Precision Bevelling Solutions for the Marine Industry:
New CLIMAX Plate Bevelling Machines now in operation
S.F.E. Group is proud to introduce two advanced CLIMAX automatic plate edge milling machines,
the EM-series —strategically enhancing the company’s capacity to serve the commercial marine and shipbuilding sectors. These machines deliver exceptional performance for precision bevelling and weld edge preparation, ensuring compliance with the most demanding industry standards.
Engineered for cold milling, both machines produce non-oxidized, clean edge surfaces, essential
for high-quality marine welding applications.
Their electric-powered design (400V or 480V) provides reliable, efficient operation with reduced environmental impact—ideal for shipyards
and offshore construction facilities prioritizing sustainability and productivity.
EM90: High-Performance Bevelling and Inconel Clad Removal
The EM90 machine supports V and Y bevels with a bevel angle range from 0° to 90°, and features a powerful Inconel clad removal capability
up to 1.6” (40 mm). This is particularly valuable in shipbuilding and marine repair operations where corrosion-resistant
materials are common and precise clad removal is crucial for proper joint integrity.
EM60: Dual-Side Bevelling with Multi-Angle Flexibility
The EM60 offers beveling for V, Y,
K, and X profiles between 0° and 60°. It is equipped with
a rotating milling
head (180°) and bi- directional plate travel, allowing it to bevel both sides of a plate without repositioning— significantly reducing handling time and increasing fabrication throughput. This feature is especially advantageous in large-
scale marine structure assembly where speed and precision are critical.
Built for Marine-Grade Materials
Both machines are capable of processing
steel, exotic alloys, aluminum, aluminum alloys,
and copper—materials frequently used in the construction of hulls, bulkheads, tanks, and pressure vessels. The high-precision milling cutters deliver exceptional surface finishes, minimizing post- processing and ensuring optimal weld readiness.
These CLIMAX machines are not only highly efficient and precise, but also easy to operate, aligning with the marine industry’s move toward more automated fabrication processes.
