PREP 2 Pipe Bevelling Machines
The smallest in our range of i/d locking, direct in-line feed end prep machines. The PREP 2 is small,
light weight, yet powerful, in electric, battery (110v or 220v) or pneumatic drive form. A 4-jaw tool holder (chuck) allows use of up to 4 formed tools to enable weld preparation of thin wall tube, or heavy wall pipe. Simultaneous external and internal bevelling and facing of tubes is simple, ideal for accurate repetitive work. Its size, power, and functionality, make it extremely popular in high volume heat exchanger work, tube facing, weld removal, and J-prepping of the tube plate. Also used extensively on power station shutdowns for boiler panel bevels.
-
Functions: External bevelling / internal bevelling / elbow and fittings bevelling / facing, counter-boring / weld removal / J-prepping and facing of tube plate
-
Materials: Any kind of steel and exotic alloy
-
Power: Pneumatic, electric or battery (110v or 220v)
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
The PREP 2 is torque reactive. This means that the pipe or tube does not have to be fixed to be bevelled, making it particularly useful on-site, in maintenance and repair situations. This is due to the design and strength of the thru shaft system that locks to the bore of the pipe.
The jaw system itself consists of 3 equilateral positioned machined jaw segments, retained and locked on an inner, ‘grooved’ expansion shaft. These grooves keep the jaws held securely in position, unlike other systems that use a metal or rubber bands for jaw retention. As the expansion nut is tightened, the jaws expand, locking tightly, and square to the bore of the pipe.
The machine body is CNC machined out of solid aluminum and nickel plated. This ensures strength and leads to precise tolerances on all components, resulting in a stable heavy duty machine that does not move under load, we also ensure all components are treated utilising the latest technologies to ensure durability.
