Since the early 1950’s orbital welding has been a critical processes for aerospace, pharmaceutical, dairy welding. While the core concept is the remains the same, there have been some incredible innovations over the years. Some orbital welding machines can now weld up to 100 steps in a program, build sophisticated programs to create near perfect welds, and record every detail for extensive QA/QC analysis. The newest orbital welding machine in our feel is a powerful 200-amp machines from AXXAIR. The AXXAIR SAXX-200 Orbital Welding Machine power supply and computer automate the weld process with operator inputted parameters, also called schedules, to create dependable, high-quality welds in a compact and user-friendly package.
The AXXAIR SAXX-200 Orbital Welding Machine works by sending weld programs to the weld head to generate an arc and rotate the tungsten electrode around the circumference of the pipe or tubing, which helps to ensure that the weld is evenly distributed and free of defects. The welding head is controlled by an onboard display panel, remote pendant, or mobile app, which allows the operator to adjust the welding schedule parameters, such as the welding speed, the welding current, and the arc voltage.
The SAXX-200 is packed with features to help operators produce high-quality welds faster and with higher accuracy than traditional hand welds.
Key Features:
Easy to use and maintain: The machine is designed to be easy to use and maintain, which helps to reduce downtime and increase efficiency.
Automatic gas flow: The machine is equipped with an automatic gas flow control system, which ensures that the appropriate amount of shielding gas is used during the welding process, which helps to prevent oxidation and other forms of contamination.
Automatic welding current and voltage adjustment: The machine is equipped with a control system that automatically adjusts the welding current and voltage to ensure that the weld is of the highest quality and free of defects.
Welding parameters programming: The machine allows the operator to program the welding parameters, such as the welding speed, the welding current, and the arc voltage, which can help to ensure that the welds are consistent and meet the required specifications.
Welding process monitoring: The machine is equipped with a control system that allows the operator to monitor the welding process, which can help to ensure that the weld is of the highest quality and free of defects.
Extensive Welding Range: Suitable for welding of pipes or tubes with diameters ranging from 6mm to 200mm which makes it versatile in different kind of applications. The digital encoding in the SATFX and SATO line of weld heads make it easy to switch between weld heads with little to no calibration.
Compatible with TIG and plasma welding: The machine is compatible with TIG and plasma welding, which allows for greater flexibility in the types of materials that can be welded.
The AXXAIR SAXX-200 Orbital Welding Machine is an innovative and advanced orbital welding system that is perfect for welding stainless steel and other high alloy pipes and tubes. The easy to use touch screen, program development software, automated wire feeder, gas flow, and welding current/voltage adjustment make it ideal for jobs that require perfect and repeatable welds.
