SBM 500 Stationary Beveling Machine
The Steelmax SBM500 is a robust and efficient solution for beveling and deburring steel plate, angle, square/rectangular tubing and pipe.
The SBM500 features a high-speed rotary milling head with carbide inserts that produces a clean, milled surface without thermal distortion or a heat affected zone. Variable feed rates and precise milling head speed control produce repeatable and accurately milled weld preparations in both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, improving part fit-up resulting in better welds. Accurate welding preparation reduces over welding, defect repair and production time, significantly lowering production costs. With the capacity to produce bevels up to 1-3/16” wide on plates up to 4” thick, the SBM500 is a unique solution for fabricators that need a high throughput beveling solution.
Features of the SBM 500
- Powerful 7,500-Watt electric motor for continuous operation
- Variable auto-feed to bevel both ferrous and non-ferrous materials
- Continuously adjustable bevel angle from 15 to 60 degrees
- Simple depth of cut adjustment
- High-speed rotary milling head with 10 replaceable carbide inserts produces a clean, milled surface free of thermal distortion with no heat affected zone
- Multiple cutting insert designs for optimal performance on different materials
- Versatile tabletop operation permits hand feeding of small plates, square/rectangular tubing, pipe, angle iron and round stock
- Optional table extensions accommodate longer material
- Produces bevel widths up to 1-3/16” (30 mm)
- Plate thicknesses up to 4” (100 mm)
