Orbitalum HX 25P is an Enclosed Orbital Weld Head specifically designed for the automatic TIG welding of tube elbows in the production of compact heat exchangers. The head is intended for pipes with an Outer Diameter (OD) of 18.0 mm to 25.4 mm. Its narrow design allows operation with high tube density, where the distance between them is less than 60 mm, which is critical for ensuring the high efficiency of heat exchangers.
Features and Advantages
Narrow Design for High Density: Allows welding pipes with a minimal distance between them—less than 60 mm, ensuring high heat exchanger efficiency.
High Productivity: Significantly reduces welding time (approx. 30 s per pipe), providing up to 250 welds per head per shift and 50% less preparation time compared to manual welding.
Automatic Pneumatic Clamping: The head pneumatically self-clamps onto the pipe with the push of a button, greatly accelerating and simplifying the clamping and positioning process.
High Weld Quality: The closed welding chamber and continuous process ensure clean fusion and no annealing colors, eliminating the need for expensive post-weld treatment (pickling, passivation).
Liquid Cooling: The liquid-cooled rotor housing ensures high load resistance and durability, enabling 250 welds per shift.
Ease of Operation: Orbitalum welding machines automatically recognize the head, allowing even semi-skilled personnel to achieve consistently high weld quality (reducing rejection rates to less than 0.7%).
Ergonomics: The very straight design facilitates the rotation and maneuvering of the head on the heat exchanger.
Welding Versatility: Welding is possible in horizontal, side, and inclined positions.
Standard Equipment
Orbitalum HX 25P orbital weld head with liquid-cooled rotor housing.
Pneumatic pipe fixation mechanism (self-clamping).
Integrated button for clamping and starting the process directly on the head.
Limit Stop with coarse and fine adjustment for reliable positioning.
