Contact our team for more information, or to arrange a demonstration. We also have hire machines available which can be a great way to try the machine before you purchase.

High Quality Butt Fusion Welding

Features

  • Machine body built with a supporting frame, four clamps and two hydraulic cylinders with fast non-drip coupling connections. It comes with the fast-locking-adapters system SMARTLock patented by Ritmo.
  • A Teflon-coated (PTFE) heating plate with a built-in independent thermometer to check the working temperature.
  • An extractable electric milling cutter to face the heads of the pipes and/or fittings. It includes a safety micro-switch and a thermal circuit breaker.
  • An electro-hydraulic gearcase protected from crashes and atmospheric corrosion by a plastic box. The electronic system guarantees the continuous repeat of the welding cycles and automatic control of the preset parameters, therefore the operator needs only to validate the welding phases.
  • The user-friendly graphic display allows quick setting of desired parameters. The EASY LIFE system can store up to 4000 welding cycles and are easily exported off the machine as a PDF file. This report can be transferred to a PC/laptop through a USB port and data-management software. 
  • Additionally, you can purchase an annual license for the SET & GO PRO app which enables you to run the whole welding process from your phone and upload QA welding logs to the cloud for project managers/engineers to access. The EASY LIFE machines are Wi-Fi ready and works easily together with the SET & GO PRO app.
