Workshop welding machine

Alfa 400 Easy Life

MENA’s premier platform for the tube and pipe industry

THE Alfa 400 Easy Life workshop welding machine is designed to fabricate fittings by joining pipe segments with the help of special jaws. It can also weld special and moulded fittings such as elbows, tees and flange necks, with the use of different jaws. The machine can handle elbows from 90 to 400mm (4" to 16" IPS), and tees, crosses and wyes from 90 to 315mm (4" to 12" IPS). It is composed of a machine body with two carriages, one of which is driven by a hydraulic system; and a control panel that features the Easy Life system, which allows a complete welding cycle to be carried out in a simple, intuitive and repeatable way, reducing operator involvement to a minimum. The built-in memory allows the machine to store 4,000 welding cycles (including the set diameters and SDR). The welding data can be transferred to a PC through a serial port (a USB adaptor connector is available) and data management software, and a printer can be connected to the serial port to obtain a welding report at the end of each welding cycle. The heating plate features a new, automatically operated horizontal sliding system that enables fast side-sliding of the plate during the exchange period. The milling cutter, for levelling the ends of pipes and/or fittings, slides on recirculating ball slideways, with an electronic device for a soft start. The machine, which is available in 230V and 400V versions, also features an upper cylinder, to be positioned on the jaws, for welding extra-thick pipes or for when it is necessary to use high pressures.
