Rebuilt & Ready: Used Leonard 3CPV End Finishing Machine, Like-New Performance at a Fraction of the Cost
A Second Life with First-Class Performance
If you’re in the market for a reliable, high-precision end-finishing machine without the steep cost of buying brand new, this used Leonard 3CPV is more than just a bargain — it’s a smart investment. This machine isn’t just used, it’s been fully restored, re-engineered, and rebuilt by professionals who understand what matters most in production environments: reliability, repeatability, and safety.
The Story Behind the Rebuild
Our customer didn’t just clean this machine up — they stripped it to bare metal, applied industrial-grade primer and paint, and then carried out a complete mechanical and electrical overhaul. Here’s what went into the transformation:
- All bearings and belts were replaced
- Schrader Bellows pneumatic cylinders fully rebuilt
- New motor starters and complete rewiring
- A VFD (variable frequency drive) installed for infinite speed control
- Machine tested, tuned, and ready for floor deployment
This unit originally had the auto-bead function option, but it’s not currently configured for automated operation and is being sold as a manual machine — a good fit for custom shops, R&D, and low-to-mid volume operations.
Machine Capabilities at a Glance
The Leonard 3CPV draws from the same design lineage as PHI’s tube and pipe end-finishing machines. Whether you’re working with mild steel, stainless, or aluminized tubing, this machine can square, deburr, flare, or bead with precision and repeatability.
What It Can Do:
- Single flaring: SAE 37° and 45°, including SAE AS4330 (formerly MS33584)
- Beading: meets SAE AS5131 (formerly MS33660)
- Deburring and squaring: smooth, concentric results for reliable downstream fitment
Need JIC, AN, ASME, or a custom angle? Tooling compatibility makes this machine flexible for your specific spec — ask us.
Who Is It For?
This Leonard 3CPV is a good fit for:
- Fabrication shops needing precision without full CNC automation
- Aerospace and automotive parts suppliers looking for fast, manual finishing
- Hydraulic and plumbing contractors working with flared and beaded connections
- Tube bender users looking to add reliable finishing downstream
Whether you’re running a prototype, a small production run, or repair work, this unit gets your tube ends square, spec-compliant, and ready to connect.
Why Choose a Rebuilt Leonard 3CPV?
Buying used can be risky — but when the rebuild is done right, you get industrial durability without the new-machine price tag, replaced parts and upgraded wiring that’s ready to plug in and run, modern VFD speed control for process tuning, and tested reliability at a fraction of what a new machine would cost.
Optional Add-Ons
While this machine is being sold as manual, auto-bead function hardware is partially included. Want to upgrade later? The platform is already in place to make that possible.
What’s Included
- Fully rebuilt Leonard 3CPV frame
- All-new bearings, belts, wiring, and pneumatic rebuild
- Variable speed drive included
- Manual tooling ready for flaring, squaring, and beading
- Optional tooling upgrades available on request
