The facers are suitable for use in power generation facilities, petrochemical plants, ship building and maintenance applications, and in the heavy equipment and mining industry.
Climax says that the new machines are the only flange facers on the market that let operators adjust the feed rate while the machine is still running, without having to reach into the machine. They can achieve infinitely variable feed rates from 0.002 to 0.035-inches/rev (0.0508 to 0.889 mm/rev).
The new flange facers also comply with the latest European CE safety standards.They features large, heavy-duty construction-grade bearings which shorten the time needed for repairs to equipment such as flanges on piping systems, heat exchangers, pump housings, hatch seat openings, and bearing mounts.
The machine’s turning arm and tool head rotate a full 360 degrees, creating a variety of chamfers, O-Ring grooves, and other angular surfaces, and generating phonographic finishes. Modular construction over the entire line minimizes the number of individual components and greatly simplifies machine set-up and tear down.
The new flange facer line includes the Climax FF6200,with a facing range from 20 to 50 inches (508 to 1270 mm); the Climax FF7200, with a facing range of 30 to 72 inches (762 to 1829 mm); and theClimax FF8200, with a facing range of 45 to 120 inches (1143 to 3048 mm).
