Beam Layout Welding Keyhole Formation

Stainless Steel




These may seem very similar but when you look at all of them, they are vastly different. Beam layout welding beams are typically heavier and denser then I beams. This means the former can absorb and take up more force.

Think again if you believed that an I beam was the same as an h beam. It's all explained below. For a better understanding of the importance and benefits of I beams imagine a single plywood piece. Place the plywood just beyond the edge, so its longitudinal ends don't touch.

On the opposite ends of the web, the two flanges are placed on a conveyor section. They are then rotated to the vertical position and held in place by magnetic guide rollers. The three pieces are moved against a retractable stop, and hydraulically clamped in the correct relative positions. They are manually joined by the operator. The clamps are removed and the tack-welded beam sent to the welder. After setting the clamp positions for the first beam is done, the operator can control material movement using the control panel for any subsequent beams of the same dimensions.

Beam Layout Welding enables you to join web sections by welding a 100% seam. You can also make long webs using short sections. The pieces to be joined will be aligned with an edge guide. They will then be clamped in place using air cylinders. The joint is sealed by the copper back-up plate. The welding head moves along a joint and welds it with a single-wire submerged arc.

The "IN" conveyor moves the beam from the beginning position to the destination. Next, the operator selects one the preset welding program (welding speed or wire speed) and presses "START". The total sequence of actions, including the movement of beam with welding speed, positioning the welding head, start and stop the welding process for stationery and moveable side, activation copper back up assemblies and pressure regulators, and the STOP operation, will all be done automatically.

Narrow Weld





Although they may look similar, if you really think about it, they are very different. Beam layout welding is usually heavier than I beams and more dense. This is because the beam layout welding can absorb and take in more force.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
