Orbital welding head SATFX-52

water-cooledTIGfor tubes

Overview
The SATFX-52 closed weld head is designed for confined-space orbital welding using a fusion process without filler metal. It is suited to thin tubes (wall < 3 mm) and to oxidation-sensitive nickel or titanium alloys. The compact, water-cooled head enables use on sites with limited straight runs, in workshops and in cleanrooms.

Applications / Industries
Commonly used in aerospace, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and food processing where chemical and thermal resistance and high-purity processes are required.

Key Features

• Optimized gas diffusion for superior arc stability and consistent welds
• Grease-free operation compatible with cleanroom and high-purity standards
• Stainless steel jaws for quick, tool-free assembly
• Standard and wide clamping jaws available for increased rigidity when welding accessories
• Adjustable force clamping system for precise, repeatable tube alignment
• Wide pivoting window with Shade 10 welding lens for improved visibility
• Integrated remote control (start/stop, gas, electrode rotation) with illuminated status indicator
• Easy cleaning and maintenance to reduce downtime
• Optional cassettes for welding in confined spaces
• 8 m (27 ft) lead length for extended operator mobility

Accessory / Option Notes
Cassettes (accessory) are designed for welding in confined areas and allow easy positioning before securing the head central body. Stainless steel jaws are offered in standard and wide clamping options to increase rigidity when welding accessories.
