Tube Expander introduces light high-precision cold-cutting technology that is intended to improve the process of welding in terms of safety and efficiency.
Tube Expander is an acknowledged industrial manufacturer of tubing equipment and is pleased to introduce its new product, which is a pipe beveling tool designed to meet the requirements of heavy industrial edge beveling. The equipment was created specially to serve the oil and gas industry, ship building, power generating, and petrochemical sectors.
Redefining Speed and Precision in Pipe Preparation
The proper preparation of edges plays an essential role in the development of pipelines as well as plant facilities. Conventional techniques such as hand grinding and thermal cutting lead to inconsistent root faces, distortions, and higher man-hours. This new machine has been developed with an innovative design that involves the use of self-aligning mandrels and high-strength cutting heads that lock inside the pipe.
Due to the production of perfect V-bevel, compound bevel, J-prep, and counterbore in one operation, there will be no need for any secondary finishing process. For welders, it means fewer defects, less purge gas, and savings on the cost of re-welding.
Key Features and Engineering Innovations
Material Versatility and Compatibility: Works well with carbon steel, stainless steel, chrome moly, and high nickel alloys without sacrificing any tool life and surface finishes.
Portable and Compact Construction: Its compact body construction makes it possible for field technicians to work in quarter-turn clearances and tough working conditions.
Safety from Heat Affected Areas (HZA): No heat, sparks, or fumes that can be seen in the case of torch beveling.
Quick Setup: With the quick setup clamps, positioning becomes easier.
Applications that need portability without compromising on torque have found a perfect solution with the tubular tube beveller that gives the user ease in working with thin walled tubes and heat exchangers. The fabricator can utilize this tool in tight clearance applications, where access from the top and the side is very difficult.
The industrial standards of today leave no room for mistakes when it comes to welding. Hence, the design team at Tube Expander designed this machine to combine the toughness of power tools and precision of CNC edge repeatability in order to reduce labor costs while assuring proper joint geometry for radiographic welds.
