SeamTec™ Welder
Ver. 3.1
The SeamTec Advantage
9
Features
6
1. D
esigned for easy integration into
roll mills, stand-alone or robotic
applications.
2. C
ompact design allows for “on bed”
mounting in roll mills adjacent to roll
stand tooling and allows very tight
stand-alone machine applications.
Also allows for mounting on roll mill
tooling rafts. 3. S
elf equalizing heads move linearly
with little effort to help minimize
force on the work piece and to
provide automatic compensation for
wheel wear or dressing.
3
4. U
pper and lower head assemblies
are interchangeable so less spares
are required. 7
5. D
esigned with maintenance in mind.
Main equalizing shafts “tip out”
to allow the front end be lifted out
as a package for service and head
replacement. 6. A
ll services on board, complete with
water flow indicators for all circuits
to help prevent over heating.
8
7. I n-line automated wheel dressing is
available that can accommodate both
coated and uncoated materials.
8. W
heel wear limits are clearly
indicated on wheels but a safety
switch ultimately alerts of maximum
wheel wear.
9. L ifting holes for moving entire
welder.

Additional Features:
• Very low height from mounting surface to “pass line” eliminates the need to “split” roll tooling into two mills or
have drive shafts wrap around as on typical floor mounted seam welders.
• N
o synchronization of drive speeds required between the material speed and welder. In most cases the wheels are
driven by the part flow.
• H
igh force capabilities combined with Mid Frequency DC welding technology allowing welding of high strength
steels. (AC versions available on SeamTec1200 only)
• T ravel speeds typically range from 100–180 mm/sec (20–35 feet/min.) depending on materials and weld
requirements; 203 mm/sec (40 feet/min.) has been achieved for some applications.
