BP Automation’s Straight Pipe Cladding Machines

When you invest in BP Automation, you’re not just getting machines—you’re getting comprehensive solutions. Our in-house team of engineers, technicians, and machinists collaborates with you to transform your manufacturing challenges into high-performance automated systems. Here’s a closer look at what sets our Straight Pipe Cladding Machines apart:

Advanced Features for Optimal Performance

1. Internal Welding Torches

Our machines come equipped with four internal welding torches, allowing for efficient and precise welding. Whether you need independent or simultaneous welding in one direction, our machines ensure exact weld bead spacing to maintain full weld coverage.

2. Fully Automated HMI Control

Eliminate operator error with our fully automated Human-Machine Interface (HMI) control system. This feature ensures seamless operation and high-quality output every time.

3. Continuous Spiral Bead and Automatic Current Control

The continuous spiral bead and automatic current control adapt to surface irregularities, ensuring consistent and reliable welding performance.

Versatile Pipe Handling Capabilities

Our Straight Pipe Cladding Machine is designed to handle a wide range of pipe sizes, from 8-inch to 48-inch diameters. It also features our patented single-pipe or dual-pipe function, allowing for one pipe up to 40 feet or two 20-foot pipes to be welded simultaneously. This versatility ensures that we can meet diverse manufacturing needs.

Efficient Cooling and Safe Operation

1. Pipe Water-Cooling Feature

Maintain the proper temperature throughout the cladding process with our pipe water-cooling feature, which allows for continuous operation without stopping.

2. Safety Compliance

Our machines are built with safeguarding features that meet CSA standards, promoting a safe work environment for your operators.

Quick Setup and Low Maintenance

Our Straight Pipe Cladding Machines offer quick setup times and low maintenance requirements, saving you valuable time and resources. They are fully programmable, allowing you to adjust torch height, wire speed, current, voltage, and travel speed to match your specific needs. With a weld surface speed of 50 to 60 inches per minute, our machines ensure efficient production.

Enhanced Automation for Seamless Operations

Automatic current controls enable seamless welding of reducers and adapters, including eccentric reducers, in one smooth motion. This combination of advanced features allows us to achieve over a 90% weld arc on time. Additionally, our machines automatically detect if the wire runs out or if any issues arise, stopping the process to prevent errors and ensure consistent quality.

With 27 years of experience, BP Automation has the expertise to customize machines to meet the specific requirements of any pipe cladding job.
