Manufacturing Solutions, Inc. (MSI) was established in 1992 to provide industry with well-designed, dependable, easy-to-operate machinery. Their engineers have more than 60 years of experience in real-life manufacturing applications. MSI designs and manufactures machinery for the industrial pipe, tube, and fastener industries.

MSI will be demonstrating a Model C8H ChamferMate® in booth #7739 at The OTC. The ChamferMate® line of beveling and chamfering machines are heavy-duty production equipment designed to safely and efficiently bevel pipe or tubing, or chamfer bar stock. These machines are ideal for the fastener, pipe fabrication, and tube processing industries.

The ChamferMate® Model C8H is a heavy-duty, hydraulic-powered pipe beveling machine with capacity up to 8” pipe. With 20 HP, the C8H has the power to machine weld bevels and other forms on the end of heavy wall pipe and tubing within its range.

An MSI customer testimonial regarding the C8H:

“We took delivery of this machine in February, and have chamfered pipe from 2″ to 8″ in diameter. For the pipe we cut, it takes an average of 20 seconds per chamfer. This allows us to have our saw operators doing the chamfering in line with the sawing. Our operators can set a part on the saw and then set up the bevel while the next part is being sawed. In fact, the process is so much more efficient, we can have the same operator also add the roll stencil marking to the pipe. A pipe now comes out of this station ready to weld.”

The ChamferMate® machines can bevel carbon, alloy, and stainless steels. As well as: zirconium, titanium, and most other grades of materials. Utilizing non-skilled labor and standard off-the-shelf carbide inserts makes the machines very cost-effective to operate. A fully enclosed cutting area with chip collection drawer provides a safe working environment.
MSI can customize standard machines for double-end operation as well as add material handling options to facilitate handling of pipe or bar stock. Machines can be either fully automatic or manually operated.

Manufacturing Solutions is located in Beaumont, Texas and builds chamfering and pipe beveling machines, marking equipment, hydraulic bar shears, nut assembly tables, cylindrical parts feeders, bolt cross drills, and bolt-shortening tools. MSI also provides services to an international base in a variety of industries. In addition to their line of standard machines, MSI can produce custom machinery, engineered and designed, to fit your unique productions needs. MSI is continually expanding their product line and their custom machinery is not limited to any particular industry.
