Wilkinson Star and General Welding Supplies will exhibit diesel- and petrol-driven Network Rail approved welding/generating machines at Railtex 07.

Wilkinson Star and General Welding Supplies will exhibit diesel- and petrol-driven Network Rail approved welding/generating machines on Stand H31 at Railtex 07 at the ExCel Exhibition Centre, London from 20th to 22nd February 2007 The MagicWeld-RW (PADS No 094/007037) is a new Honda four-stroke GX200 petrol-driven, portable, air cooled, MMA welder generator rated 150A at 60% duty cycle with a 110V CTE 1.5kW DC auxiliary DC power output for use with fixed speed power tools and other ancillary equipment including lighting

The TS200-RW (PADS No 094/007031) is a portable, air-cooled, petrol-driven welder generator rated 190A at 60% duty cycle with a 4kVA 110V CTE AC auxiliary output for running power tools.

The TS300-RW (PADS No 094/007036) is a portable diesel-driven welder generator rated 300A at 60% duty cycle with a 110V CTE auxiliary output providing 10kVA AC power for tools and ancillary equipment, available while welding.

All three machines have been designed especially for a multitude of on-site work, including rail maintenance.

They are silenced to meet EEC regulations and have DC output producing smooth high quality welding characteristics using most welding electrodes including cellulosic and have stepless welding current arc controls.

Options (all Network Rail certified) for the three machines include 10m x 50mm2 heavy duty welding cables, an inline digital welding amp and volt meter, a PAR600-RW parallel welding control box to connect two MOSA welder/generators together and a semi-automatic 300A MIG/MAG wire feed unit.

Alistair Baker, Group Product Manager, Wilkinson Star said: "We are pleased to have Network Rail approval on all three machines, which we obtained in July 2006 in conjunction with our distributor General Welding Supplies in Widnes who assisted with the equipment trials through their customer Carillion Rail, so this is the first opportunity that we have had to exhibit them at a rail industry exhibition".
