OverviewThe CLIMAX FF1200 OD Mount Flange Facer is designed for safe field flange facing and flexible on-site machining. It machines flanges up to 12.5 in (317.5 mm) diameter without attachments and is intended for oil, gas and chemical field applications where precision and throughput are required.
Key features and benefits- Safety features:
- Feed control located on the outside of the machine to avoid operator reach into the unit.
- E-stop for immediate stops and controlled restart.
- Low pressure drop-out to prevent unintended restarts after loss of air supply.
- CE certified.
- Flexibility and productivity:
- One machine handles seven flange types without attachments: Flat face, Raised face, Ring type joints (RTJ), Tongue & groove, Lens ring, Grayloc (hub profile), Compact flanges.
- Available in three model sizes to machine up to 12.5, 24.5 or 36.5 in (317.5, 622.3 or 927.1 mm) diameter.
- Automatic and variable feed standard on both radial and axial feeds enabling up to 30% time savings versus conventional methods.
- Adjust feed rate during machining; start/stop feed during operation to machine to a shoulder; supports higher RPM and improved surface finish.
- Tool head and tool bit rotate independently to any angle; tool head presets at 0°, 23°, and -23°.
- Design and serviceability:
- No broken shear pin required after a crash — reset and continue work.
- Chucking mechanism and bearing arrangement provide rigidity for consistent machining performance.
- Smooth-running rotational drive for consistent surface finish.
