ADF WELDING HELMETS WITH SHADE 9-13 PROTECTION
These innovative helmet designs from Honeywell Safety Products combines the safety and performance of auto-darkening filters with superior comfort for increased productivity.
FUME EXTRACTION SYSTEM EXTENDS FUME CAPTURE AREA OVER 3X CONVENTIONAL TECHNOLOGIES
The new FILTAIR® Capture 5 fume extraction system captures fume up to 5 ft away, minimizing the need for welding operators to interact with the extraction arm and increasing arc-on time for greater productivity.
Field of Dreams
Take a look at how Wisconsin fabricator High Tech Welding uses a portable all-in-one multiprocess power source to gain versatility and increase their welding productivity by 25 to 30 percent on field repair and fabrication jobs.
THE ANSI / AWS WAY TO A SAFE WELDING WORKPLACE
U.S. welding engineers that use industrial arc welding robots can choose from a number of available voluntary industry standards to provide guidance on the subject of robot system safeguard selection. However, differences exist between a highly subjective matrix style of risk assessment and a more focused and structured risk assessment such as the AWS Protocol Method. Here are some reasons why the selection of proper safeguards should be a straightforward process that provides consistent results.
New Robotic Welding Cell Dramatically Increases Robotic Welding Envelope
In order to meet the goal of a sizable increase in their robotic welding envelop, D&S Manufacturing has integrated a new cell system from Wolf Robotics featuring two ABB IRB 2600 six-axis robots, two Lincoln Welding power supplies and an IRBP K servo positioner, all controlled by a single ABB IRC5 MultiMove control.
Improving Welder Safety and Comfort with New Head Protection Technologies
Recent technology advancements in welding helmets not only help to protect welders from lost-time or work-related injury, but they increase productivity by increasing comfort levels. Regardless of the type of head protection a welder chooses, it is critical to make sure that the helmet, PAPR or other such personal protective equipment (PPE) is properly suited for the welding application at hand and also provides the appropriate level of protection.
Synchronized Tandem MIG® Process Revealed
This examination of Tandem MIG shows how it extends the welding productivity range beyond that possible with conventional single-wire processes.
ESAB Announces Title Sponsorship of LetzRoll Offroad Racing for 2014 Season
With automatic qualification into the 2014 King of the Hammers, the LetzRoll Offroad Racing team is focused on defending their Dirt Riot National Championships
Beyond the Robot: Improving Robotic Welding with the Right Filler Metal and Packaging
To achieve the full benefits of robotic welding, it’s important to focus on the entire system — not just the robot and power source. While a small part of a much bigger picture, the selected filler metal and its packaging can both play a critical role in maximizing the performance of a robotic welding system. Here’s how.
Using Laser Beam Welding with Electron Beam Welding for Complex Geometry and Superior Metallurgy
Using both laser and electron beam technologies in a single facility can streamline the fusing of complex geometries that are required on parts such as sensors, medical devices, and products that require a sealed vacuum within the finished part.
