Description

railRunner®
Ensures long-lasting welding with a user-friendly, durable and flexible rail-mounted welding carriage that integrates perfectly with any MIG-MAG welding equipment from Böhler Welding.
The railRunner is able to show its strengths in any welding position. With a programmable oscillator and a unique user interface, all controls are at your fingertips. The perfect match of Böhler welding equipment and consumables takes productivity to the next level with the new railRunner.
All kinds of high-strength welds, whether fillet, butt or lap, can be profitably welded with this solution. It is possible to weld in any position, including frontal, vertical and overhead, on straight and curved surfaces. Applications can be found in many industrial segments, from beams and frames to tanks and other massive industrial components. The perfect weld seam is achieved with Böhler’s special arc welding programs, and productivity is further enhanced with special Böhler Welding processes such as rapiDeep and QuickPulse.
