Pipe Welding Positioner

Pipe Welding Positioner - HBJ- S Series

---

Pratical and Versatile - Recognized by customers in Europe and the United States

Olivet has a comprehensive range of positioner for automatic welding. These very versatile handling tools enable welding to be carried out in the optimum positions to benefit the quality of the work. Olivet's HBJ-S Series light duty welding positioners are with capacities ranging for 100 to 300kg. (Meets most European and U.S. customer requirements for lightweight welding positioners.)

 

The pipe welding positioner is a device that rotates around 360°, allowing the welder to stand in one position and continuously perform pipe welding work on a horizontal surface. It adds comfort for welders who must work on shaped parts, such as tubular pipe. pipe welding positioner prevents worker fatigue and increases productivity because workers do not have the movement necessary to complete the welded pipe work. Since no overhead or vertical runs are involved, this method also tends to provide consistently high quality welds.

 

Pipe positioners are typically used in conjunction with a welding positioner, which is a piece of equipment that rotates and tilts the workpiece to the desired position. The combination of the pipe positioner and the welding positioner allows the welder to easily position the pipe for welding, improving the accuracy and quality of the weld. Pipe positioners are commonly used in the manufacturing of pipelines, boilers, and other piping systems where it is important to achieve precise, high-quality welds.

Advantages of Pipe Positioners in Welding

Enhanced Productivity

By automating the rotation and tilting of the workpiece, pipe positioners reduce the need for manual adjustments by welders. This streamlines the welding process, increasing productivity and allowing welders to focus on the quality of their work.

 

Improved Weld Quality

Pipe positioners ensure consistent and accurate welds by maintaining a steady and controlled position throughout the welding process. This eliminates inconsistencies and reduces the likelihood of defects, resulting in superior weld quality.

 

Operator Safety

Welding can be a physically demanding and hazardous task, especially when dealing with heavy or awkwardly positioned pipes. Pipe positioners minimize the risk of injuries to welders by providing a safer and more ergonomic working environment.

 

Versatility in Welding Applications

Pipe positioners are highly versatile and can be used in various welding applications, including:

 

Fillet Welding

Fillet welding requires precision and accuracy, which can be easily achieved using a rotating pipe positioner.

 

Circumferential Welding

Rotating pipe positioners are the perfect choice for circumferential welding, ensuring uniformity and consistency along the pipe's circumference.

 

Longitudinal Welding

For longitudinal welding, tilting positioners allow for easy access to the weld joint and smooth travel of the welding torch.

 

Weld Positioner Options 

OLIVTE offers several unique styles of new weld positioners to meet your project needs. Listed below are some of the unique welding positioner styles we carry.

 

Benchtop Weld Positioners

Benchtop welding positioners offer excellent workpiece positioning within a small frame design that can be easily mounted on a table or desktop. Our new and used benchtop weld positioners offer part rotation and tilt capabilities for precise workpiece positioning.

 

Welding Turntables

Rotating weld turntables offer the key advantage of precise positioning in a flat or horizontal position. They also provide a highly accurate, cost-effective method of rotating pipes, vessels or industrial workpieces around a vertical axis. Floor turntables are used primarily for welding, flame cutting, x-ray and machining applications.

 

Tube/Pipe Welding Positioners

Pipe welding indexers greatly increase productivity when welding pipes, shafts, wheels, elbows and other fittings. Together with a welding turntable, pipe welding positioners are especially useful when rotating or positioning workpieces with large offset loads. Pipe welding positioners are used in a variety of applications, from pipe winding to positioning very large and bulky parts, such as chassis components or structural steel.

 

Rotary Welding Positioners

Rotary welding positioners make it easier and more efficient to weld round objects. A reversible variable speed control box allows you to dial in exactly the right speed, while an optional variable speed pedal adds another level of control. These weld positioners are useful for precision welding applications.

 

Headstock and Tailstock Positioners

Our new head and tailstock weld positioners are designed for long rectangular shapes that must be supported from both ends. Fixed height swivel, centerline and power lift models are available for ergonomic weld part placement. Headstock tailstock positioners also allow for maximum flexibility when lifting or rotating heavy workpieces such as trailer frames or large vessels.

 

Clamping Welding Collets

Fixture welding chucks are specialized fixtures designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the welding industry. They are primarily used to hold custom metal parts that are fixed to the spindle box/tailstock and can therefore be welded. Our chuck welding rental equipment is a cost effective way to increase your welding capabilities and efficiency. We offer the highest quality equipment at an affordable price.

 

Universal Welding Positioners

Universal weld positioners use a variety of methods to hold and position the part for welding, allowing the part to rotate or pivot a full 360° so the welder can stay in one position on a safe, flat surface. General welding positioners are those that do not fall into one of the major welding positioner categories.

How does the Pipe Weld Positioner work?

The Pipe Weld Positioner operates efficiently by gripping the pipe joint or valve and rotating the workpiece as needed, so the welder can continuously weld the pipe joint in a flat position without interruption in the process. This allows the welder to keep the weld pool in the pipe joint without having to manipulate the torch or weld clamp.

 

Pipe weld positioners are practical for improving weld deposition rates and reducing scrap rates because they allow better access to the weld on the pipe. Welding fixtures or weld positioners help operators weld at a faster rate than manual or semi-automatic weld setups.

 

How do I properly use a Pipe weld positioner? 

Safety is always a top priority when operating a Pipe weld positioner. - It is important to ensure that your Pipe welding positioner is always fixed on a flat, stable surface. The tabletop Pipe welding positioner should also be secured.

 

It is also important to check the manufacturer's specifications of the Pipe welding positioner. - The motor and controls depend on the size and speed required for the welder to perform, and the manufacturer's specifications will tell you if the welding positioner can handle the operation you need to perform.

 

A ground current should also be connected to the positioner during the welding process. - Without it, electrical components may be damaged. You should also make sure that the positioner is compatible with the current generated by the welding process.
