An Orbimatic product story

The P24 is an automatic TIG welding head which is specifically designed for tube to tubesheet welding applications and can be used for high production environments where a fusion weld is suitable.

New from Orbimatic (UK), the P24 is an automatic TIG welding head which is specifically designed for tube to tubesheet welding applications and can be used for high production environments where a fusion weld is suitable.

The weld head clamps directly to the tube to be welded via an expanding mandrel which is operated by a simple mechanical clamping system.

As the clamping mechanism clamps directly inside the tube being welded the head is automatically aligned concentrically.

The welding cycle then runs from the press of a single button which is located conveniently on the weld head body.

And as the weld head weighs only 1.4kg it is simple to use and move between welded joints.

The welding zone is fully enclosed by during the welding cycle which enables it to be used for highly reactive materials such as titanium.

The base of the enclosure acts as a distance keep for the welding arc and eliminates the possibility of the tungsten coming to contact with the material being welded.

The P24 will accommodate tube diameters from 10 to 26mm and has further flexibility as it is possible to adjust the angle of the tungsten electrode.

The P24 can be used with any Orbimatic orbital welding power supply, which gives you the worlds most advanced fusion tube to tube sheet welding system.
