Abstract

In critical industries such as petrochemical, energy, and shipbuilding, the quality of pipeline welds directly determines system safety and service life. This study focuses on the design and technical analysis of an automatic portable pipe cutting and beveling machine to overcome the limitations of conventional methods. The machine features a split “clamshell” structure, allowing direct mounting on pipes without disassembly. The design process includes force and cutting power analysis to select the motor and design the transmission system. Load-bearing components, particularly the drive shaft, are verifed for strength using the von Mises criterion. The results show that the design meets the ASME B16.25 standard, ensuring high precision, reliability, and mobility.
