Orbimatic have launched the WIG 10/175 Tungsten Electrode grinder to compliment their range of high quality orbital welding equipment. It is essential to use high quality tungsten electrodes which have been ground to a precise profile for all precision and orbital welding applications.
The WIG 10/175 provides and accurate grind angle with a clearly scaled setting mechanism.
The tungsten electrode is secured in a robust collet and then loaded into the main body of the grinder. The electrode is then introduced to the diamond impregnated grinding wheel by means of a precision slide. The collet is rotated as it is introduced to the grinding wheel to give a consistent grind profile. The resin bonded diamond impregnated grinding wheel gives a polished finish to the tungsten electrode which gives a longer life and improved arc striking. The WIG 10/175 can be supplied to work from either a 115v or 230v input supply. The unit can also be supplied with a dust extraction unit for the removal of metal particles from the operators working area.
