Weld overlay cladding deposits a layer of Corrosion Resistant Alloy (CRA) to areas at risk of corrosion and wear. Typical applications include connectors, ring grooves, elbows, flanges, pipes, spools and valves. TPS have developed the compact SCU cladding station, which contains a turnkey, fully automated, hot wire TIG weld overlay system, in one complete, Self Contained Unit (SCU).
The TPS SCU is a fully programmable, PLC controlled, cladding system, that is capable of applying high quality weld overlay on internal and external components, simply and easily. Our industry leading user friendly interface does not require any previous computer knowlege. A simple touch screen selects and controls all weld and AVC parameters, data documentation and bore-to-bore programming.
TPS were the first to introduce a servocontrolled wire feed system, utilising the highest quality European components. This ensures precise wire delivery with minimum slippage resulting in an even thickness of cladding
