Camfil APC’s Gold Series X-Flo (GSX) system collects and contains fumes generated by plasma cutting tables. The system is used in conjunction with a downdraft table to capture fumes at their source. It effectively processes fumes while maintaining a low pressure drop. The system is designed to pulse-clean more effectively to extend filter life, while… Continued

Hexagon Mfg. Intelligence launched a new wireless, inline gap and flush measuring system. The NextSense Calipri C15 non-contact measurement system uses a sensing technique to measure gap and flush, seal gap and feature lines throughout the manufacturing process. The system can be configured for 360-degree or linear measurement, making it suitable for car body, inline and final assembly… Continued

Optrel’s new crystal2.0 e3000 PAPR system consists of a crystal2.0 welding helmet and e3000 PAPR-powered air purifying respirator. The system provides active eye protection, visual clarity and safety against airborne particulates for workers during welding or grinding operations. The NIOSH-approved system protects welders from respiratory particulates including smoke, aerosol and dust. It delivers even air distribution of… Continued

Tweco, an ESAB brand, introduced the Fusion Pro 450, a water-cooled MIG gun designed for running wires from 0.035-in. to 1/16-in. diameter in medium to heavy-duty industrial fabrication, maintenance and repair applications. Using mixed gas, the gun is rated at 450 amps at 100 percent duty cycle; with CO2 shielding gas, it is rated at… Continued

Pferd Inc. released a series of 100 percent stainless steel power brushes designated Inox-Total. All components of the brush are produced from 302 stainless steel, making them suitable for environments highly sensitive to contamination, such as the nuclear power and pharmaceutical industries. The brushes are available in a 2-in. stem-mounted crimped wheel, 2-in. stem-mounted knot… Continued

Arc Specialties Inc. offers the Artificial Intelligence Pipe Welding System to carry out repeatable full penetration pipe welds. The system incorporates a six-axis UR5 collaborative robot arm from Universal Robots. The system pre-scans the root opening (gap) using a 2-D laser, then uses the data to generate the robot path and welding parameters. Gap variations… Continued

The Lincoln Electric Co.’s Flextec 500X multi-process welder is for heavy-duty indoor and outdoor applications and supports multiple weld processes including GMAW, GTAW, SMAW, FCAW and CAC-A. Basic pulse MIG capability is standard, including weld modes for carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and metal-cored electrodes, with stick welding for cellulosic and low-hydrogen electrodes. It is enabled… Continued

Wire Wizard’s PowerBall MIG guns now ships with a new two-piece nozzle design. The gun’s design provides a higher amperage output than traditional air-cooled MIG welding guns, resulting in a lighter weight, energy-efficient torch. Improved conductivity also means less heat build-up in the gun, which reduces spatter build-up on the contact tip and nozzle and reduces burnback.… Continued

Miller Electric Mfg. LLC announced the winner of the “Who’s Building You?” contest. Daymon Gast, a certified welding instructor and SkillsUSA advisor at Lincoln-Way Central High School in New Lenox, Ill., won the final public vote. Gast and Codey Underwood, a former student and welder who nominated him, will receive Miller prizes valued at more… Continued
