GANTRY
ROLL WELD PLANISHER
Using up to 14,000 pounds of force between a steel roll and the supported
part the seam weld nugget is cold worked and reduced in size by the pressure of
the roll weld planisher harden steel roll against the solid mandrel.. Perfect to
planishing weld seams on tube or pipe. This weld finish process can
eliminate the weld into a seamless welded part. Weld seam planishing increases the weld's
strength. Little need for time consuming grinding, while producing a better
looking appearance.
The
Roll Gantry Planisher uses a 6 inch/152mm diameter steel roll to
flatten and eliminate the weld crown. The wheel is mounted to a travel carriage where an air ram pump
exerts pressure between the part and planisher roll. The welded part is mounted on the mandrel
where it remains stationary during the planishing operation. Engineered to
provide many part
shapes and sizes can be planished using a combination of different wheel surface
profiles or support mandrel geometries.
The motorized planisher gantry carriage travels on four linear rail bearing blocks.
Powered by a 2 Hp electric motor, the carriage contains an 8 inch/203mm
stroke air ram pump. The hand wheel is used to adjust the ram’s travel.
Our gantry weld planisher has special control panel plus operator safety screen made of expanded
metal.
Weld Planishers are some of the most useful tools to improve welds cosmetic
appearance as well improving the welded metal joint's strength. Welding
planishers are often used from everything from aerospace parts and devices to
common stainless kitchen sinks.
MITUSA, Inc. Weld Planisher designs are for carbon, aluminum, stainless welded
metal weld bean crown removal. Our company offers standard gantry and longitudinal
welding planishers. Or let our engineering group design one for your special welding
fabrication application. Planishing is best on thinner gage metals, let us
know your planishing fabrication application needs, we can help.
Our company or related companies have been building welding planishers
for over 20 years.
