A Structural Adjustment of the CM-12 for On-Site Use
In practical pipeline work and on-site cutting operations, a pipe cutting machine is rarely used in just one fixed position.
As work progresses, the machine often needs to be moved from one spot to another, sometimes over short distances but quite frequently.
Based on this real-world usage, a structural adjustment was made to the CM-12 pipe cutting machine, focusing specifically on how it is used on site.
The Core of the CM-12 Remains Unchanged
First, it should be made clear that this red version is still the CM-12 in essence.
Its cutting range, cutting method, and hydraulic system remain the same as those of the standard CM-12.
The CM-12 continues to be an electric hydraulic pipe cutting machine designed for cold cutting of steel and stainless steel pipes in the 2"–12" range.
It uses a split hydraulic system with a separate pump and cylinder, and this adjustment does not involve any change to cutting performance or working principles.
Real Conditions in On-Site Use
In on-site environments, pipe cutting machines often need to follow the progress of the work.
Even small position changes, when repeated many times, can affect how smoothly the equipment is used.
The issue, therefore, is not about cutting capability itself, but rather this question:
without changing the cutting structure, can the machine be moved more easily on site?
Adjustments Made for Mobility
With this in mind, this variant of the CM-12 was adjusted by adding components specifically for mobility.
While keeping the original cutting and hydraulic structure unchanged, a tow handle and wheels were added, allowing the machine to be repositioned by pulling rather than lifting.
This change affects how the machine is moved and handled on site, not how it cuts or operates.
About the Exterior Finish
This version features a full red exterior finish.
The color change is purely an appearance choice, used to distinguish different usage forms, and does not indicate any functional or performance difference.
Conclusion
Overall, this red version is not a new pipe cutting machine model.
It is a structural adjustment made on the basis of the CM-12, aimed at improving mobility for on-site use while keeping the cutting core unchanged.
