Why Orbital Welding

There are many reasons to utilize orbital welding for a project. Orbital welding is, by far, the cleanest and most efficient way to join tubes, flanges, elbows, joints, and more, regardless of the application or industry. The orbital welding machine adjusts the process by specifying the particular metal to be welded. This saves a considerable amount of lead time. Orbital welding produces repeated high purity and quality, consistent welds and is used often.

We Do It All

Our team excels at producing standard and complex pipe and tube spool configurations from extremely small connections with challenging weld angles to large spools that require extensive knowledge to overcome material deformation from the various weld locations. We’ve been asked to do it all, and we have delivered every single time. We regularly provide orbital welding services to produce extremely intricate skidded systems for use in the aerospace, semiconductor, and biopharmaceutical industries. Contact us now to get our orbital welding services.

High-Purity Welding Applications

  • Although high-purity welding is ideal for any industry, certain industries absolutely require high-purity welding due to the applications for which the metal tubing is being fabricated. The semiconductor, medical device, and aerospace industries are the most notable industries requiring high-purity welds..
  • High-purity welding is done in a cleanroom setting with a controlled environment, preventing fewer contaminants from entering the weld area. This is important because the gases or fluids going through the tubing must remain very clean.
  • With larger projects requiring multiple and identical welds, orbital welding can save you significant time in many aspects of the operation. The results are lower overhead costs, higher-quality welds, and shorter lead times.

Benefits of Orbital Welding

  • It’s Clean:It’s important to keep contaminants away from metal tubing during the welding process since impurities trapped inside could ruin an entire process, resulting in a significant waste of time and money. Orbital welding is typically performed in a cleanroom setting where tubes and fittings can be welded in a high-purity, contaminant-free environment.
  • It’s Efficient: Because the welds created are consistent and clean, the entire welding process becomes more efficient. Computerized orbital welding can make the process even more efficient, as the whole process can be scheduled ahead of time and documented. This decreases production time and overall costs.
  • It’s More Productive: Orbital welding is a much more productive use of labor, as the machinery does most of the work. Though there are upfront costs to acquire the appropriate equipment, it cuts down on labor requirements and lead time in the long run.
  • It Solves Unique Problems: Orbital welding for components is excellent, but for unique manufacturing situations, such as in cases where it is not feasible or practical to rotate a piece of tubing or pipe to be welded, orbital welding is the perfect solution. It may also be used in cases where welding must be performed in a tight space which wouldn’t be possible with manual welding.
  • It Shortens Lead Time for Large Projects: When multiple identical welds are being performed via a machine, you can test a sample weld rather than testing every weld. Since the machine is repeating the weld automatically, the integrity of the sample weld should hold true for all of the welds after that.
