Laser lamp (0821 440 880)

If there is no suitable edge along which to
steer the welding tractor mechanically, for
example when making an I-joint, the laser
lamp will be helpful with submerged-arc
welding in order to indicate the position of the
welding nozzle in the joint.
See chapter "ACCESSORIES".

Guide wheel bogey (0413 542 880)

Use of the guide wheel bogey in a V-joint
allows the welding tractor to track the joint.
The welding tractor can pass over tack welds
without problems, and without losing the
track. The guide wheel bogey is secured to
the contact tube, and the welding nozzle is
positioned to weld behind the guide wheel
bogey.
See chapter "ACCESSORIES".
