Angles up to 60 degrees
Here at Charles Day, our unrivalled metal profiling capabilities ensure the best quality parts are procured in a rapid turnaround. Offering some of the very best in metal profiling, we can provide weld preps and chamfers in angles up to 60 degrees on plates between 6mm to 60mm (greater thicknesses are available on request).
Weld preparation of metal parts carried out during the profiling process helps our customers save both time and money. Combining the cutting and beveling processes from a single source reduces the number of steps within the supply chain; improving efficiency and saving you money overall. We are also able to create expert weld preps on laser, waterjet, flame and plasma cut parts.
With industry-defining capabilities available on-site, we are able to produce top-face and bottom-face (or a combination of both) edge preps between 15° – 60°. Preps are commonly requested on metals such as stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminium, but we can also preform bevels on tough metals such as wear plate, duplex, super duplex, and Inconel.
Our weld preparations are suitable for single and double-sided, partial and full-penetration butt welds.
Weld Joint Configurations At Charles Day
Due to our unrivalled facilities, we are able to procure a range of joint configurations, some of which include…
Single Weld Prep
Also known as a bevel cut, the desired angle of the edge prep goes completely through the thickness of the plate.
Weld Prep With Root Face
Sometimes referred to as a chamfer, the contour of the edge prep only penetrates a proportion of the material thickness, leaving a partially flat edge.
Compound Weld Prep
Two different angle bevels are carried out on a single face.
Double Weld Prep With Root Face
A double weld prep features a bevel/chamfer on both the top face and bottom face of the plate.
Double Weld Prep Alternative Angles
A double weld prep features a bevel/chamfer on both the top face and bottom face of the plate.
J Weld Prep
Unlike straight chamfers, a J prep works off a set radius in order to create a smooth, curved edge.
