Motorized carriage GK-200-F

adjustable

The KAT® weld automation carriage with linear oscillator is designed to increase production and improve the quality of the weld produced in automatic mechanized welding operations by minimizing weld defects such as poor penetration, incomplete fusion, overlap and undercut. The GK-200-F Series automation carriages come with the universally independant linear oscillation head which is capable of pivoting and allows for the head to be positioned into the weld joint regardless of carriage position. The linear oscillator head produces step (square pattern) motion to the welding gun with adjustable motorized stroke width, infinitely variable stroke speed adjustment, three independent position dwell times, motorized centre line positioning and automatic wire feed start and travel start/stop interface. By combining welding gun oscillation movement with the precision controlled travel speed of the KAT® carriage increased weld quality and consistency can be achieved while reducing the overall production cost of the welding application. Up to 10 weld programs can be produced and stored.
