FX76 ERW Tube Mill for Φ38-102 mm Steel Tube Production
FX76 moves the project into a larger structural class. Buyers at this level must evaluate more than tube dimensions: strip preparation, coil weight, workshop length, crane access, roll handling, cutting and finished-section movement can all influence whether the proposed line is practical.
Round Tube Reference
Φ38-102 mm / 1.0-4.0 mm
Square Tube Reference
30×30-80×80 mm / 1.0-3.2 mm
Best-Fit Production Direction
larger structural tube with workshop and material-flow planning
Engineering confirmation required: published model values are preliminary references. Final capability, configuration and production conditions follow the approved technical agreement.
Suitable Orders for FX76
- larger structural round tube for construction and industrial fabrication
- square and rectangular hollow sections for frames and supports
- warehouse, rack and machinery structural members
- industrial pipe and general project-based welded tube
Selection Boundary
The model fits factories with recurring larger structural orders rather than occasional demand near 100 mm round tube. Compare FX60 when most products are medium, and compare FX89 when larger round or hollow sections are a core part of the confirmed sales plan.
Before an FX76 quotation, mark coil storage, slitting or strip storage, line direction, electrical cabinet location, maintenance space, run-out and packing on the workshop drawing. This prevents the equipment list from being separated from the factory's real logistics.
FX76 Selection Profile: Larger Structural Project Planning
FX76 requires a project-level decision. The machine reference and the factory infrastructure must be evaluated together so that coil entry, production, maintenance and finished-tube logistics remain workable.
Best Product Mix
Recurring larger round tube and hollow sections for construction, industrial fabrication, racks, frames and project supply.
Critical Engineering Point
Workshop length, crane capacity, roll handling, coil flow and finished-tube movement become design inputs, not secondary details.
Choose FX89 Instead When
Compare FX89 when products above the FX76 reference are frequent, when 100×100 mm-class square sections are required, or when heavier walls dominate the business plan.
When FX76 Is a Strong Fit
FX76 is most practical when recurring orders genuinely use its larger structural tube with workshop and material-flow planning 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 FX60 when most orders sit below this range. Compare FX89 when larger or heavier products are recurring commercial requirements rather than occasional possibilities.
Main Configuration Priorities
- Coil storage, loading and strip preparation included in the layout review
- Forming, welding and sizing configuration checked against structural materials
- Roll handling and changeover access planned for heavier tooling
- Cutting and run-out designed for larger finished sections
- Electrical load, foundations, crane and installation scope reviewed early
Production Process and Engineering Focus
Entry and Strip Preparation
Coil loading, uncoiling and braking are planned together with crane access and the selected slitting arrangement. Strip leveling and guidance prepare wider material for stable entry into the larger forming section.
Accumulation and Forming
Accumulator type and capacity are reviewed against coil changes, line length and the factory's operating plan. Forming stands and rolls are designed for structural material and the confirmed large-section product family.
Welding, Cooling and Sizing
Welding demand, squeeze-roll geometry and seam control are checked for the important wall-thickness combinations. Cooling and sizing provide dimensional control before final square or rectangular hollow-section geometry.
Cutting and Finished-Tube Handling
Cutting equipment and support tables are selected to manage larger tube without uncontrolled movement. Inspection, run-out and packing flow should reduce repeated crane moves and unsafe manual handling.

FX76 Tube Mill FAQ
Why does FX76 require more workshop planning?
Larger strip, tooling and finished sections increase handling and access requirements. The line should be reviewed together with crane, foundations, maintenance space and packing flow.
Can FX76 serve both round and hollow sections?
Round, square and rectangular production can be discussed within the engineering design. The exact hollow-section list affects sizing, tooling and production planning.
How should I compare FX76 and FX89?
Use the recurring order mix, not the largest possible inquiry. Compare wall thickness, material, square-section demand, coil handling, workshop space and downstream logistics.
