Narrow Lap Seam Welder
Coil Width: 18" to 48" (457 mm to 1219 mm)
Coil Thickness: .003" to .036" (0.07 mm to 0.9 mm
Applications:
Narrow-Lap Seam Welders are designed for high-speed, continuous operation such as electrolytic tinning, cleaning and annealing lines where strip joining time must be minimized.
To achieve maximum speed, T-W Narrow-Lap Welders are completely pneumatic. Down-cut shear is "raked" to provide maximum vertical clearance for strip and operator visibility. T-W has designed and built over 150 Narrow-Lap Welders to meet exacting coil joining requirements.
Description:
Although not as thin as Prep/Lap or C-Flat joints, the Narrow-Lap joint is less than double the strip thickness.
A single-pass welding technique, along with an entry strip pre loading mechanism and scrap-end retractor (optional), make it the fastest continuous seam welder available today.
Fully automated Taylor-Winfield Narrow-Lap Welders utilize the latest electronic, mechanical and welding advancements to eliminate the potential for incorrect operator input.
Scrap-end retractors are available as table type (illustrated) or pinch roll type.
