Air Liquide, Montreal, QC has introduced automated plasma welding systems in Canada under a new Advanced Fabrication Technologies (AFT) program.
This automated electric welding technology, which has full penetration
capacity, allows piping and vessel manufacturers to achieve significant
productivity gains and save on both time and materials. With plasma
welding, base materials ranging in thickness from 3 to 10 mm can be
welded with a square edge butt joint preparation (single pass), without
requiring multiple filling passes. In addition, owing to the automated
process (vertical or horizontal position) and the low-profile bead
shape, post-weld operations are much reduced.
