1. Circumferential Welding: Welding Roller Bearing of Pipe Welding Roller Support renders powerful start-up and stable torque for turning, leading cylindrical workpieces into CW and CCW 0° ~360° rotation, helping welding torch fulfilling circumferential welding of adjustable working velocity:
1) Pipe Diameters: From Φ250mm to Φ10,000 mm;
2) Pipe Wall Thickness: From several millimeters to over 80 millimeters;
3) Pipe Length: Designated by customer. It can be catered for with quantity of follower Welding Roller Bearing;
4) Service Life: Wuxi JACK Pipe Welding Rotator promises 20+ years reliable and stable high standard performance;
Working with LHZ series Welding Manipulator (Welding Column and Boom), Pipe Welding Rotator can accomplish all the 4 fundamental welding seams for pipe fabrication:
1) External circumferential welding;
2) Internal circumferential welding;
3) External longitudinal welding;
4) Internal longitudinal welding;
1) Drive and Follower Welding Roller Support: In any set of Pipe Welding Rotator, there is one set of motorized drive Welding Roller Bearing, and one to three sets of follower (Idler) Welding Roller Bearing;
2) The quantity of follower Welding Roller Support depends on the max. length of working parts: The longer the pipe, the more quantity the idler Welding Roller Support should be equipped;
1) There are 2 or 4 pieces of turning roller assembled in symmetry in Welding Roller Support, depending on HGZ Self Adjusting, or HGK Leadscrew Adjusting, or HLK Bolt Adjusting Pipe Welding Rotator:
1) Workpiece Loading: At the initiation of Pipe Welding Rotator working, cylindrical workpiece is laid on driving and follower Welding Roller Support, making direct contact with turn rollers of Welding Roller Bearing;
2) Start Up Torque: Driven with A.C. motor of driving Welding Roller Support, its Welding Roller Bearing rotates. In sequence, the friction force generated between turn rollers and workpiece leads the workpiece into revolve accordingly;
3) Follower Welding Roller Support: Follower Welding Roller Bearing rotates in turn, led from the revolving workpiece;
4) Adjustable and Shown Welding Speed: In this way, for Pipe Welding Rotator, circumferential welding speed is the linear velocity of its Welding Roller Bearing, which is VFD (Variable frequency drive) controlled with A.C. inverter, and displayed in real time on operating pendant of Welding Roller Support:
5) Outline on our strong points and value of Welding Roller Bearing is illustrated in slides page of “Summary on Wuxi JACK Pipe Welding Rotator”.
1) Significance: As mechanical equipment with heavy loading tonnage, safety always takes the first priority in Pipe Welding Rotator;
a) People First: Working staff and surrounding working site safety of Pipe Welding Rotator, no personnel harm;
b) Dependable Work: Reliable and durable running of Pipe Welding Rotator: Mechanical body of Welding Roller Support, and enforcement unit Welding Roller Bearing;
c) Protection on Workpieces: Preventing working parts from falling down off the Welding Roller Support, and bumping onto workshop ground;
a) Working parts of Welding Pipe Welding Rotator have round cross section;
b) Welding Roller Bearing does not revolve dependably;
c) Braking system of Welding Roller Bearing fails;
Before making selection on proper structure of Pipe Welding Rotator for your choice, let us review general category of Welding Roller Support first:
Below are 5 critical factors of making choice on appropriate specifications of Welding Roller Support:
1. Easy and Flexible Transport and Fixation: Unlike large equipment such as H Beam Fabrication Machine, which involves 10+ days of foundation prepare and installation, the transportation and set up of Pipe Welding Rotator, its Welding Roller Support and Welding Roller Bearing is relatively simple and time saving;
2. Carefulness Involved: Meanwhile, simplicity does not necessarily mean carelessness. There are definitely several points which should be taken care, for guaranteeing on long term consistent operation of Pipe Welding Rotator;
1) Maintain Sanitary Condition: Check cleanness condition of turning rollers, Welding Roller Support and Welding Roller Bearing after unpack the Pipe Welding Rotator. And clean the entire set of Pipe Welding Rotator if necessary;
2) Equipment Fixation: It is strongly recommend to secure the Welding Roller Support into workshop ground firmly before use, instead of just putting it on the ground without additional secure. This can make sure reliable and steady performance of the entire set of Pipe Welding Rotator;
3) Parallelism Adjustment: Be sure to make adjustment on parallelism of driving and follower Welding Roller Support. If this is not enforced, there will be skidding of workpiece during operation of Pipe Welding Rotator.
1. Teamwork Unison: Many customers purchase Pipe Welding Rotator to make up for their existing Pipe Welding Rotator of different loading capacity and or configuration Welding Roller Support. So, before operating on the newly purchased Welding Roller Support, incorporate the newly acquired Welding Roller Bearing into the current system of Pipe Welding Rotator, so that to make all the Welding Roller Support work in unison;
2. Turning Rollers of Welding Roller Bearing is the critical and core working elements of Pipe Welding Rotator. Whatever its materials, workmanship and loading tonnage, customer should set up strict service plan and enforce the TPM (Total Preventive Maintenance) plan carefully. This can guarantee the best performance and the longest life and best level service of Pipe Welding Rotator;
3. Start Up Process: Every day before official work of the Pipe Welding Rotator, implement idle trial run on Welding Roller Support and Welding Roller Bearing first. This can eliminate hidden risk of damage on equipment and workpiece.
