FI26E On-Site Flange Facing for Kobe Steel Group
MT Portable Machine's field machining team recently provided high-quality on-site flange face refurbishment services for a long-term client, Kobe Steel Group, reinforcing its expertise in industrial maintenance and repair. This service involved restoring and lightly machining flange faces that had been damaged due to long-term storage or extended periods of non-use, a common challenge in industrial environments.
For this project, the team deployed the FI26E Flange Facing Machine, a compact and highly flexible device specifically designed for on-site flange resurfacing. Its lightweight split-frame design allows quick and easy installation in confined spaces or elevated work areas, making it ideal for complex industrial sites. The machine features an automatic radial feed system, ensuring precise material removal and consistent, uniform surface finishing.
The FI26E’s machining range spans from 120mm to 700mm, making it suitable for pressure vessel manufacturers, pipeline maintenance teams, and industrial repair services. Equipped with a high-torque drive system and adjustable cutting speeds, it can handle a variety of flange materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and specialty alloys, while maintaining the flatness and sealing performance required by strict industry standards.
With the combination of MT Portable Machine’s field expertise and the FI26E’s performance capabilities, the team achieved fast turnaround without compromising safety, ensuring that all refurbished flanges met the client’s operational requirements.
On-site flange facing offers a cost-effective and efficient solution for industrial operators, eliminating the need to dismantle equipment for transport while guaranteeing high-precision surface restoration. In industries such as petrochemical, oil & gas, and power generation, maintaining flange integrity is critical for operational safety and leak prevention.
