From this section we begin general introduction on Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine as a group, its summary on characteristic and classification.
The three most salient feature with Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine are as below:
1) Engineering to Order: As introduced in its product category, the most obvious specialty of Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine is its custom made and uniqueness. Every machine, equipment and fixture origins out of specific demand under particular application, and no 100% replica from existing product can cater for next customer demand;
2)Individualization: The second specialty of these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine is their extensive variability. This is reason why, the products introduced in this product family do not cover all of its kinds, just list of examples;
3) Niche Product: The third specialty with these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine is its low volume for specific product, but in wide application and large volume macroscopically as a whole.
There are several kinds of division on Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine from different perspective:
In view of time axis, these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine can be divided into:
a) Prepare for welding. For example, Rolling Shear Beveling Machine and heavy duty Plate Moving style Edge Milling Machine for making welding groove, and Rolling Boring Machine for machining deep hole;
b) For implementing on welding operation. For example, Welding Fixture, Back Welding Machine, Longitudinal Welding Machine;
a) In view of workpiece, these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine can be classified into for plate, cylinder body, small tube, large pipe, flange, pipe flange, structure members, etc. For example: Gantry Welding Machine, Roller Strap Cladding Machine, etc.;
b) Especially for pipes/ tubes, there are many kinds of Pipe Welding Machine: Pipe Tack Welding Machine, Pipe Back Welding Machine, Pipe Longitudinal Welding Machine, Pipe Circumferential Welding Machine, Pipe Internal Welding Machine, etc.;
3) Welding Seam to be Welded in Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine:
In view of welding seam, it can be grouped as Longitudinal Welding Machine, and Circumferential Welding Machine, etc.;
4) Welding Technique Adopted in Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine:
In view of welding technique adopted, these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine can be divided as for SAW (Submerged arc welding), GMAW (Gas shielded CO2 welding), TIG, MIG, Strap Cladding, etc..
1) Position and Significance: These Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine can meet specific demand in particular application, satisfy requirement on diversified welding technology, perform flexible welding manner, bring along the best degree of ergonomics status, and improve welding quality together with efficiency. It is widely used in wide range of industries, such as Shipbuilding/ Construction Machinery/ Chemical Vessels/ Steel Structure/ Civil Engineering/ Pressure Vessel, etc.
2) Welding Supporting Units: To deliver optimum welding outcome, meeting customer expectation, the successful running of these Welding Fixture and Special Welding Machine need the assistance from series of welding supporting units, for example: Welding torch position control, welding wire feeder, welding speed management, welding swing, video monitor, etc.
