GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Model 103 REP
TM
Rapid End Prep Machine is a small, lightweight, beveling tool
designed for beveling the ends of pipe or tubing in preparation for welding.
The Model 103 REP
TM
Rapid End Prep Machine is mounted to the inside diameter of
the pipe or tube by means of a rigid, self-centering Pilot Mandrel.
There are various Pilot Mandrels which are available that will position the Model 103
REP
TM
Rapid End Prep Machine to pipe and/or tubing having an inside diameter range
from .42” through 3.16” (10.7 mm through 80.3 mm).
The Model 103 REP
TM
generates low torque during the machining operations.
The Model 103 REP
TM
features a Cutting Head Spindle offset from the motor to allow
installation and cutting of boiler tubes in a water wall panel.
The Model 103 REP
TM
features eight different diameter Cutting Heads which allow the
operator to select the optimum size head for the operation.
The smallest is the 1.85” (47.0 mm) dia Cutting Head which provides for a
minimum radial clearance.
The largest is the 3.60” (91.4 mm) dia Cutting Head which requires the most
radial clearance, but increases the Tool Bit capabilities and size of pipe or
tubing which may be effectively end prepped.
The end prep geometry is built into the Cutting Heads.
A Chip Deflection Shield is supplied with each Cutting Head.
