Cutting and joining plastic pipes

with diameters up to 1200 mm
represents no problem with the
comprehensive range of tools and
equipment from ROTHENBERGER.

The development of CNC plastic

welding machines revolutionised
the process of plastic welding. The
results are welded seams of
previously unknown quality and
reliability.

With its wide range of cutting and

welding machines, ROTHENBERGER
permits mobile as well as stationary
operation in workshops and on
building sites.
