The new 2016 Lantek Factory software from Lantek Systems uses sophisticated automatic geometry recognition for multiple parts and dynamic lead in/out positioning that reduces programming times, while the new Bevel 3D Designer allows interactive irregular bevel design in 2.5D.
Tube & Pipe Fabrication: Welding
Here are some of the advances in tube and pipe welding equipment and accessories that are now available to help shops make money while meeting demands for more complex geometries, tougher materials, faster speed and higher quality.
Low Hydrogen Weld Deposit, Minimal Cracking Risks When Welding Pipe
FabCO 750M gas-shielded flux-cored wire from Hobart provides low diffusible hydrogen weld deposits on high-strength applications and minimizes the risk of underbead cracking.
Submerged Arc Welding for Pipe Fabrication
The self-contained SubArc Portable Welding System from Miller Electric is a ready-to-weld system that contains the power source, column and boom on a mobile platform.
Power Tool and Battery System Increases Power, Extends Runtime on the Jobsite
With the FLEXVOLT Power Tool and Battery System from DeWALT, heavy-duty corded power tool applications can be performed with cordless tools, without sacrificing performance.
Pure DC Generator Power Source for Pipeline Applications
The engine-driven SAE-300 MP Pure DC Generator Welder from Lincoln Electric stands up to rough conditions on the job site and delivers consistent power and maximum control, no matter how hot or cold, how long the pipeline or how tough the job.
Weld Monitoring and Inspection Systems for Tube and Pipe Fabrication
The Tube and Pipe Weld Monitoring System from Xiris Automation remotely monitors live TIG, plasma or laser welding processes by simultaneously seeing all features of the torch tip and/or weld arc, its surrounding environment and its position relative to the tube/pipe weld seam.
Medical Inspection
Contract manufacturers that are making parts for medical applications must measure and compare parts faster, with higher precision, and generate and integrate all types of inspection and measurement records for the production history of a given part. Here are some of the newest systems available to help them do that.
