ALL TIME Longitudinal Elbow Welder is designed for welding the longitudinal seams of heavy wall elbows that are formed in halves.

Traditionally, the two halves of the formed heavy wall elbows are manually welded out of position, resulting in abysmal productivity and a high defective rate. The All Time Longitudinal Elbow Welder is made up of a combination of a heavy-duty gear positioner, a unique fit-up jig, a manipulator, and a custom-modified ID / OD welding arm to overcome the challenge by providing an effective solution to carry out the welding task in position with the high deposition automatic SAW process inside and out of the elbows.

Tack-welded heavy-wall elbows can be loaded in either a horizontal or vertical position on the jig of the positioner table. The SAW is to be carried inside and out of the elbow at the 12 and 6 o'clock positions. Weld travel is controlled by the rotation drive of the gear position to ensure continuous welding with high welding speed accuracy, which is crucial for delivering code-quality welds strictly according to the designated welding procedures.

For high-volume production that cannot afford any downtime, All Time can offer different combinations of system components to maximize arc-on time for automatic welding.
