The YT50 is a semi-automatic high-frequency tube end sealing and forming machine designed to seal, contract and spin-form tube ends made from metals such as copper, brass and stainless steel. It is intended for efficient, high-productivity end forming in manufacturing and fabrication environments.
The machine handles a variety of metals, including copper, brass and stainless steel. It is suitable for other conductive metals as well; for specific alloys or nonstandard materials, consult the supplier to confirm compatibility.
Key specifications: maximum shrinking diameter 50 mm; maximum contracting thickness 5 mm; maximum tube contracting length 6000 mm; tube contracting cycle 3–5 seconds; power 15 kW; weight approximately 700 kg; available voltages 220V/380V/415V/440V or customized.
Maximum shrinking (outer) diameter is 50 mm, maximum wall thickness for contracting is 5 mm, and the machine can process tube lengths up to 6000 mm (6 meters).
Typical tube contracting (sealing/closing) cycle time is 3–5 seconds per operation, depending on material, wall thickness and process settings.
The YT50 uses high-frequency (induction) sealing/forming. Benefits include rapid localized heating, good control of deformation, high repeatability and efficient energy use for conductive metals.
The YT50 is semi-automatic. It automates the high-frequency forming and spinning processes but typically requires an operator for loading/unloading parts, setup and monitoring. Specific automation options may be available upon request.
Standard power rating is 15 kW. Voltage options include 220V, 380V, 415V, 440V and can be customized to meet your site requirements. Confirm the available option at time of order.
Common applications include manufacturing metal pipes for construction, automotive parts production, HVAC components, plumbing and piping systems, and custom metal fabrication projects that require precise end forming and sealing.
General requirements: a stable, level floor capable of supporting the machine's ~700 kg weight; appropriate supply voltage and grounding per the chosen configuration; adequate ventilation and space for operator access and material handling. For exact electrical, grounding and floor-loading requirements, request the installation checklist from the supplier or arrange a site survey.
Standard protections typically include guarding around moving parts, emergency stop controls and electrical safety systems. Operators should receive training on high-frequency equipment hazards, PPE use and safe handling. Confirm the exact safety features and available safety-package upgrades with the manufacturer.
Routine maintenance includes keeping the machine clean, inspecting and replacing wear parts (chucks, dies, pads), checking electrical connections, ensuring cooling/ventilation systems are functioning and following lubrication schedules. Frequency depends on throughput and materials—daily visual checks and a periodic preventive-maintenance schedule (weekly/monthly) are recommended. Ask the supplier for a detailed maintenance plan.
Yes—wear parts and consumables (forming dies, chucks, seals) are normally available. The supplier can provide spare parts lists and replacement intervals. For critical production lines, arrange a spare-parts package when ordering.
Yes. Voltage can be customized and other options or tooling modifications can often be provided to suit particular tube profiles, materials or automation requirements. Contact the manufacturer with your part drawings and production details to discuss custom solutions.
The product listing indicates video technical support is provided. Warranty terms, on-site commissioning, training and extended service contracts vary by supplier—request the specific warranty policy, response times for service and options for on-site support or spare-part stocking when you inquire.
