The two flanges will be placed on the conveyor section at opposite ends of web. The three pieces are positioned against a retractable stopping device and hydraulically clamped to their respective positions. The operator manually tack-welds them together. The clamps are released and the tack-welded beam can be sent to the welder. After setting up the clamp positions on the first beam, an operator controls material movement via the control panel. This is the same procedure for all subsequent beams.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Company provides modular Fusion Arc welding machines, in-house training classes and an extensive inventory of consumables. Certified welding and application engineers teach training classes.
This allows you to produce custom beams with minimal delay for changing beam shapes or sizes. Beam Layout Welding allows you to increase your productivity on both straight beams as well as tapered beams. The system automatically welds the beam's two flanges together at once. This gives you the penetration you need up to 1/2" web and 1 1/2" flange in one operation. The PHI system produces an inter-flange fillet. Welds meet all construction codes and are uniform.

A typical Beam Layout welding system has 18 conveyor segments. Six of the sections are motorized, and drive the rollers with sprockets. Ten are motorized, and connected by chains to adjoining motorized sections. Two are inactive.
Gulf States Saw & Machine Company was established in Tampa, FL in 1984. Its mission is to help clients get the best products in the metal cutting sector. CMT's operations expanded to serve the whole south, with additional showrooms opening in Atlanta, GA and Dallas TX. Capital's presence can now be felt in 12 states, including Florida, South Carolina. Virginia, Mississippi. Tennessee. Texas. Georgia. North Carolina. Alabama. Louisiana. Oklahoma.
A welded beam consists of three individual sections of steel – a web, a top flange and a bottom flange. These segments are merged together with deep fillet welds to create an incredibly robust building material.
