Low profile carriage weld head for tube and pipe
The POLYCAR 30 is a compact, open-type carriage welding head engineered for high-quality circumferential welding of tubes and pipes. Its low-profile configuration allows it to operate efficiently in areas with reduced radial clearance, while its automated welding functions replicate the precision and repeatability of an expert welder. Built for demanding shop environments and high duty cycles, it delivers reliable welds across a wide range of industrial applications.
The POLYCAR 30 offers exceptional accessibility thanks to its low-profile design, making it ideal for welding in tight or restricted spaces. Its quick-release mechanism allows the head to be mounted or removed from the guide ring in under a minute, significantly reducing setup time. Handling is simplified through user-friendly adjustments that make job changeovers fast and efficient.
The system delivers premium TIG weld quality on all weldable materials—including aluminum when paired with DC-Helium—ensuring both versatility and superior results. The use of high-temperature materials and a closed-loop water-cooled design enables continuous high-duty operation without overheating. An extra-large ceramic nozzle with an integrated gas lens provides excellent shielding gas coverage, enhancing weld consistency. Together, these features create a stable welding environment that maintains uniform control over welding speed and wire feed throughout the process.
