Pipe Flange Welding Machine
The flange is seated square on the pipe, the torch travels the joint in one stored program, and the face stays flat enough to check with a straight edge afterwards — not with a hammer and a re-face.
Key Selling Points
- DN50–800 on one machine: spool sizes that normally need three setups
- Heat goes in evenly around the full circumference, so distortion repeats instead of accumulating
- 100 stored programs, recalled by flange size — no re-dialling between jobs
- Water-cooled torch, argon shielded, 60% duty cycle at 400A
Why flange joints get reworked
A manual TIG flange weld fails in one of three ways, and all three are position problems rather than welder skill.
The torch angle drifts as the operator walks around the pipe. The flange is seated a fraction off square before the arc starts. And the heat input changes as the part warms up, so the last quarter of the joint runs hotter than the first. The result passes visual and fails the squareness check, or holds square and leaks at the root on the hydro test.
On a flange welding machine those three variables stop being operator decisions. The torch is held at a fixed angle relative to the joint, the pipe is clamped on centre in a chuck so the flange registers against a machined
face, and the current ramps on a stored program that ends the same way it started. The operator's job becomes: clean the joint, seat the flange, recall the right program.
