Development of Pipeline Automatic Welding Equipment

At present, the welding industry regards the realization of mechanization and automation of the welding process as a strategic goal. The welding automation industry is an emerging industry and is currently in the development stage. Since the 1990s, with the further maturity of the socialist market economy, the welding industry has developed by leaps and bounds, but welding automation as an emerging industry is still in its infancy. At present, on-site welding is still dominated by traditional manual welding. There are the following problems: 1. The welding work intensity is high, the production efficiency is low, and the construction process is slow; 2. The preparation time of some argon arc welding processes is long and the welding speed is slow; 3. The technical requirements of welders are high, and it is difficult to recruit high-level welders; 4. . The pipeline is dense and complex, and the construction environment is poor; 5. There are many factors affecting welding, the welding performance is unstable, and the welding forming is poor.

The all-position automatic welding machine( orbital welding machine/ automatic pipeline welding equipment) is an efficient automatic welding machine/equipment developed to meet the increasingly developing various pipeline welding conditions, because pipeline welding includes pipeline welding in various industries: chemical industry, shipbuilding industry, heating pipes, long-distance oil and gas transportation pipeline etc. Among them, the most demanding welds are oil and gas long-distance transportation pipelines. These welds require skilled workers with super high welding skills to complete high-quality welds. At the same time, the labor intensity of workers during the operation is high, and the efficiency is also particularly low. Therefore, the all-position automatic welding machine came into being, which completely solved this problem. Using the automatic welding machine, the welding parameters can be prefabricated in advance, and the welding is automatic. The welder only needs to pay attention to the welding seam and the molten pool, and the rest is left to the automatic welding machine( automatic welder/automatic mig welding machine).

According to relevant data, the welding automation rate is only about 30%, and the future development potential is huge and the prospects are bright. The welding industry is gradually moving towards "high efficiency, automation and intelligence".
