Weld Heads allow welding of pipes and tubes in place.
Press Release Summary:
Quickclamp Weld Heads are designed for GTAW circumferential butt welding of pipes and tubes. They cover size range from 1 in. OD tube to 6 in. pipe. Units include electronic Arc Gap Control, filler wire feed capability, torch rotation, and torch oscillation with adjustable stroke width, speed, and end point dwell. Heads mount using adjustable clamp. Standard 2 lb wire spool, mounted directly on head, provides positive wire feeding.Original Press Release:
New Line of Heads Welds Pipe "In Place"
Two new models of weld Heads are specifically designed for multipass pipe welds. Configured for fast and simple operation, the Head is simply slipped over the pipe and clamped with a toggle lever.
The Quickclamp weld Head models are designed for GTAW circumferential butt welding of pipes and tubes. The models cover the size range from 1" OD tube to 6" (6.625" OD) pipe.
The new models incorporate all necessary functions required for multipass welding including electronic Arc Gap Control (AGC), filler wire feed capability, torch rotation, and torch oscillation with adjustable stroke width, speed, and end point "dwell".
The Heads mount using an adjustable clamp - no Guide Rings or other separate components are required to use on specific pipe sizes. The wire feeder is mounted on the weld Head. A standard 2 lb. wire spool, mounted directly on the Head, provides precise and positive wire feeding, not possible with floor-mounted feeders. The Quickclamp Heads are used with Magnatech power sources; ranging from simple-to-operate analog models to microprocessor-based systems with program storage capability. These weld Heads bring the productivity and repetitive precision of machine welding to fab shop and field welding of pipes.
