AristoMechTig C2002i, AristoMechTig 4000i, Aristo MechControl 2 & 4

Aristo MechTig C2002i is a compact, robust and easy-touse 200A power generator, with built-in cooling unit for the water cooled torches, control system with graphic interface, program library and capacity of self-generation of welding programmes. Aristo MechControl 2 is a control unit featuring the same functions of the Aristo MechTig C2002i, but without power generator generator and cooling unit. Aristo MechControl 4 is similar to Aristo MechControl 2, with in addition AVC (Arc Voltage Control) and weaving functions. AristoMechTig 4000i is a power generator to be used in conjunction with the Aristo MechControl 2 or Aristo MechControl 4 control units, having 400A capacity and built-in cooling unit for water-cooled torches. The large 10 colour display helps obtaining the best performances and the Windows user interface make it easy searching programmes from the integrated library or the automatic generation of customized programmes, simply introducing data such as type of material, external diameter and tube wall thickness. New programmes can be added to the existing library. Alternatively, all welding parameters can be manually set by means of a graphic interface or electronic spreadsheet. Integrated printer, to produce copy on paper of the programmed welding parameters and of the measured values related to speed, current, voltage, wire and power. USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection to transfer welding programmes between different machines, to store and to update programmes. ESAB offers a wide range of welding heads compatible with the new machines, to build complete orbital welding systems suitable for all applications. The Weldoc WMS 4000 monitoring and documentation system is available, to satisfy the needs of the ISO 9000/SS-EN729 international quality system. Alternatively, the SPS 4000 system can store the pre-set programmes. The MechT 1 CAN remote control unit has the ability to control and display data.

CUTTING AUTOMATION
Cutting processes
Almost seventy years experience of cutting and responding to customers needs have resulted in an extensive range of products to meet prole cutting applications. Based around the four methods of oxy-fuel cutting, plasma cutting, laser cutting and water jet cutting, ESAB has developed a range of machines that deliver better cut quality, higher cutting speeds, lower operating costs and integration into automated production methods.
Oxy-Cutting
Oxycutting is the most commonly used process for thicker mild / low alloy steel and large dimension plates from 3 mm to 500 mm. ESAB has unrivalled experience in this process and new improvements are continuously introduced. Cooljet burner, cooling the cutting chamber while piercing and providing longer consumable life times Flame check control and monitoring giving all necessary information back to the numerical control on the status of the cutting process in real time. The new Cutting parameters option within the NCE automatically adjusts all of the parameters according to the plate thickness
Plasma
The plasma cutting process is suitable for conductive metals and produces high cutting speeds in metals up to 50 mm. With larger power sources of up to 1,000 amp, stainless steel and aluminium can be cut up to 150 mm thickness. For over 40 years ESAB has pioneered the plasma technology and now has many thousands of installations. The design philosophy is to go towards unmanned production with control of all cutting parameters from SDP les in the numerical control in order to: Provide operator independent cut quality Consistent high quality parts Reduce need for skilled labour Reduce set up time between different plates
Laser
The 3 kW, 4kW, 5 kW or 6 kW CO2 laser system is a very exible tool. The advantages are cutting up to 25 mm and marking with the same tool, high process speed, very small kerf, minimum heat distortion, very high accuracy.
88
CUTTING AUTOMATION
Marking
In combination with cutting processes ESAB has delivered many different types ofequipment to meet the varied applications for lines and text marking. The automation of these marking applications can give considerable benets and cost savings. Plasma marking - Line width from 0.6 mm up to 3 mm depending on the current. The biggest advantage is the marking speed up to 18 m/min, the immediate start and the permanent mark on the material. Inkjet marking - Provides the fastest marking solution and is able to mark line, text and bar codes in different fonts. Pen marking - Utilised on stainless steel surfaces for lettering and marking where the surface should remain undamaged. Punch marking - Offers an alternative marking solution when the plate must be drilled. This device is equipped with a pneumatic hammer unit.

Different conguration options providing you with an enormous exibility when selecting your individual cutting solution. m3plasma (200-400-600) Amp New dimensions in Plasma Cutting m3plasma represents ESABs exclusive system solution in a cutting range between 1 and 150 mm which accounts for your full-service approach. Supply reliability, precision as well as exibility and speed are your major targets. Solutions with a minimum administrative expense as regards conguration, operation and maintenance are decisive for your success. The low number of wear parts for the entire production range of m3plasma is unique. For instance, for material thicknesses from 2 to 40 mm no more than two nozzles and one electrode are needed. This equipment can also be used for plasma marking. Owing to its new torch design and the revolutionary gas control system, m3plasma achieves extraordinary cutting results throughout the wear parts service life. Plasma VBA-Wrist Our innovative VBA-Wrist is used for precise and variable bevel and prole cutting of three-dimensional parts such as pipes, dished boiler ends, prole sections and plates. A plasma torch is moved in ve axes by program-controlled AC motors. In combination with ESAB Vision control, extremely small bevel tolerances can be guaranteed. The function of VBA-Wrist follows a completely new, patented principle. In contrast to conventional systems, the tool center point (TCP) remains xed in space during swivelling. The compact VBA-Wrist combines high accuracy with high stiffness and adapts perfectly to every cutting task. The integration of VBA-Wrist into the CNC machine system allows for an uncomplicated control of bevel cutting. The cutting parameters are automatically set for various material thicknesses and bevel angles and thus signicantly facilitate programming.
Plasma VBA-Expert Pro
The plasma VBA-Expert Pro is used to accurately bevel cut plate material, and is fully programmable to cut parts that have both bevel and straight cuts. A single plasma torch is controlled via servo motors in three axes: tilt, rotation and vertical height. The system automatically switches between a high accuracy tactile height sensor and Arc Voltage Height Control to provide the most accurate bevel tolerance, while allowing for fully program controlled, bevel and straight cutting. The integration of ESABs Plasma Flow Control, CNC and bevel systems, allows unequalled control of bevel cutting. Cutting parameters such as speed, kerf and tilt angles are automatically adjusted for various material thickness and bevel angles, thus greatly simplifying part programming.
