FM-1625 Pipe Beveling Machine
Electric or Pneumatic - Range 3/4" - 1.5/8" ID.
The Beveling Machine FM-1625 has a 3/4″ to 1.5/8″ internal diameter range. This machine is designed for facing, bevelling, and weld preparation on materials like stainless steel, duplex, and Inconel. It’s lightweight, compact, and can be operated by a single person, making it a more efficient alternative to traditional grinding operations. It’s also easy to handle and quick to set up, which makes it ideal for use in shutdown environments on condensers and heat exchangers.
A pipe beveling machine is a specialized tool used to create an angled edge (or bevel) at the end of a pipe. This bevel allows for better alignment and preparation for welding or joining pipes, ensuring strong, clean, and consistent welds. Beveling is essential in industries like construction, oil and gas, shipbuilding, and power plants where pipe installations require precision.
Common Bevel Angles:
- 30° to 45° are the most common bevel angles for welding preparation.
- Some machines allow custom angles or compound bevels (like J-bevels or U-bevels).
Applications:
- Pipe Welding: Beveled ends make it easier for welders to join pipes securely.
- Pipeline Construction: For pipelines carrying oil, gas, or chemicals.
- Boilers and Heat Exchangers: Precise bevels improve efficiency and reduce joint failures.
- Shipbuilding and Structural Fabrication: Ensures structural integrity in marine environments.

factors to consider when using A Beveling machine
- Degree of Angle: Use different applications for different beveling angles while maintaining the tolerance level’s angle.
- Bevel’s Length: Ensure a consistent length for smooth welding and a quality end product.
- Speed: Choose a beveling method that ensures the fastest cycle during the procedure.
- Avoid Heat: Avoid exposing metals to heat to prevent changing their microstructural features.
- Health First: Always wear protective gear to safeguard against harm to yourself and people around you.
