Electroslag welding (ESW) is a method of strip cladding, but differs from SAW strip cladding in that the arc is created between the electrode and the workpiece. The welding flux that is put into the joint melts and a slag pool is produced, which then increases in depth. When the temperature of the slag and its conductive capacity thereby increases, the arc is extinguished and the welding current is conducted via the molten slag where the necessary welding energy is produced through resistance. This method can be used for joining thicknesses of 25 mm (1 in.) and above. Contact ESAB for Ordering Information and Technical Data for the ESW Welding Head.

Highly stabilized manipulation of welding torches with optimized welding results

Rigid legs supported by encoder-controlled DC-driven bogie carriages as well as a cross beam to ensure uniform, stable welding speed. The gantry beam is equipped with guides and a rack on one or both sides for motorized welding carriages. The well-proven A6 welding heads are mounted on heavyduty slides with comprehensive working strokes to obtain good access to the workpieces. Incorporates the A2-A6 process controller PEK, equipped with GMH automatic joint tracking to control the vertical and horizontal axes. Submerged arc welding (SAW) is the ideal method for the applications intended for this station. The flux handling equipment can be operated conveniently, without time-wasting interruptions. At the same time as flux consumption is reduced, the workplace is kept clean and free from flux spillage. The welding heads can be turned 180 degrees for welding in both X-directions as well as 90 degrees for welding in Y-direction across the beam. A large number of positioning axes permit flexible welding production.

AVPS Laser Seam Tracking System

Laser vision sensing improves the productivity and quality of circumferential, longitudinal welding processes as typically found in wind tower manufacturing. Longitudinal weld seam tracking on roll-formed tubes. Inside circumferential weld seam tracking. Outside circumferential weld seam tracking. Servo-Robots intelligent seam tracking technology, combined with ESABs GMH joint tracking system and pendant control, maintains precise wire position both in the joint and with respect to the vertical direction ensuring a consistent wire stickout. Parameters are easily set with the ESAB remote control pendant eliminating the need for special operator training. The operator selects the correct joint template (butt, groove, etc.) using the remote control pendant. The welding head is mounted on a motorized double servo slide where the head can be moved up-down and left-right. The Servo-Robot Mini-Box Control Unit is at the center of the tracking acting as both a vision control unit and as a process control unit which communicates with the GMH system to perform the tracking tasks.

FX-Series High Heat Flux Ovens

For the heated storage of welding flux The HT Series Flux ovens are unique, automatic, 3 stage
heating machines with a bottom loading hopper. The heating cells are divided into three zones: 1. The first cell automatically transfers 1/3 of the rated load capacity of flux from the bottom loading hopper to the first preheat cell. 2. After the flux is preheated to a set temperature and time, it is automatically transferred to the second high-temperature baking cell. 3. After the flux is baked to a set temperature and time, the flux is automatically transferred to a third or bottom storage cell where the flux is easily removed via a manual lever.

Special Applications
Friction Stir Welding

Quality in depth
The Friction Stir Welding (FSW) method is based on the principle of obtaining a sufficiently high temperature and pressure to join two components together by using a rotating tool, which under high pressure, moves along the joint, thereby creating a weld. FSW is ideal for joining straight profiles and flat plates from 1.2 to 130 mm (0.045 - 1.18 in.) with full penetration. Butt, lap and corner joints can be welded.
Key benefits Suitable applications

Shipbuilding / Offshore platforms Aerospace industry Railway wagons, streetcars, underground train carriages Automotive industry Production of electric motors Defense industry Cooling elements Basically all aluminum, copper and magnesium alloys can be Friction Stir welded with high quality and speed. Minimal distortion and shrinkage No joint preparation - degreasing only No grinding, polishing or straightening No repair welding Reduced weight (40% less than GMAW) High joint-gap tolerance Consistent weld quality Increased tensile strength Outstanding fatigue properties No fumes, sparks or spatter Low noise level Simple operation (HMI) Improved repeatability
SuperStir Friction Stir Welding System

The ESAB SuperStir range is designed for high-volume production of large aluminum panels, girders and trusses. The large custom-designed units offer a safe, clean and simple welding process that can be fully automated, dramatically reducing production costs. ESAB SuperStir FSW technology is applied across the entire industrial spectrum, from shipping, offshore, construction and transportation to defense and aerospace.

Legio Friction Stir Welding

A modular Friction Stir Welding system
The modular system makes it possible to assemble welding stations to suit the most varied Friction Stir welding applications. In a series of seven sizes there are five basic designs - S, ST, U, UT and double headed ST. The S-and ST-models are designed for linear welding (x and z), U-and UT-models for 2-D (x-y and z) and double headed versions are for welding hollow profiles. These basic types can be supplemented with different types of equipment to suit the most varied production needs with maximum flexibility to any production line. The larger S- and U-models are designed to be easily integrated with larger fixtures, rotary units and exchangeable clamping systems. For the production of smaller workpieces, the UT- and the ST-model are the most suitable. They have tables prepared with a hole pattern where fixtures can be attached. All machines are designed with a rigid framework for high performance during load conditions. The welding head travels on heavy-duty linear bearings and is driven by a rack and pinion drive system. All LEGIOTM machines have an ESAB HMI (Human Machine Interface) control system, specially developed for Friction Stir Welding. Control the welding process (the vertical Z-axis) either by force or position control; a hydraulic cylinder with a closed loop system controls the Z-axis.

Rosio Friction Stir Welding Robot

Friction Stir Robot for welding challenging joints
The ESAB Friction Stir Welding robot system enables flexible joining of complex structures, ideally aluminum. The ability to perform welds in an arbitrary direction of a 3-dimensional workspace increases the possibilities of usage for new challenging FSW applications. The cell consists of an ABB IRB 7600 robot, modified for the purpose of FSW. The welding equipment is integrated in the mechanical structure of the robot without limiting the robots standard working envelope. The robots reachable workspace spans over 2.5 meters (8.2 ft.), in which a down force of up to 13 kN may be applied during welding. Running on the state-of-the-art control system IRC5, an embedded force control solution allows in-contact motions with high accuracy. An extension to the standard motion programming language is included - this extension includes instructions for welding linear in arbitrary directions, circular and square shaped paths, as well as functionalities to support custom made path programming and spindle operations. To provide valuable feedback to the operator, a manmachine-interface is included extending the IRC5s own interface on the Flex Pendant, based on WinCE.

Hybrio - Hybrid Laser Welding

Lighting the way
ESABs Hybrio hybrid laser welding technology combines the deep weld penetration and low heat input associated with laser welding with the excellent weld properties and superior gap tolerance of gas metal arc welding (GMAW). A radically new welding alternative, it produces extremely narrow and deep welds at very high travel speeds. In a single pass, the Hybrio process can often achieve what might require multiple weld passes using a conventional fusion welding process. Heat input to the part is reduced, as is the associated weld shrinkage and distortion that can make post-welding geometry unpredictable - and costly to repair. Using gas metal arc welding (GMAW) in combination with a laser, the Hybrio process overcomes the limitations of laser-only welding with its ability to produce quality welds in joints with less-than-perfect fit-up between parts. This enables a widened, more robust process envelope by a factor of three compared to a conventional laser-only process. GMAW also allows users to add filler metal to adjust the welds metallurgical properties and create beads and fillets, while the slower cooling rate reduces hardness. These features are especially beneficial when joining high performance carbon and stainless steels. ESABs exclusive adaptive closed-loop control system detects joint fit-up conditions and changes the process parameters in real-time to achieve a constant weld profile. This broadens the process window by a further 5 times over non-adaptive control.

Hybrio - Hybrid Laser Welding

Hybrio Flex
The Hybrio Flex flexible hybrid laser welding cell is based upon a modular, six-axis motion system platform that can be scaled to cover a large range of working envelopes up to 4 m x 20 m (13 ft x 67 ft) and longer. Additionally, this system can be configured to cover a range of Z-axis depths from 1 m to 3 m (3 to 10 ft.). This gives the user the flexibility to use the Hybrio Flex system for a large variety of product geometries and weld joint configurations.
Hybrio Beam
The Hybrio Beam hybrid laser beam welding system is based upon ESABs robust submerged-arc beam welding systems that can be found in plants around the world. These systems come in horizontal and vertical configurations and are designed to center and feed web and flange parts through a fixed welding station. Components are aligned and pressed together ensuring excellent joint conditions at the point of welding. Equipped with the Hybrio process, these systems can out-produce traditional beam welding equipment by a factor of three to ten times depending on the web thickness.
Hybrio Seam
Hybrio Seam hybrid laser seam welding systems cover a range of raw sheet and plate thicknesses and sizes from small sheet and coil joining systems to large panel line plate welding machines. These systems are designed to press and clamp sheet or plate joints into position as the Hybrio process moves along the joint, performing the weld. These systems can achieve single-side, full-penetration butt welds up to 12.5 mm (1/2 in.) in thickness in a single pass and thicker with subsequent passes.
Hybrio Tube
Hybrio Tube hybrid laser tube and pipe systems are longitudinal seam welding systems designed to press the material together at the weld joint to achieve the fit up needed for HLAW welding. The part is then drawn through the machine to perform the weld. These systems can produce straight or tapered tubes and pipes up to 1 m (3 ft.) in diameter and with wall thicknesses up to 12.5 mm (1/2 in.).
Hybrio Orbit
The Hybrio Orbit hybrid laser pipe girth welding system is specially designed for welding full pipe girths as well as for rapidly producing high-quality root passes for subsequent processing with traditional high-deposition processes. These are fully orbital welding systems, capable of 360 degree continuous welds around cylindrical products with very low clearances. The Hybrio Orbit system was specifically developed for the oil and gas industry, but has applications in many other industry segments.

Beam Welding - Pull Through Welders

For welding beams and profiles
ESAB offers a complete and effective way of welding beams and profiles. Whether you weld I-, T- or L-beams, wide flange beams, columns, tapered beams or nonsymmetrical beams, ESAB has the expertise and welding equipment to match your efficiency, quality, precision, versatility, productivity, and overall welding economy requirements. Two types of machines: IT-machines where the beams are welded with the web unit in the vertical position, and I-machines, where the beams are produced in horizontal position. High production capacity and perfect weld quality. The welding operation takes place when the flange and the web are pressed together under pressure in order completely to eliminate the gap between the surfaces.

Welding Solutions for Pipemills

Our experience and knowledge - your benefit! Flexible, reliable welding equipment
A wide range of products developed in-house for various multi-wire submerged arc welding (SAW) applications which are particularly suitable for pipe welding.
Precise, high-speed longitudinal welding

Our concept for longitudinal SAW is suitable for pipes in a normal diameter range of 508-1626 mm (20-64 in.), a normal wall thickness of 6-40 mm (0.24-1.57 in.) and a length of up to 18 m (708.66 in.).
Internal and external welding

For internal welding we have designed pre-stressed booms and welding heads for up to four wires. The external welding station is based on a column and boom solution with a very stable cross-slide to adapt to different pipe diameters.
Internal welding
Return current systems (grounding)

High current circuits have to be closed back to the power source by efficient systems at constantly moving pipes. Flexible steel brushes in two rows in front and behind the welding process are pressed with defined force from outside to the pipe to catch the current with a minimum of voltage loss and to surely avoid any arc blow effect, which would disturb the weld process.
Problem-free flux and wire feed systems Smooth feeding of wire in different diameters and
equally straightforward supply of new and re-used flux. The correct combination of compressed air, flux feeding, easy replenishment of new flux via the Big/Bag system, a vacuum unit, a reliable magnetic separator and continuous recovery helps to create welding stations with less downtime, high-quality welds and a cleaner working environment.
External welding
Spiral pipe welding

Internal and external welding is performed at one and the same station. Internal welding starts first and, after half a turn, external welding then begins - internally with two or in some cases three wires and externally with one or three wires in the welding process, depending on the diameter and wall thickness of the pipe.
96
Windmill Tower Manufacturing

Dedicated solutions for dedicated manufacturers
The key to efficient production of wind towers is smooth component flow in the workshop. The benefit of a high deposition welding process is completely lost if the set-up or handling of components in any area of the process fails or takes an unacceptable amount of time. ESAB can assist with the welding and cutting process in wind tower production and deliver finely tuned solutions for each step in the production process. With a complete package from ESAB, you only need to work with one supplier for product, service and support. This results in a large project being organized efficiently, with a fixed cost and agreed time schedule. Smooth production flow is part of the complete delivery.
Oxy-fuel or plasma cutting of plate and seam preparation.
Submerged arc welding of flanges and supports.
Rolling, forming and tack welding of the shell.
Joining of shell sections using roller beds with hydraulic fit-up system. Internal and external submerged arc welding performed by a column and boom station.

ESAB Retrofit

System upgrades for a modern solution

ESABs service group can upgrade any brand of existing equipment to virtually new condition, with the latest process equipment and accessories. Accessories include seam trackers, flux recovery systems, wire handling equipment, strip cladding equipment - all can be added to existing equipment. Material quality, thickness and required properties will determine the most suitable welding process. Over a time these conditions will change which might lead to a change of process. ESAB can offer a variety of different welding heads for different processes to be fitted to any carrier. ESAB Retrofit is an ideal alternative to investment in new equipment. In addition to increased availability, a conversion of this kind frequently leads to a substantial rise in productivity and quality, not to mention improvements to the working environment. ESAB works with many OEMs for equipment - specify the ESAB process system and accessories and get the advantage of ESAB performance from your existing machinery.
Why Retrofit? It is difficult to find parts for your old equipment.

The productivity is too low with your present equipment. The quality of the process is unacceptable. The process is not ideal for the present production.
Time to Retrofit?
What kind of carrier can be retrofitted?

ESAB can retrofit manipulators, gantries, seamers, shipyard panel lines, flash butt welding machines, etc. Integration of welding equipment to new carriers or production lines produced by integrators of automation equipment for example pipemills, panel lines etc. We do small retrofits by just replacing the existing equipment and we do large integrated solutions.

Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW)

Process
Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) and Metal Cored Arc Welding (MCAW) are similar to GMAW as far as operation and equipment are concerned. The main difference between FCAW/MCAW and GMAW is that the wire is not solid, but consists of a metal sheath surrounding a flux core. Wire begins as a flat metal strip which is formed into a U shape. Flux and alloying materials are deposited into the U which is then closed into a tube by a series of forming rolls.
Advantages
High deposition rates and efficiency, up to 98%. Excellent weld bead appearance with little or no spatter. Deep arc penetration when welding - allows tighter joint design, reducing quantity of filler metal needed to fill the joint.
Wide selection of alloys available. Metal cored wires have high current capacity and produce little to no slag - very high weld efficiency and deposition rates are possible.

Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)

Process
Arc is struck between the workpiece and the end of a consumable electrode, both of which are covered by a layer of granular flux covering the arc. Some of the flux melts to provide a protective slag cover over the weld pool; the remainder can be collected for re-use. Principally carried out with fully automated equipment. For increased productivity, cored wires or arrangements of multiple solid wires can be introduced. Because of its high metal deposition rate, it is particularly suited to long straight joints of good quality in the flat position. It is widely used in the pressure vessel, chemical plant, heavy structural, repair and shipbuilding industries and wind mill tower fabrication.
Advantages
Very high deposition rates and travel speeds. Excellent and consistent weld quality. Deep arc penetration when welding - allows tighter joint design, increasing productivity and reducing amount of filler metal needed to fill the joint. Operating factor can approach 100%. No fumes or arc radiation.

Strip Cladding
Process
Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) or Electroslag Welding (ESW) typically used for cladding large areas. Both methods offer a high deposition rate in terms of both kg/h and area coverage (m2/h), combined with low penetration and high deposit quality. Stainless steel strip cladding is widely used in the production of components for the chemical, petrochemical and nuclear industries.
SAW Strip Cladding

An electric arc is formed between the strip electrode and the workpiece. Flux is used to form a molten slag to protect the weld pool from the atmosphere and helps form a smooth weld bead surface.
ESW Strip Cladding

A development of SAW strip; established as a reliable high deposition rate process. An arc-less method using ohmic heating to melt the strip/ flux/parent material. Current flows through the strip electrode and a comparatively shallow layer of liquid electro-conductive slag. Penetration is lower for ESW than for SAW since the molten slag pool is used to melt the strip and some of the parent material rather than as an arc between the strip electrode and the parent material. ESW strip surfacing reduces dilution by up to 50% compared with SAW strip surfacing for the same heat input with a significantly higher deposition rate.
Advantages Reduces the need for expensive highly-alloyed base mate

rial, such as stainless steel or nickel-base alloys. Choose from a wide variety of parent materials and consumables. High deposition processes with low dilution. Allows for flexibility in the production of pieces in varying shapes and sizes.
