Description
Clamping Mechanism:
- The split frame design allows the tool to part into two sections, facilitating its placement around the external circumference of in-line pipes, tubes, or flanges for secure clamping.
Versatility in Function:
- Capable of executing a variety of tasks, split frame clamshells adeptly handle cutting, beveling, single-pointing, counterboring, and facing flanges, accommodating a broad spectrum of pipe sizes.
Operational Design:
- Upon installation, the clamshell maintains a stable frame for support. A rotating ring affixed to this frame transports the machining modules and tooling necessary for operation.
Machining Dynamics:
- In action, the tooling modules on the rotating ring carry out the required operations, such as cutting and beveling, while the stationary frame remains firmly attached to the pipe.
