Double Head Tube Chamfering Solutions
A double head tube chamfering machine is designed to process the two ends of a tube in a coordinated machining cycle. It helps manufacturers achieve repeatable chamfering results while reducing manual repositioning and handling between operations.
The machine can be configured according to tube dimensions, material, chamfer geometry, workholding requirements and production workflow. For applications requiring dedicated pipe end preparation, ARMPRE also provides CNC Chamfering Machine solutions designed for efficient pipe cutting, facing and chamfering processes. Depending on the application, ARMPRE can provide standard machine configurations, customized fixtures and tooling, and production-oriented automation solutions.
ARMPRE supports the engineering process from application review and fixture development to sample machining, machine testing and FAT. Customers can therefore evaluate the proposed configuration against their actual workpieces before final delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tapping Machines
What is a tapping machine?
A tapping machine is industrial equipment designed to create internal threads in metal components. It provides accurate and consistent thread processing for automotive parts, hardware components, machinery parts and other industrial applications.
What materials can be processed?
The applicable material depends on the machine configuration, tooling and actual workpiece requirements. Common tube materials may include carbon steel and stainless steel, while other materials should be confirmed through application review and sample testing.
Can both ends of a tube be chamfered in one cycle?
Yes, a double-end configuration is designed to process both tube ends within the same coordinated machining cycle. The exact processing method depends on the tube dimensions, workholding arrangement, chamfer geometry and machine configuration.
Yes. Customized fixtures can be developed when the tube dimensions, geometry, material or production workflow require a dedicated workholding solution. Fixture design should be confirmed using the actual tube drawing and production requirements.
Can the machine process different tube sizes?
A machine can be configured for a defined range of tube sizes, while applications involving multiple tube specifications may require adaptable fixtures, tooling or configuration changes. The applicable range should be confirmed based on the actual workpieces.
Can the chamfering machine be automated?
Yes, automation can be considered for applications requiring automatic feeding, loading, unloading or integration with an existing production line. The appropriate automation level depends on production volume, workflow and material-handling requirements.
