Welding Positioners



Welding Positioner are mainly used to manipulate and position and the welding jobs for 1G position for easy down hand welding, independent of the operator’s skill. Once the job is loaded it can be manipulated conveniently to complete all the welding operations in a down hand position. Welding Positioners reduces handling time and frequent use of cranes. The job can be tilted from 0° to 135° depending on the requirement of the specific location of welding.

Welding Positioner can be conveniently used for complete circumferential welding, strip cladding, down hand position welding, to set the job conveniently for easy accessibility to intricate assemblies, etc. Along with Column & Boom, a positioner can carry out any welding tasks which are impossible otherwise.

Advantages of Welding Positioners

• Enables maximum flexibility in job processing
• Easy positioning of add-shaped jobs for download welding.
• With minimal handling, maximum accessibility of the joint is guaranteed.
• Increased production with reduced labor.
• Prevents frequent crane use, which reduces downtime.
• Adaptable for automatic or manual welding.
• Convenient for assembling complex sub-assemblies.
• One-handed job processing and welding reduce labor costs.
• Improved welding quality (even with an unskilled operator) reduces welding errors and rejects.
• Ideal in connection with column and Boom

Positioner Standard Capacity Range

Special Features of Welding Positioner Design

  • Acceleration and Deceleration time set facility provided for smooth gradual speed pick-up.
  • Constant torque throughout the speed range.
  • Heavy-duty worm reduction gearboxes prevent the job drifting from a set of position.
  • Limit switches to determine the critical positions of the cradle, face plate and the cylinders.
  • For remote access, RRC is provided along with pendent and control panel access.
  • Direction of face plate rotation can be altered, whose controls are provided on control panel.
