On January 7, 2026, Langbo Machinery carried out a trial run of a pipe belling machine equipped with an integrated weight checking function. The test focused on verifying the stability of the belling process and the accuracy of the online weighing system under normal operating conditions.
The belling machine is designed for plastic pipe end forming, with the additional function of weight measurement after the belling process. During the trial run, pipes were formed and weighed continuously, allowing the system to monitor weight variation in real time. This provides reference data for process control and quality inspection.
During testing, the heating, forming, and cooling stages operated in a stable sequence. The weighing unit was synchronized with the belling cycle, ensuring that each pipe was measured without interrupting production flow. The collected data showed consistent weight readings within the expected tolerance range.
The trial run also evaluated operational aspects such as parameter setting, cycle timing, and overall machine coordination. Adjustments were made to optimize the interaction between the belling unit and the weighing module, supporting smooth operation during continuous testing.
This trial confirms the practical application of integrating weight checking into a pipe belling machine. The solution provides an additional quality monitoring method for pipe end forming processes and supports stable and controlled production in plastic pipe manufacturing.
