Things You Didn’t Know About Longitudinal Seam Welding Machine

In this generation of technologies and high quality machines, the longitudinal seam welders have made its place in the industry so well. Businessmen are proud of the machine’s efficiency and how much it is helping the company grow. Designed for cylinders, longitudinal seam welding machine avails quality internal welding. The invention of welder has provided an apparatus for continuously welding the longitudinal seam of tubular sections formed from sheet metal.

The longitudinal welding machine is used in various industries for various applications and hus, popular in the market. These are used for larger diameter cylinders or storage tank. It can make a uniform weld at speeds which were tough earlier. The open Longitudinal Seam Welders are found in three types which is PAW, TIG or MIG.

PAW: It is designed for galvanized steel sheet with thickness of 1.5-4mm. This provides full-penetration welding one time, and also zinc on GI will be blown away and not stick to Tungsten rod with PAW. The thickness of the welding sheet ranges from 0.5-8mm. It is used for linear butt-welding of metal sheet such as galvanized sheet, stainless steel, carbon steel. Thus, it features less deformation and higher precision.

MIG: This type of longitudinal seam welding machine is available below 4mm without opening groove. It could be penetrated fully by one time. These are used in Liquefied petroleum Gas (LPG) cylinder, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) cylinder, porcelain enamel tank-inner tank and large scale cryogenic storage tank for various applications. It has high welding speed of 1000mm per minute and offers one sided welding with double-side forming.

TIG: Great to work with, it is available below 4mm without groove. It can penetrate fully one time welding for plate. Designed for straight line, linear welding applications, it is the ideal seam quality which is easier to polish than that of MIG welding. This can be controlled easily using height, width and height and especially for pulse TIG welding.

Longitudinal seam welding machine are used for metal cylinders and plate weld seam applications. It can upgrade or change the weld controls. The welding process or equipment on the welding seamers has options such as welding controls, arc length controls. It can even be modified for any special welding application and there are other types of seams as well such as gantry, internal, combination, horn and plate sheet seam welder.

Longitudinal seam welder provides a wide assortment of materials including stainless steel, carbon steel and galvanized steel. With a large capacity of storage tank or cylinder with a diameter over 1500mm, this welding machine provides an improved mandrel for moving the tubular sections. With the features like retractable edge alignment device, water cooling mandrel and pneumatic torch lift, it also helps in creating a pressure work engaging means for maintaining the seam in proper alignment. Mostly used in the industries for the automatic and continuous seam welding of tubular sections, these are suitable for welding purposes.
