I.D. Mount Cut/Bevel

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document discusses the applications of E.H. Wachs' Split Frame I.D. Mount Cut/Bevel machines, particularly in scenarios where O.D. clearance is limited or I.D. pipe cutting is necessary.
Applications:
  • Inside Vessel Cutting: The machine is used to perform cuts and weld preparations from inside a 28” x 1” wall vessel to remove a hemi head, where conventional O.D. mounting is not feasible.
  • Nuclear Power Plant Pipe Cutting: The machine is employed to cut a 36” x 1/2” pipe to remove a defective flange with minimal radial clearance (2” max) from the O.D. After flange removal, a conventional weld prep is machined on the pipe.
Visual Aids:
  • Mock-ups and on-site photos illustrate the fixturing legs, cutting operation, and machine setup at the bottom of a 30 ft. vertical vessel for hemi head removal and preparation for new installation.
  • Images show the I.D. mount split frame and stabilizing fixture from the back of the machine.
