ECC External Casing Cutter
ECC External Casing Cutter utilizes Wachs split frame technology to cut a wide range of casing conductors externally above the wellhead. The ECC split frame mounts around the exposed casing O.D. above the wellhead and simultaneously cuts and chamfers. Ring sizes are available for most grades and weights of the exposed external casing (or drive pipe/conductor) up to a 26” (660mm) diameter, with the ECC 814 AIR being the most common.
The ECC is based on Wachs proven split frame portable machine tool and takes advantage of the wide range of standard Genuine Wachs Tooling, requiring minimal axial and radial clearances. The ECC is available with pneumatic or hydraulic drive options. Remote handheld controls are optionally available for pneumatic powered machines.
Features:
External casing (drive pipe/conductor) cutting and beveling up to a 26” (660mm) diameter
Utilizes standard Wachs Genuine Tooling for severing and chamfering
Based on DynaPrep MDSF Split Frame technology
Requires minimal axial and radial clearances; hydraulic or pneumatic drive

Subsea Diamond Wire saws, range 4-84 inches
Wachs Subsea Diamond Wire Saws (DWS) are designed for underwater cutting of horizontal or vertical pipe or structures, with five models available to cut from 4in–84in O.D. (122–2134mm). Running on hydraulic power, the saws are controlled remotely with dedicated HPU controls, topside control panels or by ROV control operable via zero leak hot stabs.All Wachs Subsea DWS feature a unique hydrodynamic design that dramatically reduces centrifugal forces during operation, which means less power wasted in churning water and more power directed to cutting the workpiece.
SELF ADJUSTING AUTO FEED SYSTEM The Wachs Diamond Wire Saw is the only machine of its kind with a self adjusting auto feed system that controls wire tension, automatically matching the feed rate to the cutting rate. With the ability to adjust or stop the feed entirely until the cutting action catches up, it delivers a more efficient cutting action with minimal operator intervention and greatly extended wire life.

DynaPrep LDSF Large Diameter Split Frame Clamshell Pipe Cutters/Bevelers 75-120 inch range
E. H. Wachs LDSF Large Diameter Split Frame with hydraulic drive is designed for cold cutting, beveling, facing and counterboring on large diameter pipes, vessels and flanges. It’s been engineered to incorporate multiple advancements designed to make it stronger and faster to set up and operate. Picking up where our MDSF split frames leave off, four standard LDSF Large Diameter Split Frame sizes will cover a range from 60in-120in O.D. (DN1500-DN3000). Each machine covers a 15in (381mm) diameter range and will simultaneously cut and bevel most wall thicknesses and materials.
The internal, full bearing construction contributes to the LDSF Large Diameter Split Frame's smooth operation and long service life. Spring loaded O.D. (outside diameter) tracking slides for irregularly shaped or out-of-round pipe and vessels are standard, and allow the tooling to maintain continuous contact, producing precision weld preps with consistent lands. A new new CRBM Counterboring and Reverse Bevel module counterbores in vertical orientation, and reverse bevels in angled orientation. The LDSF Large Diameter Split Frame takes corrosion protection to a new level with virtually every surface treated. Its attractive red powder coated finish proudly reflects E.H. Wachs corporate colors.

EICC External Internal Casing Cutter
Wachs EICC External Internal Casing Cutter Kit is designed to cut and chamfer the casing internally below the wellhead, required for specific BOP installations. It is used in combination with an ECC Kit which makes the external cut required before installing the EICC. Once the external cut is made, the MDSF split frame from the ECC Kit serves as the drive platform for the EICC.
A wellhead adaptor is required to mount the MDSF, either our universal adapter or a custom adapter built to your specifications, which serves as the mounting point between the wellhead and the MDSF. The EICC is assembled to the MDSF and lowered into the casing, and can be configured to cut down to a depth of 60in (1524mm). A reversing air motor is required and part of the EICC Kit, run forward to advance the tooling, then backwards to retract the tooling prior to extraction and completion.
Features:
Internal casing cuts from 7in (179mm) to 13 3/8in (340mm) casings
Configurable to cut to an internal depth of 60in (1524mm)
Used in conjunction with DynaPrep MDSF based ECC External Casing Cutter
Requires universal or custom wellhead adaptor, sold separately
