MP45 Automated Plate Butt Joining Machine for Metal Plate Join

MP45 Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine is for fulfiling flat joint of wide size metal plates (Width up to 4.5m), utilizing high technique welding technology of fully penetration: Single side welding double side forming.

1. Technical Specialties of MP45 Plate Flat Joint Welding Machine:

1)  Mechanical System in the Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine:

a) Mechanical main body of the MP45 Plate Butt Welding Machine please check the first photo. It is a 3m height and 1.5m depth (Lateral width) gantry and platform. Function units of the machine: SAW power supply and welding flux recycling unit are put on the platform, so that flux recycling hose have sufficient suction force to inhale the not used welding flux back. There is a lateral staircase for accessing the platform;

b) Compared with MP20, MP45 Plate Butt Joint Machine has higher requirement on strength and rigidity of the gantry body due to its larger size;

2) Supplementary System in Plate Butt Joining Welding Machine:

a)  Flame Oxygen Acetylene Triple Cutting: The first photo was taken on flame triple cutting system of the machine. It is for making welding groove before fully penetration butt welding. Without beveling, the max. thickness for butt welding is 15mm. Please check attached video on triple cutting;

b)  Copper Pad Water Cooling: Meanwhile, butt welding in the Plate Butt Joining Welding Machine will generate certain amount of heat either with SAW (Submerged arc welding) and or GMAW CO₂ welding. There is circulating water cooling unit installed for the purpose of releasing heat;

2) Working Environment of Plate Flat Joint Welding Machine:

a)  It is important to pay attention to and maintain proper working environment of the MP-series Plate Butt Welding Machine, for its safe and reliable operation process;

b)  There should be no explosive or corruptive gas, steam, rainwater or chemical deposit which may seriously affect or do harm to normal work of the machine on site.

Climate Request on Operation of the Plate Butt Welding Machine:

        i.  Ambient Temperature：     -10℃～40℃

      ii.   Relative humidity：            Monthly Max. Average humidity 90%

     iii.   Electricity：                       Voltage fluctuation（under rated frequency）≤±10%

     iv.   Frequency fluctuation（under rated voltage） ≤±2%

3) Operation of Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine:

a) The attached 2^nd and 3^rd photos give two options in operating of MP45 Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine: By means of HMI (Human machine interface) compared with conventional operating panel. Both solutions have its pros and cons, and the HMI configuration is 3% higher machine price than operating panel;

b) The HMI in the 2^nd photo is for MP45 Plate Butt Joint Machine, machine model can be identified in the left top corner of the screen. It is touch screen type, and working language is Chinese in the photo. All the frequent languages (English/ Russian/ French…) are available;

c) Both HMI and operating panel are for machine management of the MP series Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine. In addition, there is control console for manipulating SAW power supply during butt welding process, which is installed in the same sliding carriage together with welding torch. Before and during working, operator can make adjustment by means of turning knobs;

4) Grounding Cable in the Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine:

a) As can be seen from the attached 5^th photo, black color grounding cable is connected between every one of the hydraulic pressing blocks of the MP series Plate Butt Welding Machine;

b) Such kind of earthing has advantage of short distance with welding point, and stable welding current. The 6^th photo indicates quality of fully penetration butt welding seam;

5) Others Issues with Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine:

a) For process technology of the equipment, please check product section of “MP25 Plate Flat Joint Welding Machine”;

b) For constructure of the equipment, please check product section of “MP30 Plate Butt Welding Machine”;

c) For cost effectiveness of the equipment, please check product section of “MP35 Plate Butt Joint Welding Machine”.
