JK1660 Features
Features of the Perforating Assembly
The eight drilling motor assembly is reciprocated up and down with four 2 1/2 x 20 stroke air cylinders. This system will be automatically set for any pipe size 4″ – 16″ without adjustments. Also Horizontal movement on perforating machine for hole spacing, stagger offset spacing and machine travel to next segment is performed by a high torque closed loop stepper gear motor.
The 60′ pipe support track with lateral rollers are spaced every 2 feet which allows the track to sit securely and safely directly on the floor.
Regulate Plunge Rate
The JK1660 was originally designed to perforate holes in HDPE pipe. Because the drills enter the pipe fast, there is a possibility of chipping out the holes or cracking PVC pipe. However, if you require this machine to perforate PVC, the JK1660 can be built with an attachment to regulate plunge rate of drills into pipe.

Automatic Pipe Indexer
Automatic Pipe Indexer
Air operated 2 speed automatic pipe indexing unit, designed with a 360 degree encoder for accurate pipe indexing of row stops.
Indexing unit equipped with a 1 1/4″ hollow shaft to accommodate air operated pipe holders for pipe sizes 4″ – 16″.
Air supply must maintain 10 cfm at 100 psi.
Sample Perforating Time
4″ (110mm OD) HDPE pipe; 40′ (12m) length
4 rows; 4″ (100mm) centers; .394″ (10mm) diameter hole
480 holes = 9 minutes, 40 secs or 1.125 seconds per hole
Touch Screen Programming
Touch Screen
The machine is set up by the use of a sophisticated PLC with commands run through a Panasonic touch screen.
The touch screen will enable set up for hole spacing, stagger spacing, machine travel movement per segment, degrees of rotation per row and the amount of rows.
The machine basically has one physical setting, that is to raise or lower the pipe indexer when changing pipe sizes.
This machine can be set up for a variety of different hole patterns. For your most common patterns, the PLC is set up with a memory area for 5 different hole patterns for fast perforating set up.
Optional 40′ Pipe Cart
Pipe Cart
As an optional feature for your JK1660, a 40′ pipe cart with guide rack can be ordered. Cart will have retractable ramp for transferring pipe from cart onto the machine.
– cart will be 4′ wide x 40′ long constructed with 2″x3″ steel tubing
– 3/16″ x 4′ x 8′ steel sheets on each end and 1/4″ x 1′ steel beam on each side of cart
– four 10″ caster wheels (2 of the caster wheels will ride in this track next to machine frame)
– retractable ramp so pipe can roll onto machine tray
– 100′ of 3″ channel iron guide track
Modified JK1660 Perforating Machine
The JK1660 model can be modified to drill holes in pipe sizes up to 24″. Contact us for more information.
