• Multi-Layer Multi-Pass Welding with Automatic Calculation

Planning a weld that requires multiple layers and passes can involve repetitive calculations and manual preparation. Operators need to determine how successive weld beads will fill the joint or build up the overlay.

This automatic TIG welding machine calculates the layer and pass arrangement based on the welding task settings, helping reduce manual calculation during job preparation. The function supports manufacturers and fabrication shops handling circumferential joints or weld overlay tasks that require several weld beads across successive layers.

The calculated arrangement provides a basis for setup and should be checked against the workpiece geometry, required weld dimensions and applicable welding procedure.

 

• Automatic Weld Seam Tracking with Arc Sensing

Keeping the welding path aligned with the joint is a key challenge in automated circumferential welding. Deviations in the actual seam position can make a preset path alone insufficient for the task.

The system uses arc sensing for automatic weld seam tracking during welding, helping the welding path follow the actual seam. This addresses the need for seam following as welding progresses around the workpiece.

Tracking performance and suitability should be evaluated against the actual joint geometry, fit-up condition and welding parameters.

 

• Workpiece Tilting and Turning

A fixed workpiece orientation can restrict torch access and make it difficult to position the welding area appropriately, particularly when working with components that require welding from different orientations.

The workpiece tilting and turning function allows the component to be reoriented as part of the welding setup. It helps address access and positioning requirements without relying solely on changes to the torch position.

For manufacturers handling workpieces with different geometries, this function provides greater flexibility in preparing the component for welding. The positioning arrangement must match the workpiece dimensions, weight, center of gravity and fixture requirements.

 

• TIG Weld Overlay and Circumferential Welding

Weld Overlay

Surface build-up tasks may require multiple adjacent weld beads and successive layers to cover the specified area and achieve the required deposit thickness. Preparing the layer and pass arrangement manually can add complexity to the welding setup.

The TIG weld overlay machine combines multi-layer multi-pass capability with automatic layer and pass calculation to support this preparation. It helps production and repair shops plan weld deposition for applications requiring material to be added to a component surface.

Application suitability depends on the base material, filler metal, overlay geometry and required deposit thickness. Any specified surface properties must be established through appropriate material selection and welding procedure verification.

Circumferential Welding

Manufacturers welding circular joints need to address seam alignment, welding access and, where required, joint filling across multiple layers and passes.

This circumferential welding machine brings together arc sensing seam tracking, multi-layer multi-pass welding and workpiece tilting and turning to address these requirements. Automatic layer and pass calculation assists with weld planning, seam tracking supports following the joint during welding, and workpiece repositioning helps prepare the welding area for access.

The equipment should be evaluated against the workpiece diameter, wall thickness, groove geometry, weight and welding procedure to determine the appropriate configuration.
