Overview
The SFM 16-32 pipe facing machines consists of three basic elements: the base unit, the clamp (one large and one small) that fits into it and the generator that powers it up. The SFM 16-32's small clamp can fit a pipe range from 16 to 22 inches while the large clamp fits 24 to 32 inch pipe.

Main Frame The main frame features a strong metal construction to withstand high pressure. Quick connectors are located at the top of the machine to easily hook it up to the power unit. A mesh covering on the bearing wheel serves as a safety feature. The guard frame on the back protects both the control panel and push cylinder.

Tooling The bearing wheel features a number of tool-holding heads. Rotation and forward motion allow these heads to bevel the pipe.

Power Unit The power unit is a diesel-powered, independent unit which supplies the necessary hydraulic power to the pipe facing machine. The power unit's easy-to-read control panel controls the power unit. It is separate from the SFM's control panel, which controls the pipe facing machine.

Control Panel A control panel allows the operator to control the machine's main functions. An emergency button will block all hydraulic operations without affecting the diesel engine of the power unit.
