An automatic grinding equipment for stainless steel round tubes Mod. SF 3000/200/6U, with 6 belt units, has been recently delivered and installed in Germany at the company HARTMANN EDELSTAHLROHRE GmbH considered as one of the leading companies in the production of special stainless steel tubes, worked and cut to size.

The equipment is also provided with self-washing system, centralized greasing system, internal and external tube drying made step-by-step by highly performing air blowing nozzles, self-diagnosis system, storing of diameters to be worked, anti-overlapping device of the tubes positioned on the loading system and much more. Internally the machine is made of stainless steel in the parts more exposed to working.
