New Lincoln 6000 Series Welding Arm Provides Safe Working Environment And Higher Productivity



Cleveland, OH -- Fabrication shops looking to create a safe, uncluttered work environment where floor space is used efficiently will benefit from The Lincoln Electric Company's new 6000 Series Welding Arm. The arm glides effortlessly into position when needed, or it can be swung against a wall or beam for safe, out of the way storage. The 6000 Series Welding Arm will help shops conserve space, maximize work area and improve production.

With an 18-inch by 18-inch footprint, the unit ties up very little floor space so that every square foot can be used for earning profits, not storing equipment. The 13.5 foot welding arm can be positioned in a 180 degree rotation (360 degrees after removing stop). That means the arm brings the welding wire feeder controls to the operator -- no more leaving the work station to adjust welding parameters - saving time and increasing productivity.

The 6000 Series arm is designed to accommodate a number of Lincoln wire feeders, power sources and fume extraction systems. The life of these items can be extended as they are elevated from the ground to reduce wear and tear. The system can be mounted on the floor or even on a steel mounting base for added portability.

Additional features of the 6000 Series Welding Arm include:
o Tubular steel construction provides neat, sturdy protection for weld and control cables, fume extraction hoses and air or electrical cables.
o Positioning above or below the horizontal with simple Clevis Pin adjustment.
o Self-equalizing mechanism with counterbalance springs to maintain the height of the arm where the operator positions it.
o Three-year warranty on parts and labor.

Lincoln Electric is the world leader in the design, development and manufacture of arc welding products, robotic arc-welding systems, plasma and oxyfuel cutting equipment.
