How to Choose the Right Welding Positioner
When selecting a workholding device like a welding positioner, the key considerations should always center around your specific project requirements.
- What is the weight capacity required for the workpieces being handled?
- Is precise, multi-axis rotation a necessity for your welding tasks?
- Is Would added mobility or powered rotation speed up your processes?
- Are customizable features, such as specialized brakes, aligned with the type of projects you undertake?
Whether you’re improving safety on the shop floor or aiming for flawless, consistent welds, selecting the right positioner can make all the difference. One standout option to consider is the Koike Aronson Ransome Universal Balance Welding Positioner. This workholding device is uniquely designed to cater to the most demanding manufacturing processes.
Why the Universal Balance Welding Positioner Stands Out
Combining advanced engineering and practical usability, this positioner enhances efficiency and ensures a smooth workflow on the shop floor.
- Effortless Positioning
- Superior Access
- Balanced and Adjustable
- Built for Versatility
Utilizing a unique universal balance principle, the positioner aligns the rotational and tilt axes directly with the workpiece’s center of gravity. Why is this important? It allows for 360-degree rotation and tilt with minimal effort, even around the positioner column. By using fingertip pressure, welders can manipulate even heavy workpieces, reducing operator strain and removing the need to disrupt weld arcs to reposition.
Full-axis movement means you’ll have unhindered access to any spot on your workpiece. Whether it’s a positioning the weldment into a down-hand weld or addressing those hard-to-reach corners, the Universal Balance Welding Positioner gives you the freedom to focus entirely on the quality of your welds.
Its adjustable arm and gearbox make it easy to align the tilt axis with the workpiece’s center of gravity. A straightforward worm adjustment ensures perfect balance, allowing you to move the workpiece effortlessly and with confidence.
With load capacities ranging from 100 lbs to 4,000 lbs, this welding positioner is ready to handle projects of all sizes. Optional features, such as variable-speed powered axes, further enhance its capabilities, making it an excellent choice for semi-automated welding processes.
From improving safety to enhancing control over every weld you make, this positioner provides practical functionality that boosts workplace efficiency.
Top Features
- Precision Machined Tables:The tables are designed to provide maximum stability and support to your workpieces, ensuring perfect alignment for clean, precise welds.
- Caster Base Option for Mobility:Need flexibility on the shop floor? With an optional caster base, you can move the positioner to different stations or welding zones effortlessly.
- Manual Height Adjustment:Adjust the height of the workpiece without complications. This flexibility is particularly useful for accommodating different projects and achieving your desired working position.
- Friction Lock Brakes:Stability is key when working with large objects. The robust friction-lock brakes keep your workpiece steady, giving you optimal control during welding.
- Optional Powered Rotation:For those looking to improve productivity further, powered rotation is available. This feature speeds up your process, making it ideal for high-volume applications or when consistent speed is essential for accuracy.
