The tacking fixture can be used to assemble the beam before it is sent to the Main welder. The web is brought in from the seam welded and flange storage racks. They are then moved to the tacking fixture where they are placed before tacking the beam's leading edge. A manual operator can load the flanges on conveyors, or an automated process using PHI’s flange-loading Gantry.
The flux recovery system allows you to recover and dispense welding flux. Seam Welder Hydraulic Power Units (also known as Electric Controls) drive the conveyors at entry and exit.
Do you need quality and reliable machines to aid the process of your structural fabrications? We offer structural fabrication machines which will guarantee that only the best beam and plate fabrication outcomes are achieved. These machines include plate processors, beam drill lines, angle masters, thermal cutting machines, layout markers and beam cambering and straightening.
The Beam Layout Welding machine is fully customizable and is designed to join heavy-duty structural steel box sections. It is well-suited for civil construction and oil and gas industries. The Beam Layout Welding is equipped with component clamping, rotation via the tailstock and headstock. Beam Layout Welding can be controlled using the linear axis Z, Y, and Z as well as laser seam tracking devices. It also includes a wire feeder system. The integrated control system and motor drives fully automate the machine.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Company, the largest distributor of metal fabrication & robotic welding in the South. Since over 30 years, we have been committed to providing the best technology and top-quality service.
This platform has rail guards for safety and stairs to make it easy to access. The platform is designed to store flux and wire. This allows for easy access for the operator to load flux and reels, as well as change drums and reels. You can increase the productivity, speed, and ability of your Beam Layout Welding operation by adding auxiliary equipment, such as PHI's Flange Turning Device and Beam Turning Device.
The operator moves the beam to its starting position by using the "IN" conveyor and presses the "START” button. The entire sequence of operations will be automated, which includes positioning the welding heads and moving the beam at the right speed, starting and stopping the welding process on stationary and mobile sides, activating copper back-up assemblies, pressure cylinders and activating web holding.
A welded beam consists of three individual sections of steel – a web, a top flange and a bottom flange. These segments are merged together with deep fillet welds to create an incredibly robust building material.
