  • Automatically coiling pipes in spool form with a constant internal pressure
    Patent number: 10308473
    Abstract: A machine for coiling pipes (1) in spool form, includes a structure (10) supporting a rotating reel (11), a feeder unit for feeding a pipe (1) to the reel (11) in a longitudinal direction (X-X), a device (12) for cutting the pipe (1), a measuring unit (20) for measuring the length of the pipe (1), arranged upstream of the cutting device (12), in the longitudinal direction (X-X). The machine includes a device for hermetically sealing the pipe arranged in a zone of the machine situated upstream in the direction of feeding of the pipe towards the reel of the means for fastening to the reel and upstream of the cutting device in the same direction of feeding.
