Product descriptionThe CLIMAX BW2600 Auto Bore Welder is a compact, field-ready bore welding unit engineered for controlled, repeatable restoration and repair of bores in heavy equipment and line-boring applications. It is compatible with MIG wire-feed systems and built for straightforward setup and service.
Integration and controlThe BW2600 integrates with existing MIG wire feed systems and provides advanced bore welding control: cam-actuated skip/fill with burn-back control, fully adjustable mechanical step, reversible rotation and a step-lockout for accurate face welding. An optional remote pendant enables precise remote control of rotation, weld start/stop, arc interrupt and speed adjustments.
Product advantages- Precise torch alignment — Swivel head with ball-and-seat arrangement for repeatable torch positioning.
- Automated skip/fill — Nock-driven programming of WELD ONLY or NO WELD bore sections (up to 180°) with full rotation between sections.
- Reverse rotation — Simplifies multi-pass welding by alternating uphill/downhill passes.
- Remote pendant control — Operator can jog rotation, start/stop welds and adjust speed from a safe, convenient position.
- Flexible operation — Free-position spindle for quick torch positioning and consumable changes; adjustable step feed to optimize bead placement and reduce end voids.
- Run mode — Worm-gear knob for incremental axial start-point adjustments.
- Boring Bar Interface Kit — Fast alignment and attachment to CLIMAX line boring systems for quick turnover between welding and boring.
- Adjustable non-magnetic base — Mounts to a variety of workpieces when a boring bar is not used.
