with A, FX, and A Pro series machines, it supports ISO and DVS standards and improves quality control in pipeline construction projects.

Grooving large steel pipes from 8" to 24" introduces challenges that go beyond simple machine power. Structural rigidity, hydraulic stability, and controlled roller pressure play a critical role in achieving consistent groove quality. This article explains the key factors affecting large-diameter grooving and discusses how machines like the RG-4X are designed to address these operational demands.

WELPING’s upgraded FX500 Butt Fusion Welding Machine now features an integrated crane hoist for simpler, safer operation. Our sales team recently completed hands-on workshop training, directly operating the machine to master its design and performance.

This article explains why internal gear drive matters in a pipe fusion facer used for butt fusion welding. Compared with common chain-driven structures, a gear-driven system provides more stable transmission, smoother rotation, and easier maintenance. By driving the cutter plates evenly, it allows both pipe ends to be faced simultaneously, helping ensure consistent pipe preparation before welding.
