End Facing Machines

• Cuts precision bevels on thin or heavy wall pipe ends to prepare the joint for welding
• Hydraulically driven, it uses a positive gear driven feed in order to produce perfect bevels and or counter bores with any bevel arrangement
• Available for pipe sizes 16"- 60" (406.4 mm – 1524 mm)
• Machine counter bores or transition tapers to join pipes of different wall thickness
• Handles up to 4 tool holder assemblies
• Power sources can be supplied in diesel or electric over hydraulic

Expander Section

• Two interconnected expander units that utilize a hydraulic cylinder for expansion and retraction
• When expanded, the shoes lock the machine into the pipe and bring the pipe into roundness for the bevelling process

Rotary Cutting Head

• Consists of a gear driven cutter wheel with three major tool holders attached (a tool following wheel, a tool assembly and a tool actuating spring)
• Rotary cutting head is moved towards the pipe to create an accurate bevel
  
• A hydraulic motor rotates the cutting head via a pinion and ring gear

Power Unit

• Power sources can be supplied in diesel or electric over hydraulic to run the end preparation machine
