Joining metal blanks into a single structural part or engineering structure using welding equipment is a fairly common technology. Its implementation (especially when welding thick-walled workpieces) implies preliminary preparation of the places of future joints (seams). To carry out the procedure, use edge cutter or bevel cutter with which:
- The end part of the workpieces is being processed.
- The edge is chamfered at a specified angle and by a specified amount.
At the same time, this type of equipment, taking into account its operational use, can be manufactured for a stationary installation in a production workshop. Have a portable format for use in the so-called "field" conditions. Move using lifting equipment along the perimeter of a fixed part (usually large).
The main types of edging
Depending on the production tasks performed, the bevellers have a certain specificity of the structural device. There are 2 main types:
- Pipe bevellers - used as portable equipment when installing systems consisting of metal pipes, connected by welding. They are installed and fixed at the end of the pipe, after adjusting the angle and depth of the chamfer to be removed, the procedure is performed automatically using 3 (depending on the model) milling heads.
- Sheet metal edge cutters - these machines are multifunctional and are suitable for processing ferrous metals, various grades of steel and non-ferrous alloys.
At the same time, there are universal models of devices for chamfering, which can be used both for processing pipes and flat steel billets. You can get acquainted with the types and technical parameters using the website of the official supplier of this type of equipment directly from the manufacturer, the company "CEVISA". The models presented in the catalog are available or delivered to order on a contractual basis.
