Pipe Beveling Machine – Creating Perfect Bevels for Durable Pipe Welding

Beveling refers to the process of giving a pipe or a plate an inclined shape to make its ends suitable for welding. Usually, pipes having thickness more than 3 mm undergo this process to have an inclined outer edge. This makes it easier to weld two pipes, thereby ensuring strong, precise and pressure resistant joint. Technically speaking, pipe bevellers create a standard angle of 37.5 degrees between the outer and the inner surfaces of a pipe. In addition, you can also use pipe beveling machine to create other angles, and some special forms, like J-Bevels on the pipe’s ends.

The need for beveling

The foremost purpose of beveling is to enable smooth pipe welding, which is an important necessity in the construction of heavy machine parts for assorted industries. Usually, thick pipes find it difficult to undergo sound pipe welding without proper weld preparation or beveling. Alternatively, the method is equally useful to smoothen the rough edges of the pipes. This makes them safe for use and contributes to their aesthetic appeal. The powerful joints created by pipe bevelers find their use in multiple applications, such as in power stations, chemical factories, pipe ducts, refineries and so on.
