TFON Bevel Wizard® TF-F 8030 L
The TF-F 8030 L is a plate beveling machine for 4 to 100 mm cut parts from 60 to 3000 mm long; it bevels small and mid-size parts for welding. Weld edges on small and mid-size parts are the working range of the TFON Bevel Wizard® TF-F 8030 L. It bevels parts from 4 to 100 mm thick and from 60 to 3000 mm long, at angles from -30° to +80°. Part width ranges from 100 to 1250 mm, and the table carries up to 3,000 kg. It suits fabrication shops that receive a wide variety of short and mid-length cut parts for weld preparation.
Before/After
Which job does this machine solve?
- 60 mm minimum part length: short cut parts can be beveled as well.
- Part lengths up to 3000 mm and part widths from 100 to 1250 mm cover small and mid-size parts.
- A table load capacity of 3,000 kg allows thick, heavy parts to be processed on the table.
- 4 to 100 mm thickness and a working angle range of -30° to +80°; the bevel angle is set to the welding procedure.
- Ø400 mm abrasive drum and a part feed speed of 1.0 to 4.0 m/min.
Frequently asked questions
What reference is the bevel angle measured from?
From the reference stated on the drawing. An angle measured from the cut edge is not the same number as an angle measured from the plate surface, so the reference must be written down. The TF-F 8030 L is set within a working angle range of -30° to +80°.
How are the root face and root gap defined?
Both come from the drawing or the welding procedure; neither can be derived from plate thickness alone. The root face is the unbeveled land left at the foot of the prepared edge and is checked at defined points along the edge, including near the ends. The root gap is the spacing between the parts when they are assembled; the TF-F 8030 L prepares the edge, the root gap is created at assembly.
What part dimensions does the TFON Bevel Wizard® TF-F 8030 L handle?
The TFON Bevel Wizard® TF-F 8030 L works on parts from 4 to 100 mm thick, 60 to 3000 mm long and 100 to 1250 mm wide. The table load capacity is 3,000 kg. For plate longer than 3000 mm, the TF-C 8010 L is the reference.
Can one machine both bevel and deburr?
Beveling and deburring are separate operations and one does not replace the other. Beveling deliberately creates a surface at a defined angle on the edge; deburring removes unwanted material. At TFON, beveling is done on Bevel Wizard® machines, deburring and edge rounding on Surfacer® machines.
