For the production of snapfuse®
It measures the pipe ovality with the utmost precision and mills the contours for the snapfuse® socket and spigot ends to ensure a seamless fit for every connection. It also inserts the copper heating element precisely, guaranteeing optimum function during the welding phase.


Our commitment goes beyond the machine itself. STAR Engineering Systems offers a complete solution, including the entire supply chain for consumables such as tools, copper wire, packaging and spare parts. By partnering with us, you can rest assured that all aspects of your project will be managed by experts, allowing you to focus on your core business.
The STAR engineering team will customize the solution to your specific factory layout and ensure the optimal placement of the machine. Depending on your production requirements, including extrusion speed and pipe dimensions, we recommend either a single or twin machine configuration. While the single machine is suitable for lower production volumes, the twin version offers higher capacity as well as additional redundancy through parallel operation.
