Plate Beveling Machines

The Welding Shop of the 21st Century has at its disposal many new innovative technologies to improve productivity. Advancements in process control, automation, filler metals and shielding gases have come at a rapid pace. Implementation of these advancements can lead to significant cost savings, improvement in quality and reduction in rework for many shops. It is however very important to remember that even with these advancements, basic welding fundamentals are still key to having a successful operation.

Steelmax offers a complete line of plate and pipe beveling solutions to meet even the most demanding steel fabrication requirements. From manual, hand-held machines to large automatic machines, Steelmax has you covered!

Precision, Repeatability & Weld-Ready Beveling Results

APB 32 Automatic Pipe Beveling System

Produce accurate weld preparation in minutes, mounts to outside edge of pipe/tubing with a minimum outside diameter of 10?. In standard configuration, the APB-32 can bevel pipe up to 32? in diameter.

pb5 pipe beveling machine

PB5 Pipe Beveling Machine

Extremely productive when full penetration welding is required, utilizing a self-centering mandrel the PB5 can be rapidly deployed from one pipe to another.

Manual Pipe Beveler

MPB 32 Pro Manual Pipe Beveling System

Create highly repeatable and consistent fit-up, dramatically reducing cycle times and improving work flow and producing accurate weld preparation in minutes.

pbm 1000 high speed pipe beveling system

PBM 1000 High Speed Pipe Beveling System

Designed for beveling and facing pipes, tanks or tubes with diameters ranging from 8? – 40?. Deployed from one pipe to another and produces accurate bevels in a fraction of the time required by traditional single point machining.

Consistent weld preparation is one of the most critical factors in producing high-quality pipe welds, and that starts with a reliable pipe beveling machine that delivers the same result every time. Steelmax pipe bevelers are engineered for precision and repeatability, producing clean, accurate bevel faces that meet weld prep requirements without secondary grinding or rework. Whether you’re working on structural pipe, pressure vessels, or process piping, our cold beveling systems mill or shear the bevel face cleanly, eliminating thermal distortion and heat-affected zones that can compromise weld integrity.

Choosing the Right Pipe Beveling for On-Site & Shop Use

The right pipe beveling machine depends on your pipe diameter range, wall thickness, bevel angle requirements, and where the work is being done. For shop environments, a larger automatic pipe beveler with precise feed control and repeatable settings delivers the efficiency and consistency that demanding fabrication schedules require. For field work and job site applications, a portable pipe beveling machine gives you the same weld-ready results on location without sacrificing accuracy.

If your work spans both plate and pipe preparation, our complete range of beveling machine and plate beveling machine solutions, combined with our welding automation expertise, means you can source the right tool for every part of the job from a single trusted partner.
