Welding System is used to enhance the productivity several times for welding of oil storage tanks, liners for reactor building of nuclear power stations. The Submerged Arc welding (SAW) or Gas Metal Arc welding (GMAW) processes are used by the operator. Flux, flux recovery system, wire spool etc. are kept in the moving cage. The operator sits comfortably in the cage and supervises the weld quality in situ. Tank girth welder is designed mainly for cylinder, storage tank, pressure vessel and solar water heater, etc.

Welding power source is kept on the ground and supplied through welding cable to the welding head. The cage moves on the top edge of the circular plate with the help of special designed roller. Tank Girth is ideal for rules of girth seam, straight seam and various custom-shaped seam-welding by TIG, MIG/MAG, Laser, Plasma and other welding process.

Advantages Of Tank Girth Welder:

  • Unlike current girth welders on the market, this welder comes in standard system. This self-propelled submerged arc welding system can reduce field storage tank welding time up to 40%.
  • The tank girth welder machine is driven by motors, controlled by the PLC, assisted controlled by electrical relay, hydraulic press structure, so it can realize automatic welding.
  • Welding current and welding speed can be set on the operation panel as it has high automation level.
  • With a heating power that can be continuously adjusted from 68 to 1292 °F, it can meet the requirements of various materials.
  • It is available as a single sided or dual sided mobile welding station completely equipped with welding heads, all controls, flux support belts and flux recovery units.
  • This tank girth welder straddles the tank shell plates, riding on serrated steel drive wheels that can be adjusted for tank diameter.
  • The operator platform of the machine is sturdy and the all-weather curtains for operator safety and comfort.
  • The double platform is fully equipped with its own direction and speed controls. An access ladder allows movement to the primary flux separator tank and to the side of the dual unit.

The welding defects are greatly reduced saving tank erection costs by this device. Fitted with high-performance nozzles, the fan fitted with the machine works effectively to support the equipments’ gear motors. It is helpful with great welding speeds in a conventional working environment. These are applicable for bottom-up or jack-up constructed single or double wall storage tanks inside and outside welding.

Tank girth welder is ideal for tank fabrication applications as it is applicable for top down or bottom up constructed single or double wall storage tanks for inside and outside welding. It is designed ergonomically for efficiency, convenience and accessibility. Includes solid state control and welding head fitted with nozzles, wire feed rolls, strengtheners and 50 lb. wire reels for either single or twin-arc wire, it is the perfect way to invest.
