Chiyoda Seiki VIC-17 Portable Auto Straight Cutting Machine (Made in Japan)

Product Overview

The Chiyoda Seiki VIC-17 represents the pinnacle of premium Japanese engineering in motorized thermal cutting automation. Specifically designed for high-capacity workshops, structural steel fabricators, and shipyards, this portable automatic straight-line gas cutter provides absolute tracking precision.

Configurable with a Single Torch or Dual Torch setup, the VIC-17 allows operators to double their productivity by making parallel cuts or simultaneous double-sided edge bevels along a rigid track. Built for long-term industrial durability, it entirely replaces the variance of hand-held torch cutting with flawlessly uniform, square edges that are instantly ready for the welding line.

Why Upgrade to the Chiyoda Seiki VIC-17? 

• 100% Mastered in Japan: Forged with legendary Japanese component reliability to withstand continuous radiant heat and harsh mill environments without mechanical drift.

• Versatile Single / Dual Torch Options: Easily mount a single torch for standard ripping or dual torches to achieve simultaneous parallel cutting, strip slicing, or top-and-bottom plate beveling.

• Flawless Automated Straight Edges: The heavy-duty motorized drive wheel rolls uniformly along specialized track guides, completely eliminating wavy cuts and reducing grinding labor by up to 90%.

• Stepless Variable Speed Calibration: Highly sensitive, variable mechanical speed controls allow the operator to dial in the exact travel speed needed to produce dross-free cuts across thin sheets or massive plates.

• Mechanical Forward & Reverse Shifting: Offers instant direction switching, enabling back-and-forth automated production runs without needing to lift or reposition the machine housing.

• Rugged, Portable Form Factor: Features a well-balanced top grab handle for effortless site deployment, quick track realignment, and single-operator transport.
