Welder with clamps
RITMO’S Delta 1600 HDR is a welding machine with
hydraulic motion and a working range from 800 to 1,600mm.
The machine was recently used at a job site in Bahrain to
weld several kilometres of PE100 Ø 1,200mm SDR 26 to be
used for carrying water from the sea to be desalinated.
The welding machine features hydraulic clamps for faster
operation. In just a few minutes all the clamps are open wide
without any support from other mechanical devices. The
hydraulic clamps provide another benefit in terms of grip on
the pipes: avoiding slip during the pressure phase, which
can occur with insufficient manual fastening.
The high temperatures at the job site do not affect the
welding machine, as it is equipped with a heat exchanger for
the hydraulic circuit. Welds are certified by ‘The Inspector’,
Ritmo’s data-logger, which records and monitors all of the
Delta 1600’s workflow. The device relies on an internal
memory of 1,000 cycles and a GPS system.
