Socket Fusion & Butt Fusion machine

Butt Fusion machine

Two fusion techniques are used for joining polyethylene pipe – socket fusion and butt fusion.

Ritmo butt Fusion machine for PP, PVDF pipe and fittings carrying fluids under pressure.
Butt Fusion machine are used for welding pipes made from polyethylene (PE), for the water and gas industries, and from polypropylene (PP) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) for the chemical industries.
The pipes are mounted in the clamps of the butt Fusion machine and checked for initial alignment. The pipe ends are then planed to ensure that they are flat and square. The final alignment of the pipes is then checked.

Socket Fusion

Socket fusion machine is mainly used for welding pipes made from PE, PP and PVDF for fabricating process and chemical pipework. Socket fusion welding involves the use of a fitting. The process operation is generally manual. The welding cycle consists of a heating phase and a cooling phase. In socket fusion welding, a socket mounted on a hot plate is used to heat the outside surface of the pipe being welded. On the opposite side of the hot plate, a spigot is used to heat the inside surface of the injection moulded fitting.
Ritmo socket fusion tools are practical, easy to handle and safe, thanks to the warning lights (means power ON and working temperature OK), the plastic ergonomic handle and excellent thermal insulation provided by the stainless steel wiring enclosure. An efficient tried and tested production process, selection of best materials and constant quality controls all combined to make Ritmo socket fusion tools reliable in many operating conditions.
Prisma machines are manufactured with special Aluminium alloys, thus resulting in very strong, light and easy to transort machines
