Our automated welding systems are
designed to attach directly to several
of Climax’ boring machine mounting
fixtures, allowing a single setup for
both welding and machining
operations. These automated welders
offer high-quality, affordable welding
performance for bore, flange and
valve repair.
Improved Safety & Productivity
• Remote pendant controls
minimize welder's exposure to
harmful fumes, heat, and flash.
• Eliminates tedious, repetitive
motion leading to welder fatigue
and injury.
• Welds in areas that are difficult or
impossible to reach.
• Welder can be freed up to work
on other jobs while automated
welding is taking place,
significantly improving productivity.
• Welds in bores that are too small
to weld by hand, and are too large
to weld with good consistency in a
timely manner.
• Cut job time in half by welding
one set of bores while you're
machining the other.
Versatile, Efficient, Repeatable
• Weld in horizontal or vertical axis,
more consistently than hand
welding.
• Operates at a lower voltage with
no starts & stops, maintaining a
very consistent arc length.
• Arc time is increased 100% vs.
hand welding methods.
• Uses far less consumables vs.
hand welding.
• Smooth, consistent welds reduce
machining time by up to 50% -
which also reduces wear & tear
on your tooling, boring equipment,
and consumables.
• Automatic out-of-round correction
capability (pie mode and carriage
return) means there's no pre-
boring needed to manually fill a
void or to oversize the bore to
make it round).
• Interfaces with Climax BB3000,
BB4500 and BB5000 Boring
Machines (one set-up operation).
Climax AutoBoreWelding Systems provide you with higher quality welds,
as well as substancial time & cost savings over hand welding methods.
