FCH 3-21 / 3-38 / 6-76 / 9-114 Welding Heads
Mechanised Orbital Welding
WELDING PROCESS: TIG
Closed welding heads for the mechanised TIG orbital welding of thin-walled pipe joints
(external diameter 3 - 114 mm, wall thickness up to 3.5 mm) made of stainless steel,
titanium, nickel-based alloys, aluminium and other materials without the use of filler wire.
CHARACTERISTICS
SPOT-ON VERSATILITY
• FCH welding head with 8 m hosepack
• High duty cycle due to effective water cooling
• Integrated servo motor
• Automatic movement to the opening position
• Freely definable start position
• Automatic switch-off of the motor current in the event of overloading
• Compact design – optimum accessibility in confined areas
• Best possible gas shield and low level of temper colouration
• Clamping system for secure fixation and centring on the component
• Quick changeover system for clamping shells
• Highly user-friendly thanks to control buttons integrated in the handle
• Transport case with trolley function
