RG-1C Roll Grooving Machine: Same Grooving Capability, Different Setup
publisherRUBR
time2026/02/07
- The RG-1C roll grooving machine shares the same core grooving capability as the RG-1X, with the main difference in its fixed stand and wheels. The added structure does not change grooving performance, but makes stability and handling easier for fixed workshop use. It is ideal for continuous or repetitive grooving tasks at a set workstation.
RG-1C and RG-1X have the same grooving performance
Let’s start with the key point.
In terms of grooving performance, the RG-1C and RG-1X are the same.
They use the same core grooving unit, the same drive concept, the same roller system, and cover the same pipe size range.
Grooving force, groove quality, and normal operating parameters do not change because of the stand configuration.
So the RG-1C should not be understood as a“stronger”or “upgraded” grooving machine.
The difference is mainly in the machine structure
Where the RG-1C differs from the RG-1X is the overall setup.
The RG-1X is closer to a core grooving unit and is typically used with a customer-supplied stand or workbench.
The RG-1C is built on the same core unit, but adds a fixed stand and wheels, forming a complete machine that can stand on its own and be positioned easily within a workshop.
These structural parts do not take part in the grooving process itself, and they do not change grooving performance.
Why RG-1C is often chosen for fixed workstations
Even though the grooving capability is the same, the RG-1C tends to be more convenient in fixed working areas.
The fixed stand keeps the machine height and position consistent, so operators do not need to readjust the setup again and again.
When working with repeated pipe sizes or during continuous grooving tasks, the workflow stays smooth and predictable.
This is why the RG-1C is commonly used in:
· Fixed workshop stations
· Continuous or batch grooving work
· Applications with relatively stable pipe sizes
In these situations, its advantage is not more power, but more consistent use of the existing capability.
Choosing between RG-1C and RG-1X
If your application requires flexible stand arrangements or frequent integration with different fixtures, the RG-1X offers more freedom.
If the machine stays in one place and long-term stability and ease of use matter more, the RG-1C is usually the simpler and more practical choice.
The difference is not about performance level, but about how and where the machine is used.
One simple way to describe RG-1C
You can think of the RG-1C like this:
It does not make grooving stronger — it makes grooving easier to keep stable in a fixed setup.
