Description
The machine can be used as an in-shop installation and with anodized
aluminum components, it is also suited for clean room applications. The
machine enables users to enter the data that are relevant for the weld-
ing process and for the traceability of the welded joint. From the entered
welding parameters, it calculates the applicable forces and temperatures
and controls the welding process automatically.
All welding and traceability data are entered either directly on a touch-
screen panel or read from a bar code using a scanning pen. The welding
process in monitored in its entirety and saved to a welding report. All weld-
ing reports can the be printed or transferred to a computer with a suitable
pipeline network management software (such as DataWork agru).
Using the menus displayed on the touchscreen, the machine can be custom-
ized to the application at hand (see section 4.3, Configuring the Machine).
