The Automatic Bundling Machine is a key finishing equipment used in ERW tube mill production lines.
It is designed to automatically collect, count, align and bundle finished welded steel pipes after cutting and straightening. By replacing manual packing, this machine improves production efficiency, ensures consistent bundle quality, and reduces labor intensity.
Installed at the end of the ERW tube mill, the automatic bundling machine helps manufacturers achieve a higher level of automation and standardized pipe packaging for storage and transportation.
Function & Working Process
After steel pipes are cut to length and straightened, they are transferred to the bundling area through the run-out table. The automatic bundling machine then:
-
🔗Receives and aligns finished steel pipes
-
🔗Automatically counts pipes according to preset quantity
-
🔗Bundles pipes using steel straps or PET straps
-
🔗Outputs neat and uniform pipe bundles
The entire process is controlled by a PLC system and operates synchronously with the ERW tube mill speed.

Role in ERW Tube Mill Production Line
In an ERW welded pipe production line, the automatic bundling machine plays an important role by:
-
Improving overall line automation
-
Ensuring consistent pipe quantity per bundle
-
Reducing manual labor and packing errors
-
Enhancing loading, storage and transportation efficiency
It is usually the final equipment in the finishing section of an ERW tube mill.
