Beveling Machine Piranha
The Piranha is a high-precision beveling machine for face-side pipe processing – compact, fully automated, and powerful. It is ideal for preparing weld seams on pipes with various geometries and wall thicknesses. A standout feature is the tactile measurement and adaptive machining based on the pipe contour. The system integrates seamlessly into existing production lines.
Two machining units – maximum flexibility
At the heart of the machine are two powerful 3-axis systems, each equipped with its own tool spindle. Each side has a separate tool magazine with up to seven places – including a tactile measuring sensor for precise detection of irregularities according to the roundess.
The company’s own software analyzes the measurement data and uses it to calculate an exact machining contour. This produces perfectly milled bevels – e.g. 30°, 37.5°, tulip seam and much more. – exactly to instructions and without any retooling.
