BRAUN HP series multi-functional high pressure surface grinding machines
HP series grinding machines provide thorough surface conditioning and localized defect removal on slabs, blooms, ingots and heavy seamless pipe. Automated closed-loop pressure regulation maintains steady grinding forces, maximizing metal removal without thermal structural damage.
- Adaptive electronic regulation of wheel contact pressure during operation
- High rate removal of surface cracks, inclusions and seams from steel slabs
- Conditioning of heavy-wall seamless tubular hollows before cold drawing
- Rugged seal protection for linear ways, spindle units and hydraulic drives
BRAUN TSKS convertible abrasive cut-off and cold circular saw machines
TSKS convertible machines unite abrasive dry cutting and cold carbide circular sawing within a single heavy bed structure. The hybrid layout enables quick tooling changes based on workpiece hardness, profile geometry and end-face squareness specifications in pipe production.
- Single unified platform accommodating interchangeable cut-off assemblies
- Tungsten carbide tipped circular saw blades for smooth cold cut finishes
- Dry abrasive wheel capability for cutting heat treated high hardness stock
- Heavy-duty hydraulic clamping fixtures securing bundles of bar and pipe
BRAUN flexible slab deburring and heavy flash grinding machines
Specialized deburring machines by BRAUN automatically remove heavy cutting flash and slag burrs from all four transverse edges of flame-cut steel slabs. Mechanical burr removal prevents catastrophic roll surface denting and strip defects during subsequent hot rolling passes.
- Four-sided transverse edge deburring of hot and cold steel strand slabs
- High wear-resistant mechanical chisels and heavy rotary milling tooling
- Direct in-line installation onto strand production run-out roller tables
- Prevention of heavy work roll indentation caused by hardened torch slag
BRAUN hydraulic steel structures and trash rake cleaning systems
BRAUN hydraulic division manufactures telescopic and wire rope trash rake cleaning systems for hydroelectric intake screens and pumping stations. The systems maintain uninterrupted water flow by retrieving heavy floating debris, timber and silt deposits from substantial water depths.
- Stationary and rail-mounted mobile telescope trash rake cleaning machines
- Reliable intake screen cleaning reaching extreme water operating depths
- Fully automated cycles of trash gripping, vertical lifting and dumping
- Marine duty anti-corrosion protection on structural steel and cylinders
BRAUN Maschinenfabrik Austrian heavy metallurgical machine manufacturing
Austrian manufacturer BRAUN Maschinenfabrik Gesellschaft m.b.H. was established in 1848, developing from early metal forging into a globally recognized producer of heavy metallurgy machine tools.
The industrial facility in Voecklabruck engineers automated machinery for steel and alloy processing plants throughout Europe, Asia and the Americas. Technical design relies on sustained innovation in metal cutting kinematics and surface conditioning.
Manufacturing focuses on three core sectors: high performance abrasive cutting and grinding machine tools, hydraulic steel water structures with trash rake cleaning equipment, and specialized remote cutting machinery for industrial plant dismantling.
Structural reliability stems from precision machining of heavy rigid machine tool bases.
Kinematics and heavy drives of BRAUN Model TS abrasive cut-off machines
Model TS heavy abrasive cut-off machinery performs high-speed dry sectioning of semi-finished strand slabs, blooms, ingots and tubular stock. The series accommodates heavy reinforced wheels from 500 to 2050 mm in outer diameter with drive ratings reaching 680 kW.
Systems feature chop-stroke feed, radial traverse motion or turntable indexing to suit hot and cold steel processing lines.
TS series spindle assemblies feature high-load anti-friction bearings supported by circulating lubrication and multi-stage labyrinth seals.
Heavy servo-hydraulic feed cylinders equipped with linear displacement transducers provide smooth wheel entry into tough workpieces, preventing abrasive layer spalling during heavy production cycles.
Design and technology of BRAUN HP high pressure surface grinding machines
Multi-functional BRAUN HP grinding machines remove longitudinal seams, cracks and oxide inclusions from strand slabs, blooms and heavy seamless tubular hollows.
The primary technical advantage is an adaptive closed-loop pressure regulation system that adjusts wheel contact force, achieving high metal removal rates without localized thermal structural changes.
The machine bed incorporates a rigid welded fabrication with hardened linear guideways. The heavy grinding wheelhead mounts a high-torque electric motor and vibration monitoring sensors feeding real-time signals into the automation controller.
Heavy manipulator mechanisms rotate workpieces for comprehensive surface conditioning.
Convertible abrasive and carbide circular sawing machines Model TSKS
BRAUN TSKS convertible systems combine high speed abrasive cut-off and cold carbide circular sawing on a unified heavy bed frame.
This modular engineering allows manufacturing plants to transition quickly between tough superalloys and high-finish cold pipe sectioning without purchasing two independent sawing units.
Tooling changeovers require minimal downtime owing to standardized mounting faces and heavy quick-disconnect hydraulic couplers. Heavy hydraulic clamping vices hold single forged billets as well as dense bundles of tubular products, ensuring perpendicular cut geometry across varied section sizes.
Automated slab deburring and heavy flash grinding systems on strand lines
Following oxy-fuel flame cutting on steel strand lines, heavy slag burrs and hardened flash form along transverse slab edges, threatening downstream hot mill work rolls.
Specialized BRAUN deburring systems mechanically shear cutting slag from all four transverse slab edges in a single continuous pass. Units integrate into strand discharge roller tables.
Deburring carriages carry wear-resistant carbide cutters and rotary milling heads supported by independent hydraulic suspension that floats over rolling irregularities. Heavy thermal shielding encloses sensitive hydraulic valves and sensor instrumentation against intense radiated heat.
Technical selection and verification procedures for BRAUN machine parts
Selecting replacement components for BRAUN Maschinenfabrik machinery requires the machine serial number, component nameplate markings or equipment engineering drawings.
Inquiries for cutting and grinding machinery verify spindle journal diameters, bearing specifications, directional valve markings and hydraulic pump displacements.
For hydraulic intake rake cleaning systems, telescope section profiles, lifting winch capacities, wire rope drum dimensions and hydraulic cylinder seal packages are verified.
Engineering specialists confirm dimensional compatibility, provide quotations and coordinate freight transport directly to industrial facilities.
