2. Advantages of Special Made Sheet Plate End Milling Equipment:

1) Statistics Data: In the field of welding preparation on sheet metal plate fabrication, conventional standard Edge Milling Machine can meet around 90% customer demand;

2) Special Requirement: On the other hand, there exist certain applicating scenarios, that customers have specific requirement on steel beveling, based on and conditions and workpieces specifications;

3) Role and Usage: Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Milling Machine can help customers realizing set goal of customers with 100% perfect match, extending more capabilities of the Edge Beveling Machine.

B. Coverage and Applications of Special Made Sheet Plate End Milling Equipment:

There is no consistent criterion on structure and technical characteristics of special made Edge Milling Machine. Instead, based on specific customer expectation, applicating cases of these tailor made sheet plate Edge Beveling Machine differs case by case:

1. Wuxi JACK Exclusively Owned Hydraulic Drive Auxiliary Workpiece Loading Unit in Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Milling Machine:

1) Expectation from Customers: Some customers hope material handling for their Large Size Plate End Milling Equipment, and hence with large size and heavy weight workpiece also, can be loaded into and unloaded from the large End Milling Machine, implemented in safe, easy and surefire way;

2) For this purpose, hydraulic drive auxiliary loading unit has been developed successfully by Wuxi JACK engineering team, and equipped onto our Sheet Metal Plate End Milling Machine. Shown in below photo:

3) Hydraulic oil cylinder drive supplementary steel plate handling mechanisms applied in Wuxi JACK sheet plate Edge Beveling Machine: (Fig.2)

2. Beyond Limit Working Stroke Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Beveling Machine:

1) Why Such Demand: Some customers expect additional stroke of steel plate edge milling, for making welding groove to be available in the Edge Milling Machine;

2) Applicable Cases: This is for condition of, in case small percentage of larger size workpieces sheet plate appeared, customers do not need to spend additional budget for purchasing another set of longer size Edge Milling Machine;

3) Applicable Specifications: Such special made sheet plate End Milling Equipment is often happened with medium stroke Edge Milling Machine: From 6000mm to 9000mm max. stroke;

4) Special Design: For this purpose, half enclosed mechanical frame structure, or called box structure mechanical main body of sheet plate End Milling Machine is developed by Wuxi JACK engineering team, replacing the conventional open style gantry beam Edge Milling Machine.

3. Production Line Application Special Made Sheet Plate End Milling Machine:

1) Background: Some customers plan to deploy sheet metal steel plate Edge Milling Machine in their production line, under the pretext of meeting flowing pace and TAKT of the production line;

2) Function: Such special made sheet plate Edge Beveling Machine is for producing welding grooves into desired type, completed on edges of workpieces steel plates;

3) Special Design: For this purpose, the corresponding custom made Edge Milling Machine will be designed and made in overall dimension and working stroke, which match with requirement of production line running, with End Milling Equipment mechanical structure fitting for working style of production line. Shown in below photo:

4) Production Line Application Wuxi JACK SXBJ-4 Tandem Running Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Milling Machine: (Fig.4)

4. Workpiece Three End Faces Beveling by means of Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Chamfering Machine:

1) Workpieces Two Sides Milling: Most majority, or conventional sheet metal steel plate Edge Milling Machine produce welding groove on two sides of workpiece, completed by means of one or two times edge milling stroke in the Edge Beveling Machine;

2) Demand on Workpieces Three Sides Milling: Meanwhile, some customers need to have their large size workpiece not only necessary to be edge milled along long side direction of workpiece, but also should have lateral side of workpiece end faced in the Edge Milling Machine;

3) New Design: For this purpose, a newly added dedicated milling cutter and its carriage for facing is installed at lateral side of Edge Milling Machine. Please check below photo:

4) Lateral Milling Unit installed in Wuxi JACK GFXBJ-23 heavy duty Special Made Sheet Plate Edge Beveling Machine: (Fig.5)

B. Example of Special Made Sheet Plate End Milling Equipment: Tailor Made Five Heads Configuration High Power Large Edge Milling Machine:

1. Constructure and Design Change of Four or Five Heads Configuration Large Scale Edge Milling Machine:

1) There is a Chinese saying: “Quantitative change brings along qualitative change”. With substantial increasement of size and quantity of workpieces steel plate in the End Milling Equipment, structure of the Large Edge Milling Machine is changed substantially accordingly;

2) Such modification on structure of the large sheet plate End Milling Equipment is based on specific applicating scenario. Here we give several common adopted updates;

2. Make the Original Fixed Working Table Movable in the Sheet Plate End Milling Equipment:

1) Either the entire mechanical main body of the large Edge Milling Machine: Working table and pressing beam, are changed from original stationary type to movable type;

2) The additional movement of Edge Milling Machine main frame is along short side direction of workpiece steel plate, within the range of 1,000 mm stroke, giving larger range of workpiece width that can be processed in this special made sheet plate Edge Beveling Machine. Please check below photo:

3) Mechanical frame moving style Wuxi JACK SXBJ-21 Special Made Sheet Plate End Milling Machine: (Fig.6)

4) For more detail, please check product section of “Large Gantry Longitudinal Moving FXBJ-21 Four Heads Configuration Edge Milling Machine”;

3. Make the Original Integral Stationary Pressing Beam Movable in the Large Size Sheet Plate Edge Beveling Machine:

1) Demand: Sometimes, when customers need to have edge grooving also on the 3^rd side of workpiece: Steel plate with width up to 4,000mm;

2) Loose Fitting Pressing Beam: Under such conditions, pressing beam of the End Milling Machine is split from working table of the Edge Milling Machine, making it hanging on a pair of fixed side gantries, and movable overhead within the stroke of 1,200 mm. Please check below photo:

3) Pressing Beam Movable Wuxi JACK GFXBJ-23 special made large sheet plate Edge Milling Machine: (Fig.7)

4) For more detail, please check product section of “Super Large Beam Hanging style GFXBJ-23 Four Heads configuration Edge Milling Machine”;

4. In a nutshell, with these ingenious variations on the Large Scale heavy duty sheet plate End Milling Equipment, the special made Edge Milling Machine gets more degree of freedom, more flexible and applicable, for fulfilling challenging job of large metal plate edge beveling.
