Description
PipeRunner® orbital welding – a revolutionary orbital welding system.
State-of-the-art programmable mechanized MIG/MAG orbital system for the circumferential welding of pipelines and process pipes.
With Böhler Welding’s pipeRunner® in combination with diamondspark core wires for pipeline welding, perfect circumferential welds can be achieved at the pipeline site thanks to the unique material properties for filler and overlay layers.
User benefit: pipeRunner® is designed for vertical girth welding with core wires.
One of the lightest systems on the market makes it easy to operate All components are top-of-the-line products designed in Germany Very easy to maneuver, as the remote control has all functions at your fingertips Stress-free transportation thanks to the high-quality box and carrying case No beveling machine and internal clamping required For high-strength pipeline steels, but also ideal for pipes and high-alloyed plated pipes The pipeRunner® provides excellent results for welding filler and casing layers uphill with our diamondspark range of core wires designed specifically for pipelines.
The pipeRunner® welder offers significant productivity improvements with a total time savings (including line lay) of 66% compared to full cellulose SMAW welding procedures.
This makes the pipeRunner® an ideal solution for companies looking to increase productivity and automate the process on the jobsite. Intelligent, intuitive and logical layout of all controls (e.g. torch positioner, spool holder, release lever, etc.) Fully integrated electronics Lightweight design for easy operation Top quality brushless DC electric motor The system is modular and expandable Designed for FCAW welding vertically upwards, but also for GMAW welding vertically downwards (e.g. ridge stitch) the pipeRunner® can be used CW clockwise and CCW counterclockwise Programming is simple The software is already included and can run on any PC, optionally on a rugged tablet Up to 11 different runs can be scheduled Metric and imperial units Ergonomics The aluminum space frame with 4 handles makes the pipeRunner easy to use The wire feeder can be installed opposite the frame as a built-in pedestal Horizontal torch movement 65 mm (2.56 inches) Vertical torch movement 30 mm Oscillation width 0-60 mm (0-2.36 inches) Torch head tilt ± 25 Oscillation speed 0-350 cm/min (0-138 inches/min) Feed speed 0-1.6 m/min (0-63 inches/min) Wire diameter 1,0-1.6 mm Oscillation welding time individually adjustable Weight 14 kg without spool Dimensions 480x400x260 mm (19x16x10 inches) Maximum wire feed speed 19 m/min (75 inches/min) Maximum welding current 300 A/100% (CO2) Remote control with all functions integrated: Welding programs Torch movements Oscillation width Wire feed speed Travel speed Test functions. Made of special austenitic stainless steel for springs, rolled and pressed to achieve nominal diameter and proper roundness with maximum precision, their service life is 2-3 times longer than conventional ties.
Spring-loaded bumpers and a locking lever system simultaneously ensure secure placement and compensate for pipe ovalization.
Böhler Welding pipeRunner® positioning ties are state-of-the-art in terms of production technology and precision.
High-quality box for transport and storage Pneumatic transport clamping screw As the perfect complement to the pipeRunner®, the Terra 400 PRM is a reliable and robust inverter MIG/MAG and MMA current source that guarantees quality and productivity.
The Terra 400 PRM pipeline version is a robust and reliable next-generation three-phase inverter current source.
To meet the needs of orbital welding of pipelines, as well as performing border and hot stitch with manual or semi-automatic welding, the Terra 400 PRM is equipped with a special display to manage all welding processes and a special RC 100 MP remote control specifically designed for pipeline work.
