RWPP200-200-31-FM-WE 200t Conventional Welding Rotator Set
The Redrock 200t Conventional Welding Rotator Set. Engineered for the most demanding heavy-duty fabrication projects, this high-capacity turning roll system is the essential equipment for achieving flawless, automated circumferential welding on large, cylindrical work-pieces such as pressure vessels, wind tower production, storage tanks, and large-diameter piping.
This robust set comprises one powerful drive unit and one heavy-duty idler unit, providing a massive 200-ton total rotation capacity to handle vessels up to 7440 mm in diameter. The system uses premium, durable Polyurethane tyres (Ø660 mm x 550 mm, Shore ‘A’ 90-95) which deliver superior grip, prevent work-piece marking, and ensure smooth, consistent rotation across the full range of operational loads.
Precision control is guaranteed by the drive system, which allows for fully variable roller speeds from an ultra-slow 186 mm/min up to 1860 mm/min (at 5 to 50Hz). This meticulous speed control is crucial for maintaining optimal weld quality during critical processes.
Features
- Massive Structural Capacity: Engineered to handle a maximum total weight of 200 Metric Tonnes (MT).
- Load Distribution: Split equally between the two included units, providing a structural capacity of 100 MT for the powered drive bed and 100 MT for the passive idler bed.
- Exceptional Diameter Span: Highly versatile bracket configurations accommodate vessel diameters ranging from a minimum of Φ1,540 mm up to a maximum of Φ7,440 mm.
- Synchronised Dual-Drive System: Features an all-wheel synchronous drive powered by dual, fully enclosed AC gear motors. This design provides independent torque directly to the driving wheels, eliminating the need for mechanical torque bars
- High-Traction Wheels: Utilises premium, replaceable vulcanised Polyurethane (PU) tyres bonded directly onto solid cast-steel drums. This design protects work-pieces from marking, dampens structural shock loads, and ensures zero wheel slippage under full 100-tonne point loads.
- Rigid Base Frame: Fabricated entirely from 100% heavy structural steel. The base is surface-treated via grit-blasting to an SA 2.5 standard, followed by two protective coats of zinc phosphate and a high-durability finish coat to resist harsh welding shop environments.
- Manual Wheel Centre Realignment: Operates via manually aligned wheel brackets bolted into fixed positioning slots. This fixed-centre layout offers unparalleled lateral stability and allows for lower vessel seating heights compared to self-aligning alternatives
- Inverter Speed Tuning: Driven by variable-frequency AC inverter controls with integrated fan cooling for smooth, continuous, step-less speed adjustment across standard frequency ranges.
- Heavy Industrial Pendant: Equipped with a 10-metre heavy-duty cable coupled to a low-voltage hand-held control pendant.
- Intuitive Operator Commands: Features industrial-grade push buttons for Forward, Reverse, and Stop, an integrated precision potentiometer for real-time welding speed variation, and a distinct, latching Emergency Stop button.
