Welding

Innovations for welding process EWM’s top priorities are to provide the best solutions to welding tasks, reduce costs and increase its customers’ competitiveness on a lasting basis. Users were able to experience all the innovations for themselves at the recent live demonstrations at Blechexpo/ Schweisstec. EWM’s Multimatrix technology ensures safe, convenient and time taken to perform welding work and increases productivity. With an EWM welding machine users are equipped to tackle any welding challenge. The “all-in” concept means that the price of EWM welding machines always includes all machine-specific welding procedures for steel, CrNi and aluminium, so the full range of tasks is covered.

input, reliable gap bridging and higher welding speed. The new Picomig Synergic 180 A-300 A machine series has been designed for flexible use in both production and assembly. In addition to MIG/MAG stan- dard welding, the Picomig is also suit- able for TIG lift arc, MMA and flux cored wire welding and for GMAW brazing. The Picomig 305 D3 Synergic and Synergic puls are equipped with all relevant innovative welding processes, enabling users to take full advantage of the entire range of applications. A particularly beneficial feature is the connection capability for remote controls and MT up/down function torches. This allows the operating point and the voltage correction to be adjusted directly at the workstation.

The free EN 1090 WPQR package not only includes diverse welding procedure specifications relevant for practical use, but also replaces the welding procedure tests required for the EN 1090 certification. ForceArc puls is a new, innovative MIG/MAG welding process with very straightforward handling, which makes it easy to introduce pulse welding into your workflow. ForceArc puls offers numerous benefits, particularly in the higher performance range, including minimal finishing work thanks to a virtually spatter-free arc, reduced heat

environmentally friendly welding. All components are perfectly attuned to one another – always with the single objective of increasing customer benefits. EWM states that this is why it can offer the perfect solution for every user. Updates keep users up to date in terms of welding processes, software and operation at all times. Users report cost savings of up to 60 per cent in practice with Multimatrix technology. This is achieved by reducing consumption of energy and materials, which also significantly decreases the

New professional welding tables

STRONG Hand Tools, a manufacturer of welding clamps and BuildPro welding tables and the North American

distributor of German- made Siegmund high precision welding tables, has introduced the new Professional Extreme 750 Siegmund welding tables, claimed to be the hardest, most durable and flat welding tables available. Siegmund Extreme table

Constructed from premium through-hardened steel, the Professional Extreme 750 welding tables are finished with a newly optimised plasma nitride treatment, which results in a deep, hard case for a table that will last a lifetime. This hardening process protects against stroke impact, and provides a more wear- and corrosion-resistant surface. The Professional Extreme 750 tables have a surface hardness of 750 HV (~60 HRC), and are available in two versions, System 28 and System 16, with 28mm and 16mm boreholes, respectively.
