Wuxi JACK Long Stroke Double Heads Edge Milling Machine, 

Cuts Out All Types of Superior Quality Welding Grooves with High Efficiency!

Bevels on Edges of Sheet Metal Milled from Double Heads Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine

Strong Capability: Installed with 2 pieces of milling heads, a set of Steel Plate Edge Miller Machine can:
1) Mills out all types/ angles of welding grooves on straight/ top/ bottom edges of sheet metal;
2) With single pass of milling operation, without halfway stoppage for adjustment/ unloading/ reloading plates, greatly boosting productivity and chamfering effect;
Application: So, Double Heads Edge Milling Machine is very suitable on working sites involving processing on various complicated and common seen welding grooves, especially on long length steel plate:
50° K groove: (Fig.1)
30° X groove: (Fig.2)
Installed with round cutter, to mill out circular groove. Double sides R8 grooves: (Fig.3)

Installation of Double Milling Heads in Plate Edge Miller Welding Groove Processing Machine:

1) Under normal conditions, the installation of the 2 milling heads in one set of Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine have different orientations. The first milling head tilts downward, for milling on straight and top edge of sheet metal (0°~ 45° / 60°); The second milling head tilts upward, for milling on bottom edge of sheet metal (-45°~ 0°);
2) Sometimes under special requirement from customer, the 2 milling heads all have ability of performing straight/ top/ bottom edge beveling (-45°~ 45° / 60°). This further widens edge milling scope and deepens milling efficiency of Double Heads Edge Milling Machine:
Milling head for bottom edge milling
Milling head for straight and top edge milling
With special milling cutter for top surface milling

Technical Superiority of Wuxi JACK Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine

Wider Choice of Beveling Angle in Wuxi JACK Double Heads Edge Milling Machine:

1. Way of Edge Milling in Single and Double Heads Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine:

1) The default (standard) milling angle range is 0° ~ +45° for single head model, and -45° ~ +0° for bottom edge beveling in double heads models;
2) In single head model machine, first straight and upper edge beveling is processed on edge of steel plate; Suppose lower edge chamfering is also necessary, operator need to unload the steel plate from the Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine, flip the plate 180°, and load it into the machine again for the 2nd time edge milling;
3) For double heads models machine, basically the two sets of milling head work in pair: The first milling head performs straight and upper edge milling, while the second milling head performs lower edge milling, closely following the 1st milling head;


2. The Significance and Benefit of Widening Beveling Angle in Double Heads Edge Milling Machine:

As shown in the above photos:
1) Now, with wider range of milling angle 0° ~ +80°, -45° ~ +45°…Any piece of milling head can mill on both top and bottom edges of plate;
2) Which means, operator does not need to load the steel plate into the machine two times, and more variety of high quality finished angle can be acquired. This greatly increase productivity and versatility of the plate Edge Miller machine;

3. Besides, by means of HMI touch screen, any target angular milling within specification can be set at will. For all these wonderful traits, we discuss it in detail in the blog of: Wuxi JACK make delivery on a set of SXBJ125 Double Heads Edge Milling Machine.
