Maxi Chain Machine

Available in Electric, Manual or Pneumatic Models

The Chain Machine provides an economical way to cut and bevel pipe. One machine cuts any pipe diameter from 3" (76mm) to unlimited. Precision control of chain tension on the traveling wheels give Maxi Machines the straightest cutting capability of any chain-type machine available. For larger sizes above 18" (457mm) pipe diameter the use of a Guide Strip is recommended.

The most durable and accurate of Mathey Dearman’s Chain Machines, the Maxi is an excellent choice for cutting a wide range of large diameter horizontal or vertical pipes. Maxi Chain Machine’s three wheel positions and triple width chain makes it the most accurate chain driven pipe cutting and beveling machine on the market today. The machine is easily changed from one pipe diameter to another by adding or removing chain. Our Maxi Chain Machine is the ideal tool for flame cutting seamless, seam-welded, spiral-welded or out-of-round pipe. The Maxi chain machine cuts pipes from 4” (102mm) to unlimited.

The rack adjustable torch support of the Maxi permits the operator to pierce the pipe away from the cut line and quickly move the torch to the cut line to reduce notching. The machine comes standard with out-of-round device to lift the torch over seam or spiral welds and to lift or lower the torch over imperfection in the surface in the pipe surface. The machine maintains the torch at a constant distant from the pipe surface producing and even and consistent bevel on the pipe end regardless whether the pipe is round or out-of-round.

The Maxi Chain Machine can be fitted with a guide strip to obtain a precise square cut on horizontal or vertical pipes 18” and up. The guide strip allows the machine to produce the desired quality square cut without having to rotate the machine around the pipe to bring the chain into the proper alignment. By adding or removing Sections of the Guide Strip, the machine is adapted to various diameters of pipe.
