Baruffaldi presents the Stellaris Perforator: Italian engineering for the future of pipe extrusion
Baruffaldi Plastic Technology proudly unveils the new Stellaris Perforator, the latest innovation from Primac, its brand specialized in pipe extrusion technologies. Entirely designed and manufactured in Italy, Stellaris combines Baruffaldi’s renowned engineering expertise with the latest Industry 4.0 standards, setting a new benchmark in precision, performance, and sustainability.
The New Standard in Pipe Perforation
The Stellaris Perforator is engineered to deliver unmatched accuracy, speed, and efficiency in pipe processing. Its fully automatic operation and smart control system allow seamless integration into any extrusion line, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
The Stellaris Perforator is an in-line automatic machine for corrugated PVC and HDPE pipes, from 50 mm to 250 mm in diameter, used for water collection and drainage. Stellaris allows multiple perforation patterns, ensuring perfect centering on the corrugation groove and a clean, high-quality finish. Synchronization with the extrusion line is automatic via an electronic dancer system, while two self-centering haul-off units guarantee proper pipe handling. The brushless-driven punching heads maintain constant force even as diameters change, and the innovative punch design folds scrap to both sides of the hole, eliminating suction needs and preventing material release. Format changes are fast thanks to automatic head adjustment and quick replacement of perforation devices. Designed for efficiency and sustainability, Stellaris delivers top performance and adaptability for modern pipe extrusion lines.
