PHI end-finishing machines are the end result of more than forty years experience in producing tube-processing equipment (as
Leonard Precision until 1969 and as Conrac’s Machine Tool Division until 1985).
There is a standard machine in the PHI line for almost any tube or pipe end-finishing requirement— flaring, double flaring, bead-
ing, squaring, deburring, or flanging—for applications ranging from 1/8” light-wall tubing to heavy 8” pipe.
To increase efficiency, every PHI machine features simplified setup procedures with minimum time loss in small-lot production

DF MACHINE
The Model DF is a high-production unit, allowing the production of up
to 600 double flares per hour. The machine is operated by a single lever
which activates the two steps required to form a double flare. No elec-
tricity is required. All operations are pneumatically powered.
The Model DF is a double-lap flaring machine which produces a double-
thickness flare. It will also produce a single-thickness flare and an upset
bead.
The machine forms double-lap flares to precise 37° and 45° dimensions
within MS and SAE specifications. Single flares and beads are also done
with precision and within specifications — every time.

labor is not needed to operate the machine, nor to bolt the flanges together
— entirely eliminating the need for skilled labor in joining pipe sections.
A complete tooling change can be performed in just minutes. Once the pipe
is in place, the flange is formed in minutes. The whole operation — install
tooling (if required), insert pipe, form the flange, remove the pipe — requires
a maximum of 5 minutes. This compares favorably to the approximately 45
minutes required to weld a flange onto the pipe.

 AUTOMATIC STEEL BEAM WELDER

For Fast Fabrication of Quality

“H” Beams...
You can now manufacture custom beams continu-
ously with minimum delays for changing beam sizes
or shapes. The PHI Automatic Steel Beam Welder
gives your operation higher productivity, on both
straight and tapered steel beams. It automatically
welds both flanges of the beam at once, delivering
the penetration you need on up to 1/2” steel web
and 1-1/2” flange—all in one operation, one pass,
and from one side. The PHI system produces a
fillet weld between the web and flange. Welds are
uniform and of the quality demanded by construc-
tion codes.
Working at a convenient push-button console, the
operator presses the start button. The machine auto-
matically holds the steel in position, while the work
piece is fed under the two weld heads. Pressure and
guide rollers maintain accurate alignment of web
and flanges. All guides are easily adjustable to match
the dimensions of the beam section. Welding is per- :,'(9$5,(7 <2)%($06+$3(6

 SEAM WELDER
TACKING FIXTURE
SEAM WELDER
The Seam Welder is used to join separate web sections with a 100%
welded seam and to fabricate long webs from short sections or to join
sections of different thickness.
The two pieces to be joined are aligned against an edge guide and clamped
in position by means of air cylinders. The grooved copper back-up plate
is brought to seam tightly against the lower side of the joint. The welding
head travels along the joint and welds it by single-wire submerged arc.
Clamps are released and web is conveyed to the tacking fixture.
Welding equipment consists of welding head with flux hopper, travel
carriage, controls and 1,000 Amp. power source.
A flux recovery system is provided to dispense and recover welding flux.
The Seam Welder Hydraulic Power Unit and Electric Controls are also
used to drive the conveyors at entrance and exit of the Seam Welder.

TACKING FIXTURE
The tacking fixture is used to assemble the beam prior to the Main
Welder.
The web and flanges are brought in from the seam welder and flange
storage racks respectively, transported to the tacking fixture and
positioned prior to tacking the leading edge of the beam.
Loading of the flanges on the conveyors can be done manually by an
operator or automatically, using PHI’s flange-loading Gantry.
The two flanges are placed on the conveyor section on opposite sides of
the web, rotated into the vertical position and held by magnetic guide
rollers. The three pieces are advanced into position against a retractable
stop and hydraulically clamped in their proper relative position.
The operator manually tack welds them together. Clamps are released,
and the tack-welded beam is conveyed to the welder.
After initial adjustment of clamp positions for the first beam, the
operator controls all material movement from the control panel for all
subsequent beams of the same size.

ELECTRIC CONTROLS
The Electrical Control Panel on the Main Welder provides maximum system control flexibility. The Welder can be operated in
either Manual Mode or Automatic Mode.
In Manual Mode, the sequence of operations is achieved by using individual controls located on the control panel. Welding
parameters also are set individually on each welding head controller.
In Automatic Mode, the PLC control increases “arc-on” time by eliminating manual operations.
Using the “IN” conveyor, operator brings the beam to the starting position, chooses one of the preset welding programs (welding
speed, wire speed and voltage), and pushes the “START” button.
Total sequence of operations, including movement of the beam with welding speed, positioning of the welding heads, start and
stop of the welding process on stationery and moveable sides, activation of web holding, copper back-up assemblies and pressure
cylinders, and STOP of the operation will be accomplished automatically.
The PLC provides the accuracy, reliability, versatility quality, and quick change of the parameters for different welding applications.
The interface between operator and machine is through an Allen Bradley Panel View, which has been programmed by PHI to display all
parameters of a welding program, and to display on different screens input/output status for trouble­shooting and diagnostics.
Programming of welding parameters for different beam sections is also accomplished through the panel view screens.

months from the date of shipment, and proves to be defective upon inspection by Seller. Results of ordinary wear and
tear, improper operation or maintenance, or use of corrosive or abrasive materials shall not be considered a defect in
material or workmanship. This warranty covers only those parts manufactured by Seller. Seller makes no warranty as to
any other part, and Purchaser shall have, as to such part, only the benefit of such warranty as its manufacturer may give
and which, by terms of such warranty, is available to Purchaser from the Seller. Any modifications to the equipment sold
by Seller, which have not been authorized by Seller, void this warranty and any product liabilities.

If Seller repairs or replaces a part pursuant to the terms of this warranty, Seller’s warranty will not extend beyond twelve
(12) months from the original date of purchase of the machine.

In no event shall the Seller be responsible for any special, incidental, consequential or tort damages, damages arising
from equipment downtime, or exemplary or punitive damages, whether resulting from loss of use, delay of delivery, loss
of profits, loss of business or otherwise arising out of or in connection with the goods, the performance of the goods, or
Seller’s provision of the goods or other events relating to the goods even if Seller has been advised of the possibility of
such damages.
