Flexible Welding Enclosures® for Additive Manufacturing

Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® have a range of standard and special Flexible Welding Enclosures suitable for a variety of applications including Additive Manufacturing. Here is one of HFT®'s Enclosures at Fabtech 2018, with a robot inside.

Flexible Welding Enclosures®

The Argweld® range of Flexible Welding Enclosures® has been designed for applications where a rigid chamber may not be economically viable or where space may be at a premium, they are low cost, suitable for welding titanium, zirconium, other reactive metals and for WAAM Additive Manufacturing. Standard models and Custom Made Specials are designed and […]

Argweld Weld Trailing Shields®

To avoid metallurgical defects, to eliminate oxidation and discolouration and to save expensive cleaning costs on stainless steel and titanium sheet metal welding, Argweld Weld Trailing Shields® are available. They provide additional inert gas coverage during welding to avoid metallurgical defects and to prevent oxidation, which can lead to loss of corrosion resistance and to […]

Weld Backing Tape 3

Where large volumes are filled with expensive inert gas to prevent oxidised welds, the use Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ allows welders to complete the work quickly without the cost of inert gas and lengthy waiting times for purging. Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ and Argweld Weld Purge Tape™ are available for immediate delivery

Weld Backing Tape 2

Because weld roots are flat and clean when using Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™, post weld dressing and cleaning costs are dramatically reduced. The cost of Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ is paid for on each weld as well as making additional cost savings through increased welding speed and reduced weld cleaning.

Weld Backing Tape 1

Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ allows faster welding speeds and greater production rates while producing smooth profile, flat, clean weld underbeads. Where operators currently need to carry out double sided welding, with the use of Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™, welders can now make welds from one side only. This eliminates the need for expensive weld preparations […]

Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ Demonstration

Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ allows faster welding speeds and greater production rates. Argweld® Weld Backing Tape™ welds joints from one side only, eliminating the need for double sided welding.

Argweld® Weld Backing Tape®

Back Purging is the process of protecting and shielding the back side or under side of the weld during welding to prevent oxidation. Back Purging with fiberglass Weld Backing Tape® supports weld roots and can prevent oxidation, sugaring, achieving clean, oxide free welds.

Argweld® Weld Purge Film®

The only ready to go kit of water-soluble Weld Purge Film® available. Used for closing welds and small diameter tube blocking where water is used afterwards for washing out lines. Argweld® Weld Purge Film® is water-soluble down to molecular level, leaving no fibres or pulp behind to clog up filters and stop flow. Film barriers […]

Weld Purge Film®

The Argweld® Weld Purge Film® and Argweld® Super Weld Purge Adhesive® material makes dams which produce an impenetrable purge barrier but which can easily be washed away when hydrostatically testing the pipe or just by normal wash out.
