Modified OSK21-C
Modified OSK21-C to accept a tight access aerospace component, tube size is 0.250” (6.35mm), the assembly comprises ‘S’ shape tube with a fitting welded at each end. Photo shows a batch of welded assemblies.
IBW weld head
IBW weld head for a ‘back face’ tube to tube sheet joint on an HP Heater for power generation. Inset photos show a completed test sample weld (as welded) and IBW weld head positioned at the front face for welding.
Auto Loading Mechanism
Auto loading mechanism for an OSK65-W weld head, mechanism has PLC controlled pneumatic actuation for loading and clamping of components. An Orbitec Tigtronic controller was fully integrated with the loading mechanism to provide a single operator interface. All mechanical, pneumatic, electronic and PLC software design was completed ‘in-house’. Photo shows some completed welds.
