FX114 ERW Tube Mill for Φ63-152 mm Steel Tube Production
FX114 is the largest individual FX model page in the current website series. It is intended for project-based planning of large round pipe and large square or rectangular hollow sections where coil preparation, installed power, workshop foundations, lifting, cutting and finished-product logistics must be confirmed together.
Round Tube Reference
Φ63-152 mm / 1.5-5.0 mm
Square Tube Reference
50×50-120×120 mm / 1.5-4.0 mm
Best-Fit Production Direction
large-diameter pipe and large hollow-section project engineering
Engineering confirmation required: published model values are preliminary references. Final capability, configuration and production conditions follow the approved technical agreement.
Suitable Orders for FX114
- large-diameter welded pipe for structural and industrial projects
- large square and rectangular hollow sections
- heavy frames, supports and project-based fabrication
- construction and infrastructure supply with defined specifications
Selection Boundary
This model should not be selected as a general upgrade from FX89. It is appropriate only when the recurring order portfolio, factory infrastructure and investment plan support the larger range. Products above this reference belong in a separate large-pipe family engineering discussion.
For FX114, submit a workshop drawing and utility schedule together with the product matrix. Include coil storage, strip preparation, line direction, control room, maintenance access, run-out length, inspection zone, packing and finished-pipe storage so engineering can review the full project boundary.
FX114 Selection Profile: Large-Pipe Project Engineering
FX114 should be sold and evaluated as an engineered production project. Machine selection, civil conditions, utilities, material preparation and downstream logistics are inseparable at this scale.
Best Product Mix
Recurring large round pipe and hollow sections backed by confirmed customers, material standards, delivery lengths and a workshop built for heavy production flow.
Critical Engineering Point
The factory must support coil logistics, installed power, foundations, crane movement, inspection and finished-pipe storage. These inputs should be confirmed before commercial scope.
When to Use a Larger-Pipe Family
Products above the FX114 reference should move to the FX165/FX219/FX273 family discussion instead of stretching this model page beyond confirmed data.
When FX114 Is a Strong Fit
FX114 is most practical when recurring orders genuinely use its large-diameter pipe and large hollow-section project engineering direction. The dominant products should fit the published reference without forcing the line to spend most of its time at an unsuitable boundary.
When to Compare Another Model
Compare FX89 when most orders sit below this range. Compare Large-Pipe Model Family when larger or heavier products are recurring commercial requirements rather than occasional possibilities.
Main Configuration Priorities
- Slitting or strip supply planned around large product widths and coil logistics
- Heavy forming, welding, cooling and sizing reviewed as one engineered system
- Cutting method and tube support selected for large finished sections
- Inspection, marking, stacking and packing requirements included before quotation
- Foundations, power, crane, installation and commissioning scope confirmed early
Production Process and Engineering Focus
Entry and Strip Preparation
Coil logistics, strip preparation and uncoiler selection are coordinated with crane and storage conditions. Leveling and entry guidance control wide strip before it reaches the heavy forming equipment.
Accumulation and Forming
Accumulation and strip joining are reviewed against the required continuity and available line length. Forming design is developed around the main large-diameter and hollow-section products in the contract list.
Welding, Cooling and Sizing
HF welding, squeeze-roll geometry and seam control are confirmed for material and wall-thickness demand. Cooling and sizing manage heat and geometry before the large finished section enters downstream handling.
Cutting and Finished-Tube Handling
Cutting and support systems keep long, heavy tube controlled through separation and transfer. Inspection, identification, stacking and packing are planned for the customer's delivery specification.
Information Needed for a FX114 Review

FX114 Tube Mill FAQ
Why is FX114 a project-engineering decision?
Its large product reference affects civil works, power, coil preparation, lifting, cutting, inspection and storage. The mill cannot be selected independently from the factory conditions.
Should I choose FX114 for occasional large orders?
Not automatically. If most production fits FX89, a larger line may add cost and complexity. Compare recurring order volume and the complete size-by-thickness list first.
What if my required pipe is larger than the FX114 reference?
Use the large-pipe family discussion for FX165, FX219 or FX273 references. Final model and capability must be confirmed through a separate engineering review.
