Welding Positioners


About Welding Positioners

“Welding Positioners” are mechanical piece of equipment that holds and rotates a tubular or spherical industrial workpiece, such as flanges and pipelines, through 360 degrees, to allow a welder to work at a suitable angle and on a steady surface. The main purpose of a welding positioner is to ensure that the workpiece is ALWAYS in the most suited welding position.

Need for Welding Positioners and its Usage in Industries

“Welding Positioners” allows a welder to stand in one position and unceasingly work on a level surface. This prevents worker fatigue and increases productivity, since the welder is not having the need to constantly move around the workpiece to complete the weld. This method of work piece presentation also tends to ensure reliably high-quality welds, since no overhead or vertical runs are involved.

“Welding Positioners” are being implemented in many industries, to reduce the trail required to process and access parts, while minimizing the number of times a part must be manually moved.

A “welding positioner” solves many hitches when it comes to weld quality, as it rotates the workpiece at a controlled rate and speed, to maintain a continuous, penetrative weld.

PRIMO’s Welding Positioners can be expediently used for circumferential welding, strip cladding, for down hand position welding, to set the job suitably for easy accessibility to complex assembly and many more.

Industrial Application Usage of Welding Positioners

Our Welding positioners are suited to a variety of industrial applications including:

Welding Positioners to rotate & tilt large assembling parts in various positions, in a Heavy Vehicle / Automobile Manufacturing & Assembling Industry.

Welding Positioners are used in Pipe Fittings such as Flanges & Valves to provide a fine finish welded joint.

Positioners in Steel fabrication Industries.

Welding Positioners in Tank Fabrication Industry.

Welding Positioners in Passenger Train Manufacturing / Fabrication Industry.

 

Modules of Welding Positioner & Features

Primo welding positioners are all steel geared equipment designed for safety in operation. Does not use chains or belts in drive transmission for this purpose.

It comes with an electronic variable speed drive unit for speed control.

It is equipped with a digital meter that displays the speed of rotation.

Reduces the dependence on crane to manipulate the job.

Helps in improving the weld quality and aesthetics, by allowing ‘Down hand’ welding position.

Can be used for manual or semi-automatic or automatic welding equipment.
