Abstract
Disclosed is an orbital cutting apparatus that is capable of freely and selectively controlling forward and backward movement of a plurality of cutting tools, allowing the cutting tools to move forward and backward and to move in an axial direction of a material to be cut so as to enable processing of various shapes as well as cutting and chamfering, and is capable of simultaneously carrying out cutting and chamfering operations for a pipe material or a heavy pipe having a thickness of dozens of mm or more.
Claims9
An orbital cutting apparatus that is capable of freely and selectively controlling a plurality of cutting tools within a rotary body using a rotational speed ratio, the orbital cutting apparatus comprising:
- a spindle rotating unit coupled to any one surface of a main body so as to rotate (C axis);
- a plurality of tool units coupled to reciprocate (X axis) toward a center of the spindle rotating unit on a front surface of the spindle rotating unit so as to cut a clamped material in an orbital manner;
- a relative movement unit coupled to the main body to be rotatable in synchronization with the spindle rotating unit, and configured to transmit a rotational power from the relative movement unit to the plurality of tool units so as to cause the plurality of tool units to reciprocate;
- each tool unit of the plurality of tool units includes a connection gear formed at an end of a driving shaft so as to be selectively engaged with the relative movement unit so as to receive the rotational power of the relative movement unit;
- an operation unit configured to cause one of the connection gears to be engaged with or be disengaged from the relative movement unit;
- and
- a control unit configured to control movements of the spindle rotating unit and the relative movement unit,
- wherein each of the connection gears are engaged with or disengaged from the relative movement unit as a result of being reciprocated on the end of the respective driving shaft by the operation unit so as to activate or deactivate a tool.
