Our all-in-one beam fabrication solution.

We aim to provide an all-in-one solution for our clients. The plate cleaning and beveling machine with centerline mill scale removal ensures consistency and quality. Taking care of all the preparation before the beam is assembled and welded in our state of the art beam welding line. We are capable of manufacturing many different kinds of plate girders according to the required specification.

Technical Description

The beam welding line uses a dual tandem submerged arc welding process powered by four square sine wave power sources.  This allows the process to be set to use a DC equivalent process for the lead arcs while using a deposition biased square sine wave AC process for the trailing arcs.  By doing this we are able to maximise root penetration while also optimising deposition rates and minimising heat input.
