1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. Application
The OSC 8 pendulum oscillator is designed to oscillate MIG/MAG torches with the
diameter of 16
–22 mm (5/8–7/8″). The oscillator is installed onto a 22 mm (7/8″)
diameter rod and powered from the welding equipment. Can be controlled manually
or by using an external START-STOP switch.
Using an optional freestanding support allows you to weld pipes that rotate and
plates that move. Using an optional power supply allows you to connect
the
oscillator
to
a 115 V or 230
V
power
source.
The oscillator can also be used on the Rail Runner 2 welding carriage to allow
work with or without seam tracking.
