ABM 50 DD VS-Auto Feed Plate Beveler

PRICE

Self-Propelled Beveling Machine with Adjustable Spindle Speed Improves Efficiency & Safety

Presenting the ABM-50 DD VS from Steelmax, a leading authority on beveling machines. This self-propelled beveling machine delivers high-quality bevels up to 2 inches (50 mm) wide without thermal distortion or heat-affected zones on plates from 5/16 inch to 3 1/8 inches (8 mm to 80 mm) thick.

The adjustable spindle speed (500-1450 rpm) and feed rate, combined with an LED load monitoring system, ensure optimal performance across various materials, including stainless steel, duplex, alloys, and Hardox. The LED load monitoring system provides real-time feedback using green, yellow, and red indicators to help prevent motor overloading and protect the milling system under varying load conditions. This feature enhances the machine’s reliability and longevity, ensuring consistent, high-quality bevels.

The ability to continuously adjust bevel angles from 15° to 70°, makes it versatile for both large construction projects and workshop settings. The auto-feed drive system travels up to 3.9 feet (1.2 m) per minute, reducing operator effort while improving consistency and productivity. Spring-loaded castors ensure smooth operation over surface irregularities. making the ABM50 DD VS an indispensable tool for demanding beveling applications.

The high-performance rotary milling head with five 4-sided indexable inserts produces clean, cold-formed bevels, preserving material integrity. Rotatable and replaceable inserts maximize tool life, and a wide selection of insert types ensures high-quality performance across various steel materials. This mechanical approach eliminates the risk of heat-affected zones, maintaining the structural integrity and mechanical properties of the base materials.

The ABM-50 DD Vario is a robust, heavy-duty, versatile solution for demanding beveling applications, offering a highly efficient alternative to thermal or manual edge preparation. By reducing processing time and operational costs, this machine stands out as a valuable asset for any steel preparation task.
