Hydraulic Split Frame Pipe Cutting and Beveling Machine

A heavy-duty hydraulic split frame pipe cutting and beveling machine for on-site pipeline machining. Featuring external OD clamping, automatic tool feed and multiple machining capabilities, it handles pipe sizes from 1″ to 56″.

Key Features & Advantages

1. Two-Piece Split Frame Construction

The machine features a split housing that separates into two sections, allowing installation around existing pipelines, including continuous pipe sections and restricted-access locations. Its external clamping arrangement provides secure positioning during machining.

2. Hydraulic Drive for Heavy-Duty Machining

The hydraulic drive system provides consistent rotational power for cutting and beveling operations. It is suitable for demanding industrial environments where reliable machining performance is required.

3. Multiple Pipe End Machining Operations

One machine supports several machining processes, including:

  • Cold pipe cutting

  • Pipe end beveling

  • Simultaneous cutting and beveling

  • Counterboring and internal machining

  • Flange facing

  • External diameter machining

This multifunctional capability helps reduce equipment changes and simplifies on-site pipe preparation.

4. Broad Diameter Coverage

Available models accommodate pipe outside diameters from 25 mm to 1,430 mm (1″–56″). Different frame sizes and configurations are available to match specific pipe dimensions and machining requirements.

5. Flexible Beveling Configuration

The tool holder can be adjusted to achieve different bevel profiles and processing angles. This allows operators to prepare pipe ends according to welding procedures and project specifications.

6. Automatic Tool Feed

The machine features an automatic tool holder feed mechanism, helping maintain a controlled machining process and improve operational efficiency.

7. Adaptable to Different Installation Conditions

The split frame structure allows installation on horizontal, vertical, and in-wall pipelines. It is particularly suitable for maintenance and modification projects where dismantling the existing pipeline is impractical.

How to Select the Right Split Frame Pipe Beveler

Choosing the appropriate model depends on several important factors:

  • Pipe Outside Diameter: Select a model whose working range covers the actual pipe OD.

  • Pipe Wall Thickness: Choose standard or heavy-duty configurations according to the material thickness.

  • Machining Requirements: Specify whether the operation involves cutting, beveling, simultaneous cutting and beveling, counterboring, or flange facing.

  • Bevel Profile: Provide the required bevel angle and edge preparation geometry.

  • Installation Conditions: Consider pipeline orientation, available working space, and accessibility.

  • Drive Requirements: Confirm the hydraulic power supply and operating conditions for the selected configuration.

Providing these details helps determine a suitable machine model and tooling arrangement.
