Regina, SK, Canada - Brandt Engi-
neered Products Ltd. has designed
and delivered pipe handling equip-
ment known as Thread Tables to a
number of tube and pipe producers.
Brandt Thread Tables integrate with
the most modern machine tools.
These machine tools are big bare
lathes, often called “Threaders”
and are being used to produce both
API and premium threads on tube
and pipe in today’s market place.
Brandt equipment offers a compet-
itive edge by positioning material
in and out of the Threaders quick-
ly, keeping up with the improved
cycle time’s offered by the latest
machine tool suppliers.
Maintaining cycle times with
Threaders is a critical variable to
ensure the investment in the ma-
chine tool is achieving maximum
return.
The Brandt Thread Table utilizes
adjustable stops to position one
pipe at a time on the table. The
table is designed with four inde-
pendent idler rolls used to absorb
vibration while the pipe is spinning
during the threading process. The
independent idler rolls were engi-
neered and manufactured to reduce
unwanted pipe movement at multi-
ple locations along its length.
This dampens the whipping mo-
tion of pipe, allowing the machine
tool to produce API and premium
threads on the end of each pipe
with greater confidence.
Pinch rolls are used at the head of
the Thread Table to protect the ma-
chine tool while elevating V-rolls
enable various diameter pipes to
be fed into the machine tool at the
proper elevation. The new design is
meant to eliminate costly repairs
caused when pipes bump the ma-
chine tool upon entry. Rotary kicks
or paddle arms are used to transfer
the pipe with quick cycle times,
enabling maximum uptime and pro-
ductivity.
The Brandt Threading Table pro-
vides benefits by; maximizing val-
uable machine tool time, main-
taining low cost of production and
maintenance, minimizing rework
caused by unwanted pipe move-
ment and increasing productivity
through quick material handling.

es in machine and system design,
