New Cutoff from Hautau

Hautau RC80 Rotary cutoff

HAUTAU has added a new, large-bore rotary tube cutoff machine to our product line of stationary tube, rotating head cutoff systems. The RC80 cuts tubes up to 9" (230mm) diameter with wall thicknesses of up to 1-1/2" (38mm). By machining both O.D and I.D chamfers at the time of cut, secondary handling and machining operations are eliminated. All cutting functions are programmable, including chamfering, grooving and rolling. Cut lengths and quantities are entered at the control console and multiple lengths can be cut in one setup. Complete part programs can be stored and recalled for even faster changeover. The hydraulic tube chucks are automatically positioned and require no adjustments. These machines use carbide parting and chamfering tools or chipless wheel-type cutters. Complete systems include a tube bundle loader or supply conveyor.


RC80 Benefits
  • Allows higher tool surface speeds
  • I.D. and O.D. chamfers on both tube ends
  • Dual chucks eliminate tool breakage
  • Cutoff piece is held and does not fly out
  • Cut long lengths without "steady rests"
  • Square and shaped tubes can be cut
  • Fast change from lathe to wheel tooling
  • Bowed or dented tubes do not "whip"
  • Scratching of the tube O.D. is reduced
  • Cutoff is smoother and quieter
  • Operator safety is enhanced
  • No coolant required for most cutting


RC80 Features
  • Auto-adjust 6-jaw chucks
  • Cuts up to three lengths from one tube
  • Servo-driven programmable feed length
  • ±.005" repeatability per feed stroke
  • 1 minute length and diameter changeover
  • Allen-Bradley SLC-504 Controller
  • Water-to-oil heat exchanger
  • Remnants are separated from cuts
  • No collet, feed wheel or tooling changes
  • 30" standard feed stroke
  • Program storage and recall function
  • Integrated hydraulic pump/tank
  • Bosch hydraulic components
  • Remnant bin on heavy-duty casters
