The #87b Elliptical Flanging Machine is derived from the Blue Valley model 87 Flanging Machine design, used primarily for truck and trailer tank heads. Flat heads and dished heads (9" maximum depth of dish) can be produced on the HE1, using the equipment that is standard on the machine. Reverse dished heads can be accommodated with additional center spacing. Central to the functionality of the #87b is its interchangeable upper roll, which plays a crucial role in determining the inside radius—also known as the knuckle radius—of the flange being produced.
