Clamshell Split-Frame Machine Features Indexable Beveling Tool Modules

A new clamshell split-frame machine for beveling and end prepping tube and pipe that features a new indexable module with a double-edged insert bit has been introduced by Esco Tool of Holliston, Massachusetts.

The Esco COHOG Split-Frame Machine features a new module that mounts to the tool slide and holds a pre-angled bit of 30 °, 37-1/2 °, or custom angles that are easy to change and use double-edge insert bits which are also easily changed. This clamshell machine has a robust stationary ring machined from 7075 aluminum alloy that is hard coated and supports a custom steel forged, heat-treated, and nickel-plated rotating ring.

Available with pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic power, the Esco COHOG Split-Frame Machine has indexable tooling with slides and trip mechanisms and a marked locating system. Providing vibration-free operation, it can be precisely aligned and quickly attached without shims or guesswork and the rotating ring is supported by precision-tuned eccentric bearings.
