Abstract
A tube cutter and process for cutting tubes, including a housing with a gear cluster therein and with the cluster providing for two separate drive controls to the cutter and the supporting rollers, both of which engage the tube to be cut. The drive controls are arranged to be relative one to the other so that the feed of the cutter against the tube to be cut can be regulated. Regulation may be achieved by different motor speeds or by a brake mechanism. The cutter automatically adjusts radially to the tube and revolves therearound in the cutting process.
