In addition to the current method of using TIG cold welding and hot wire, automatic orbital tube welding machine for water treatment can realize all-round new applications in various industries such as semiconductor, aerospace, medical, water treatment, food and beverage. Orbital welding can provide reliable welding of repeatable quality using a wide range of technologies and different types of technology. This can be achieved even with unusual materials, thick walls, small pipe diameters and even in difficult working environments. The cost of orbital welding machine is 5-10 times the initial capital cost required for conventional welding equipment, but the productivity is also significantly higher than traditional TIG (2-3 times).
Orbital welding has a place in the production of clean room components in the semiconductor industry due to its ability to achieve high purity results. Its applications have now expanded to build pipelines and equipment for a variety of industries including food processing, watertreatment, chemical engineering, automotive engineering, biotechnology, shipbuilding and aerospace. Automatic track TIG welding is also used to build power stations (thermal power plants). The building materials used must be able to withstand the large mechanical loads generated by the high pressures and temperatures generated by the medium carried in the tubes. Gaps, voids and inclusions in the weld must be avoided at all costs, as this creates weak points that can lead to subsequent crack formation. This in turn can have serious consequences in terms of component failure. This means that the tube is usually made of a nickel-based material with a wall thickness of 200 mm. The manufacturer has developed a track narrow gap welding system that is dedicated to hot wire feed for this purpose, using a running mechanism that moves on a guide ring that is fixed around the tube.
