Welding positioner
1000 - 3000 kg | TAP series ESAB

Welding times can be drastically reduced by placing the workpiece on a positioner when welding. Up to 25 – 30 % higher welding speed can be achieved if the joint is welded lying down instead of vertically. The optimum welding position can always be obtained with ESAB´s positioners.

Welding in the optimum position improves the welding quality as welding work becomes considerably easier for the welder to carry out in a safer way. The arc time factor also increases when welding in the positioner, especially when working on large, heavy workpieces. The changes in position of the workpiece is reduced to a minimum in comparison to using a spindle guide or other lifting tool, which often means unproductive waiting times.

ESAB has one of the market’s widest program ranges of positioners for welding and these can also be used for installation work. During automated welding, a positioner is often a part of the total application.
