EP 424 I.D. MOUNT END PREP The Speed Prep system is engaged by simply pulling the feed handle outward. This advanced feed mechanism creates the exact profile hands free with a ready to weld lathe quality finish and no heat affected zone. For simple form tool usage or as a dedicated flange facer, the Wachs EP 424 is also offered without the Speed Prep auto feed system. More versatile and powerful than any other machine of its kind, the Wachs EP 424 sets the standard in user friendly large diameter end prep machines. (DN = Metric Nominal Diameter) AUTO FEED SYSTEM The Wachs EP 424 with the patent pending new Speed Prep auto feed system is a precision I.D. mount end prep machine tool designed to bevel, compound bevel, J prep, face and counterbore pipe, fittings and valves. Utilizing our revolutionary mechanism that feeds simultaneously in the axial and radial planes, it’s able to machine any bevel or compound bevel without templates, incline tool slides or work stoppage. The EP 424 is powerful enough to form tool from 4” to 16” (DN100-400) through Schedule 160, and single point from 4” to 24” (DN100-600) up to a 6.5” (165mm) wall thickness. HANDS FREE Prior to the EP 424, most end prep machines required a mechanical template or incline tool slide to reproduce the complex preps called for by today’s processes. With E.H. Wachs Speed Prep system, it’s now possible to dial in the bevel angle and the land that works best for your application, all without work stoppages or additional components. • Speed Prep design feeds automatically in the radial and axial planes • Dial in the exact bevel, compound bevel and land that works best for you • Manual feed handle pulls out to engage Speed Prep auto feed system • Low friction bearing system provides maximum stability and eliminates chatter • Fully modular construction for fast, easy one man set up and operation With Speed Prep it’s now possible to dial in the exact weld prep needed for your application.
