Wheel Rim End Cutting Machine

The 15 MPa hydraulic system delivers precise, adjustable force to the cutting tooling, ensuring clean edge nips without material distortion. Consistent pressure control means each rim enters the re-round station with identical edge geometry, reducing scrap and rework downstream.

At approximately 3,600 kg, the machine’s welded heavy-gauge steel frame absorbs cutting loads with minimal flex. This rigidity translates directly to tighter dimensional tolerances on the trimmed rim edge, even over extended production runs.

The 1,500 mm × 800 mm footprint and generous tooling opening allow quick workpiece loading — manually or via robotic transfer — and straightforward placement between the welding/planishing station and the re-rounding machine in a standard tubeless rim line.

A side-mounted control panel positions cycle start, pressure adjustment, and diagnostic readouts within arm’s reach. Operators can monitor hydraulic pressure in real time and respond to any anomaly without leaving the station.

Hydraulic components are connected with industrial-grade hoses and fittings rated for continuous duty. The simple mechanical layout — frame, cylinder, tooling — minimizes wear points and keeps scheduled maintenance intervals short.
