UKF
Universal Edge Beveller Type UKF
The belt grinding machine for grinding edges and bevels for weld seam preparation without critical heat influence on the material.
The Universal Edge Beveller Type UKF is designed for the high requirements of weld seam preparation without any critical heat influence on the material / edges. The flexible machine concept, with different table sizes, pressure bars and levels of automation, will be specified for customers requirements.
The high-performance belt grinding process meets all requirements of precision bevels and strips, a clean and metallic-blank seam surface and minimal heat influence.

Further information
- Savings of approx. 50% – 60% of machining time by higher motor power and material removal rate in comparison to milling lathes or plasma-burning
- Significant less investment and production costs than milling lathes or plasma cutter
- Low operating costs
- With the state of the art grinding belts a high removal and lifetime rate by constant quality can be reached. There is only a very low heat influence on the material surface, which grants a highly acceptance for further welding and surface preparation without additional work required
- The grinding belt reaches a speed up to 38 m/s
- Bevel angle from -45° up to +88° in one operation without intermediate handling and setup
- By using the very rigid table surface and movable stop-units the workpieces can be easily and repeatable positioned. The downtime for setup will be reduced to a minimum
- Very good access from the front side
- Controls S7 with OP-Panel is easily and safe to use from operator
- The UKF allows to grind also pockets on the bevel edges in one operation
- All Parameters, like dimensions, speeds, pressure, removal profiles, overlapping etc. are easy to program and setup
- Integrated calculation tool for easy programming: input of bevel angle and depth, length and material is enough to produce a new program
- Quick change of grinding belt within a minute by self-centering of belts
- High reliability of grinding belts by automated oscillation
UKF 2.0 vs. UKF 3.0 vs. UKF 4.0: THE DIFFERENCES
- UKF 2.0 has a closed sideframe. No movement through the working area for longer workpieces possible
- UKF 2.0 offers the ideal price-performace-ration, thus is a perfect entry-level machine
- UKF 3.0 und UKF 4.0 have an open sideframe. Movement through the working area for longer workpieces possible
- UKF 4.0 has considerably higher workpiece clamping power per meter and is thus suitable for large or heavy workpieces
