• The Steelmax ABM1218 is a portable beveling machine capable of producing weld-ready bevels on flat plates of any shearable material up to 100,000 psi tensile strength. The ABM1218 FR uses a shearing process that is silent and fast. A powerful 3 horsepower electric motor drives the machine at speeds up to 8.5 feet per minute, making it the most powerful machine in its class. The machine can produce a 1/2” (12 mm) wide bevel in a single pass and can produce a maximum 3/4” (18 mm) wide bevel on plates or round tubes from 1/4” (6 mm) to 1-9/16” (40 mm) thick in multiple passes. A 30° bevel angle attachment is included and interchangeable bevel angle attachments are available for 22.5°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 37.5° and 45° bevels. The machine is easily inverted to bevel the underside of the plate – eliminating the need to flip the material – improving operational safety and increasing productivity. The ABM1218 FR produces no smoke or dust and almost no noise. Bevels are produced without thermal distortion and the material is weld-ready without additional grinding to remove dross, slag or heat affected zone (HAZ). FEATURES

  • Heavy Duty (Auto Feeding), Inverting Plate Beveling Machine Improves Safety & Reduces Material Handling

    The Steelmax ABM 50 auto feeding plate beveling machine produces accurate, high-quality, machined single and double-sided bevels on plates from 5/16” to 3-1/8” (8-80 mm) thick using a high-speed rotary milling head with replaceable carbide inserts. The machine features an infinitely adjustable bevel angle between 15 and 60 degrees and is capable of producing bevels up to 2” (50 mm) wide. The ABM 50 quickly inverts to produce double-side bevels without having to flip the plate - enhancing safety and reducing material handling time and expense. The ABM 50 incorporates onboard spindle speed adjustment to optimally bevel ferrous and non-ferrous materials and excels in beveling high tensile strength materials up to 450,000 PSI. FEATURES
    • Self-feeding for consistent bevel geometry from end-to-end
    • Real-time measurement and on-screen display of exact bevel geometry and milling parameters
    • Variable spindle speed for milling ferrous and non-ferrous materials including high tensile strength materials
    • 180° inversion allows for quick and easy creation of double-sided bevels
    • Rotary milling head with carbide inserts produces an accurate, high-quality finish without thermal distortion that is weld ready
    • Built-in overload protection
    • Floating trolley compensates for uneven floors
    • Heavy Duty Portable Machine that can easily be moved throughout the shop

  • The ABM-29 Auto-Feed Double-Side Heavy Duty Portable Beveler by Steelmax is designed to meet the most demanding quality and efficiency requirements of the metalworking industry. This self-propelled machine can bevel up to 3/4 inches in width in a single pass, making it ideal for heavy plate machining. Utilizing a shearing method, the ABM-29 performs double-sided bevels between 20 and 45 degrees on various steels, including stainless and special steel plates, without the need to turn the plate over increasing worker safety.
    Equipped with an ergonomically designed trolley, the ABM-29 offers easy transport and storage. It features precise adjustment capabilities for bevel angle, bevel depth, and material thickness, ensuring high precision and consistency. The automatic feed allows the machine to travel along the top and bottom edges of the plate at speeds of up to 5-1/2 feet per minute, enhancing productivity and reducing manual labor. For added versatility, the ABM-29 can operate in a stationary mode for machining smaller workpieces or pipes with an internal diameter greater than 6 inches. The built-in ergonomic trolley includes a hydraulic height adjustment from 27 to 39 inches, providing flexibility and ease of use. The Steelmax ABM-29 delivers unparalleled quality, precision, and efficiency in beveling applications.

    Features

    • Automatically moves along the edge of the plate at speeds of up to 5.5 feet/min. in the top and inverted positions • Built-in ergonomic trolley to facilitate top & bottom beveling and height adjustment between 685 and 1000 mm • Stationary operation is     possible for machining small workpieces • Pipes machining with ID > 150 mm (6”) • Powerful electric motor for effective and comfortable operation • Overload protection to prevent motor damage • Reversing spindle rotation to retract the tool if it gets stuck • ABM-29 is a low-noise machine
