WELDING MANIPULATORS
WELDING MANIPULATORS, AUTOMATED PIPE WELDING MACHINES, WELDING GANTRY & WELDING AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS
Purple Engineering provides the largest range of Welding Manipulators, Welding Gantry & Welding Automation Solutions in Australia.
Our pipe Welding Manipulators, Auto Pipe Welding Machines, Welding Gantry & Welding Automation Solutions are designed & made by Pipe Stand Automation in Canada.
Our column and boom manipulators with weld boom stiffness and welding head stability, operator controls, and ease of use as key driving factors.
Automatic welding heads (typically submerged arc) are designed to be mounted on a stiff and nearly vibrationless boom, and moved to desired height with powered column.
The welding head can then be positioned as required for automated welding of large vessels or other workpieces.
