Heavy plate processing: Beating the giants
Beating the giants: tough metal, smooth result
From thermal cutting to the perfect component: deburring and rounding of warped heavy plates
Whether you need to deburr distorted flame-cut or plasma blanks, remove hard laser burrs or achieve precise edge rounding - WEBER knows your requirements and offers a wide range of standardised entry-level machines through to customised individual solutions.
With innovative grinding and deburring technology, we optimise your machining process: less effort, perfect results - all in a single pass or without prior turning, if required.
With WEBER, you can turn challenges into productive processes. Our technology ensures consistent quality, reduces downtime and makes even difficult machining steps predictable and reliable - regardless of material thickness or distortion.
Warped sheets: Height levelling up to 10 mm
Our movable units with WEBER float technology automatically compensate for distortions of up to 10 mm on the workpiece surface. Even heavily distorted sheets - especially with flame and plasma cuts - are processed reliably and evenly. Time-consuming straightening work is completely eliminated. The machine adapts flexibly to every workpiece so that you can start the efficient machining process straight away and save valuable time and resources.
Sanding on both sides in one pass
Thanks to modular machine technology, manual turning of the workpieces, which often weigh several tonnes, is completely eliminated: The top and bottom sides are processed in a single machine pass - for maximum efficiency and significantly increased work safety.
The unique combination of planetary heads, flexible bolts and double-rotating brushes enables you to achieve perfect slag removal, precise surface processing and exact edge rounding.
Save valuable time and resources with our efficient system.
Perfect deburring of flame-cut blanks
Large flame-cut parts, thick plates and hard burrs - thermal cutting processes such as flame or plasma cutting not only leave behind slag, but often also material distortions of up to 10 mm. The requirements are particularly high in bridge, ship and steel construction as well as in the offshore industry: large workpiece dimensions, considerable differences in thickness and manual turning processes make efficiency even more difficult.
With our innovative WEBER planetary head units, you can master these challenges: Multidirectional machining removes burrs and slag in a reliable process that is gentle on the tool. The result is a flawlessly deburred workpiece - perfectly prepared for all subsequent processes.
Beating the giants: Efficient slag removal
Thanks to our WEBER float technology, our units adapt dynamically and automatically compensate for height differences. This eliminates the need for time-consuming levelling work and you can start the efficient machining process straight away. Our sophisticated technology removes even heavy slag effortlessly and reaches every part of the workpiece thanks to the unique planetary head - for perfect results, ready for the next process step.
Fully automated feeding, turning and stacking
Powerful industrial robots feed and stack even heavy and large-format heavy plates safely and precisely. In combination with an innovative workpiece turner, components can be turned automatically so that both sides are deburred in a continuous process - without manual intervention. This reduces set-up times, increases productivity, reduces the workload on your employees and ensures consistently high quality. Our intelligent workpiece recognition with 3D image processing adapts flexibly to different geometries and sizes - versatile and future-proof. For an optimum combination of automation, process reliability and cost-effectiveness.
