• RMT HAS COME OUT WITH A SAFER, QUICKER, AND EASY TO USE CNC PIPE THREADING MACHINE (Jul 06, 2021)

  What was once—excuse the pun—a pipe dream, now is a reality, thanks to Revolution Machine Tools’ Pipe Spool Master TGB Series machines. A veritable Swiss Army Knife of pipe fitting tools, these machines literally do it all: beveling, boring, centering, chamfering, drilling, facing, grooving, milling, rounding, tapering, tapping, texturing, thread cutting, threading, turning and weld preparation.

  RMT’s Pipe Spool Masters are basically lathes, but unlike any lathes known to metalsmiths of the last century. Instead of rotating the workpiece to facilitate machining, the pipe stays stationary in RMT’s machine and the spindles move left and right along an X-axis while spinning to do all the cutting. The Pipe Spool Masters were already a revolution in pipe beveling, boring and facing, but the introduction of the TGB line—which stands for threading, grooving and beveling—upped the ante with the additional features that make them the only one-stop multipurpose machines of their kind in the industry.

  Advantages of the Pipe Spool Master TGB Series

  Sporting Fanuc i-Series controls with industry standard Gibbs software, these CNC marvels can be programmed to do whatever their operators need done to a particular pipe, whether it be cutting ID or OD threads, grooving for Victaulic-style couplings or beveling ends to prepare pipes for welding.

  Besides the versatility of combining multiple functions in one machine, some of the other advantages that TGB models have over comparable machines include the following.

  • Safety is a huge selling point of the TGB. With a regular lathe, having a 20'-long part that’s spinning at upwards of 800 RPM can be a recipe for disaster if something goes wrong. All Pipe Spool Master machines hold the workpiece immobile while the machine itself does all the work, for a much safer operation.
  • It’s also a much cooler operation, since only the tool is rotating and not the pipe (RMT’s motto for the machine is “Spin the Tool—Keep it Cool”). While not recommended, parts that aren’t that heavy can even be cut without coolant at a slower rate, as shown in RMT’s demo videos.
  • The cost of a TGB machine can be one-fourth to one-third that of a through-spindle lathe.
  • Likewise, the footprint of a TGB is much smaller as well, with through-spindle lathes taking up to eight times the floorspace of RMT’s machines.
  • If needed, the TGB can be easily converted for mobile operations on a jobsite or out in the oil fields. A user can add a generator to the back of a truck and use a self-leveling trailer to transport the machine, making the necessity of sending a pipe off to a machine shop and waiting for them to finish and return it a thing of the past. (In fact, the staff of Revolution Machine Tools has frequently taken a Pipe Spool Master out on the road to give demonstrations to customers.)
  • Unlike a lathe, the Pipe Spool Masters can accommodate pipes of unlimited lengths, with the working end clamped in the machine and the rest supported by a roller table or a crane.
  • Models are available to handle virtually any size pipe that is needed, from 1" in diameter all the way up to 180".
  • Pipe Spool Master machines require very little maintenance on them—routinely changing the oil, greasing the ways and bearings and tensioning the belts keep them running like a charm. (RMT’s service team hasn’t had to fix one in the four years they’ve been selling them.)
  • On a standard lathe, once you pull a pipe off, you can’t rethread it because the orientation will be off. TGB machines have up to 24" of Z-axis back travel. This means that the spindle can be moved back and out of the way so the work can be checked and tested while the pipe is still stationary in the machine. If another 15-thousandths of an inch needs to be taken off, the operator can change the program and take care of it instantly with no difficulty.
  • Pipe Spool Masters are much faster than other machines. One customer who owned a competitor’s beveler and was used to a 12-hour operation time was amazed to see a demonstration of an RMT unit where it performed the identical function in just 15 minutes. (He wrote a check for one on the spot.)
  • Tooling changeovers can be done rapidly and altering a Pipe Spool Master for a different size diameter goes very quickly as well. For a now-defunct competitor’s machine, it required a six-hour teardown to change from a 2" to a 4" diameter. The same change on a Pipe Spool Master takes approximately 10 minutes.
  • Easier to set up and easier to run than competing machines, TGB series machines are also more productive in the fact that workpieces can stay in place to have several different operations performed in rapid succession.

  A Revolutionary Way to Machine and Turn Pipe

  While the classic lathe isn’t going away anytime soon, the Pipe Spool Master TGB Series is rapidly taking its place as the go-to machine to thread, groove, bevel and face pipe. The portability of the machine makes it a must-have in the oil and gas industry, and their affordability makes purchasing one a no-brainer for anyone considering a comparable-sized through-spindle lathe to do the identical functions.

  Regardless of the industry or application, Pipe Spool Masters have completely revolutionized the field of pipe fitting in the modern world.

• RMT NOW OFFERS A B-GENIUS-H SERIES HYBRID PRESS BRAKE (Jul 06, 2021)

  Always striving to meet the expectations of all fabricators, Revolution Machine Tools released the B-GENIUS-H Series of hybrid press brakes, bringing together the power of their hydraulic brakes with the efficiency and energy savings of their electric ones. At present, nearly 20 models are available, with sizes ranging from 8.5′ to 14′ and capacities from 110 to 300 tons.

  B-GENIUS-H press brakes provide precise bends even for small parts with different bending points, with the most accurate bending available in the market, between +/- .00003″ (smaller than one micron!). They are also the quietest press brakes, with a TUV-SUD certified noise level of 63db, and are extremely eco-friendly, with an energy savings of 65% over standard machines.

  Even though B-GENIUS-H brakes still utilize hydraulic oil, they handle it far more efficiently than conventional hydraulic press brakes:

  • They use 95% less oil, reducing manufacturing costs.
  • Their highly efficient oil pumps combined with the use of servo motors are able to complete jobs in record time.
  • They don’t use proportional valves that cause pressure loss.
  • The Y1 and Y2 cylinders have stand-alone oil tanks that require very little maintenance.
  • The problems of over-heated hydraulic oil are eliminated because the pumping system doesn’t run when the brake is in stand-by mode.
  • They require fewer oil changes, usually not until 7,000 working hours.

  Like all B-GENIUS press brakes, the hybrid series offers the value of large open heights, large strokes and large throat depths, as well as standard multiple axis control (Y1, Y2, Z1, Z2, X and R precision servo-driven back gauge). Optional additional axes are available, such as X1, X2, X Prime (Delta X), R1, R2, etc.

  B-GENIUS-H press brakes are equipped with top-of-the-line Delem DA-66T touch screen CNC control units with 3D graphical visualization. An optional upgrade to a Delem DA-69T touch screen 2D/3D CNC control is available, and the control can be changed out for a Cybelec ModEva control for users that prefer it.

  Not all the innovations of B-GENIUS-H brakes can be seen from the front. Moving around behind the machine shows that it comes standard with back CNC crowning, a stable and fast AC servo motor-driven precision back gauge with linear guide and ball bearing system (X, R, Z1, Z2) and even a rear work light.

  Like all machines from Revolution Machine Tools, B-GENIUS-H press brakes are built with world-class electronic components that are easily replaceable off the shelf from local suppliers—but also always in stock at RMT—and that are produced by such manufacturers as Siemens, Schneider and Mitsubishi.

  Multiple B-GENIUS-H press brakes can be combined in tandem, trio and even quad configurations to achieve greater bending lengths. Custom higher tonnage models (that are still flush to the floor) are available for special order.

  If you are a fabrication shop owner, manager or machine operator and want to evaluate the latest innovations for your next press brake purchase, be sure to check out the hybrid press brakes currently on the market, starting (and likely ending!) at Revolution Machine Tools, where cutting-edge technology is incorporated in every model of every metal fab machine offered.

• RMT HAS CHOSEN TO OFFER DROPSA SYSTEM BECAUSE OF THEIR PROVEN TRACK RECORD (Jul 26, 2021)

  Getting the Drop on Lubrication

  “I was a little nervous about DropsA at first,” said a customer of Revolution Machine Tools who had recently obtained a new bandsaw from them. After his team had put in over 80 hours on the machine in the first week, however, he had no complaints about the optional DropsA air/oil clean lubrication system that RMT had recommended. “It is fantastic. We don’t have water stains on the floor—we don’t get that anymore.” He added that it is a “very clean unit, it keeps the blade cool, it keeps my material clean.” (Bryce Fab testimonial video for the RMT S-ECO PDM 10-14 double miter bandsaw.)

  Coming in at only a few hundred dollars more than a basic micro mist cooling mechanism, the DropsA air/oil lubrication system is a popular add-on for bandsaw and cold saw customers of Revolution Machine Tools, who offers it as an option with every model.

  That’s a Slick Idea

  For as long as there have been machines with moving parts, machine operators have had to contend with friction, which is the resistance that two surfaces create when they move against each other. While friction has its uses—such as giving the soles of shoes traction while a person is walking—it generally plays havoc with mechanisms where touching parts must move in relation to each other.

  Thousands of years ago, ancient civilizations discovered that friction could be reduced to a great extent by the application of water, powdered minerals, oil from olives or other plant matter, and grease created by rendering or melting animal fats. It was only in the last couple of hundred years that refined and unrefined petroleum-based products began to be used as industrial lubricants.

  In addition to reducing friction and wear between moving parts, lubrication can also help to cool the parts, as friction between fast-moving surfaces can also generate considerable heat. This is especially true in the case of saws and drills which are sharp tools moving at rapid speeds to chip away at the relatively softer material of the workpieces. Because of this, machine lubricant is sometimes called coolant and more often just “cutting fluid” for its multifunction use of lubricating, cooling, and washing away swarf, or the chips that come off the material.

  Cutting fluids, which can also contain rust inhibitors, are often an oil-water emulsion—a mixture your high school science teacher likely said was impossible—which is added by the customer to a specified amount of water before being poured into a saw reservoir, where it is stored until it is sprayed on the blade. A downside of cutting fluid is the potential for hazardous mess, with excess flood spray coming off the saw blade and splattering on the shop floor, on employees, and within the work environment, the potential for workplace accidents, employee health issues (respiratory and skin irritants), and shop cleanliness can all become a cause for concern.

  Who Is DropsA?

  Founded in Milan, Italy, in 1946, DropsA began developing lubrication products for different industries. One of their earliest clients was International Business Machines (IBM), who needed oil lubrication systems for their printing equipment. Four years later, DropsA added grease lubrication systems to their offerings and took the lead in developing the new technology of Dual Line systems.

  The Dual Line centralized delivery system uses two main lubrication lines that run in parallel through an entire system: a delivery supply line that fires the lubrication point injectors and a return line that vents back to the reservoir. Dual Line systems can accurately deliver oil or grease over great distances from a single pumping station to up to several hundred points, if needed, with points easily being able to be added or removed from the system following the original installation.

  In the 1970s, DropsA pioneered the concept of a modular lubrication system, which can be readily customized to suit the specific needs of a business. In 1995, DropsA was also the first lubrication company in Italy to be accredited with ISO 9001:2000, a quality management system (QMS) certification program established by The International Organization for Standardization.

  DropsA has become a world leader in the manufacturing and development of lubrication systems, expanding from more basic oil and grease systems to innovations like recirculating oil lubrication systems, air/oil lubrication systems, and “near dry machining,” where a minimal quantity of oil is carried to the lubrication point in an aerosol format via a controlled compressed air stream.

  Why Use an Air/Oil Lubrication System?

  
  A hybrid air/oil system, like the one developed by DropsA, is comprised of a continuously flowing stream of air that cools lubrication points while also conveying small droplets of oil that are injected into it at regular intervals. The oil coats the surfaces at each lubrication point to reduce friction and wear. High-speed components such as bandsaw blades require specialized lubrication solutions like an air/oil system which can deliver precise amounts of the air/oil mixture where needed.

  The low-cost air/oil system from DropsA offers several advantages over traditional lubrication methods, including:

  • An incredibly compact design
  • A modular system for easy maintenance and customization
  • A simple interface
  • Fully integrated monitoring
  • Integrated or remote-cycle control
  • The ability to accommodate higher speeds
  • The ability to keep bearings cooler
  • A volumetric approach that assures the exact amount of lubrication reaches each point
  • A dramatic decrease in the amount of lubricant necessary for optimal efficiency
  • A continuous investment by the company in research and development
  • Virtually NO mess or cleanup required on your cut parts
  • No drips or slips around your shop floor
  • Much longer blade life, especially for Carbide as regular coolant causes thermal cracking

  Don’t Drop the Ball with Your Next Saw

  Machine buyers, from managers of large factories to owners of one-man fab shops, want to get the most out of any piece of metalworking equipment they acquire. Revolution Machine Tools understands this and offers the very best components as standard or optional equipment with every machine that they sell. That is why they are partnered with DropsA USA to provide their air/oil lubrication system as a highly recommended add-on with every bandsaw and cold saw that they sell.

  RMT chose to offer the DropsA system because of their proven track record of eliminating the waste and mess of regular cutting fluid systems while increasing the life cycles of the machines that have them installed. When you are in the market for your next saw, please call Revolution Machine Tools for a competitive quote and be sure to ask about the DropsA lubrication system. Your RMT representative will be happy to show you how the DropsA system will improve your metal cutting experience and help you have a more productive, clean, and profitable operation.

• RMT ANNOUNCES NEW LOCATION IN AUGUSTA, GEORGIA (Sep 02, 2021)

  Revolution Machine Tools (RMT) announces they have officially expanded to the East coast to better execute their commitment to customer service!

  Many people in the industry recognize the name Kyle Jorgenson, and for good reason.  He has been helping people improve their production and achieve their goals by providing the right tools for their applications for decades. His dedication and passion have influenced hundreds (perhaps thousands?) of companies around the world.  He has also been instrumental in developing new machines, new applications, and new ideas that have revolutionized the industry, especially here in the United States.  There are few people who understand the growing needs of American manufacturing, and even fewer willing to do something about it.

  Revolution Machine Tools was born for this reason.  Understanding what customer driven machine design really means has allowed RMT to develop unique and extraordinary equipment which put into effect the needs of our ever-expanding customer base to always be ahead of their competition.  The growing need for tighter tolerances, improved repeatability, faster speeds, and generally better production are mighty compelling and drive RMT to constantly improve.

  Headquartered in Utah, they have long provided machinery, service, and parts all over the country, but primarily in the West. As strength of their designs spread, their commitment to ALL customers has made it clear they needed to add consultants, technicians, and inventory in the East.  As the first line of their mission statement says, “…our success begins with helping others achieve success.”  This new facility was imperative to keeping that promise.  The new location in Augusta, Georgia, will give them an additional 30,000 square feet which will reduce lead times and improve the overall customer experience with RMT.

  Manufacturing is the foundation of every economy around the globe, and having the right tools and machinery is at the foundation of manufacturing.  As Henry Ford said, “If you need a machine and don’t buy it, you’ll ultimately find that you have paid for it anyway, but don’t have it.”  Those words were spoken long ago, but they are still just as true today and when he said them.  There is always a cost for indecision.

  In this ever increasingly competitive world where cost-per-part can mean the difference between landing a huge contract or losing a long time customer, it is essential to have a partner who understands metal fabrication and production to help navigate the waters of global competition.

  RMT welcomes any and all who wish to come see what the Revolution is all about and why they are so proud to support American manufacturing, the fantastic people involved in making it happen, and the families who truly are at the root of it all.
