Horizontal Beam Tack Welding Machine
The Horizontal Beam Tack Welding Machine from VATS Systematic Automation is designed for accurate assembly, alignment and tack welding of structural steel beams. It helps position the web and flange plates accurately before the final welding process, making it an important solution for H-beam and structural steel fabrication.
The machine is suitable for assembling and tack welding H-beams, T-beams and other compatible structural beam configurations. Its controlled clamping and positioning arrangement helps maintain beam geometry and supports consistent fabrication of structural components for construction, infrastructure, PEB and heavy fabrication applications.
Features of Horizontal Beam Tack Welding Machine
Accurate Beam Assembly
Designed to accurately position web and flange plates to form the required H-beam configuration before final welding.
Hydraulic Clamping
Hydraulic or application-specific clamping arrangements can help hold the beam components securely during alignment and tack welding.
Controlled Tack Welding
The system supports controlled tack welding to maintain the assembled beam geometry before subsequent welding operations.
Web & Flange Alignment
The machine helps maintain the relative position of web and flange plates for accurate H-beam assembly.
Adjustable Welding Parameters
Machine configurations can provide adjustable travel and welding parameters according to beam size, material and fabrication requirements.
Heavy Fabrication Applications
Suitable for structural steel, PEB, construction, infrastructure and heavy engineering fabrication.
How Horizontal Beam Tack Welding Works
Plate Loading
Prepared flange and web plates are positioned on the machine for the beam assembly process.
Beam Alignment
The web and flange plates are positioned and aligned according to the required beam dimensions.
Clamping
The components are held in position using the machine's clamping and positioning arrangement.
Tack Welding
Tack welds are applied to temporarily secure the web and flange assembly in the required configuration.
Beam Transfer
The assembled and tack-welded beam can then proceed to the next stage of the fabrication line.
Final Welding
The tack-welded beam can be transferred for subsequent final welding operations according to the production process.
