• Pipe fitting industry: Welding of elbows, tees, reducers, flanges, pipe ends and other components

• Pressure vessel industry: Overlay welding of vessel heads, cylinder bodies, manholes and other key parts

• Oil & gas industry: Welding of downhole tools, wellheads, pipelines and other corrosion-prone components

• Other fields: Nuclear power equipment, marine engineering components, chemical reaction kettle linings and other high-demand welding scenarios

Pain Points & Product Solutions

We deeply understand the difficulties and troubles that customers face in the welding process. The FIT-ETR series is developed to solve these core problems one by one:

• Pain Point 1: Low welding precision, easy to have defects such as uneven welds and excessive dilution rate
  Solution: Equipped with infinite rotation welding head and arc voltage automatic tracking function (±0.2V), which ensures stable welding trajectory and uniform weld formation. The advanced pulse TIG hot wire filling process controls the dilution rate below 5%, avoiding defects such as porosity, cracks and uneven thickness, and ensuring the consistency of welding quality.

• Pain Point 2: Complex workpieces are difficult to position, time-consuming and labor-intensive for manual alignment
  Solution: Adopt Fitco i-CLAD 300 intelligent control system with automatic centering function. It can quickly and accurately locate the welding position without complicated manual adjustment, greatly reducing the time for workpiece alignment and debugging, improving work efficiency and reducing labor costs.

• Pain Point 3: Large and heavy workpieces are inconvenient to process, and the equipment occupies a large space
  Solution: The product adopts a compact design, which saves workshop space and is easy to install and debug. It supports the welding of large-diameter workpieces (Φ38~Φ3000mm for E model, Φ50~Φ2500mm for F model) and can bear heavy-duty components, effectively solving the problem of difficult processing of large and heavy workpieces.

• Pain Point 4: Poor adaptability to multi-shape workpieces, unable to meet diversified welding needs
  Solution: The infinite rotation welding head can flexibly adapt to the welding of inner/outer walls, flat surfaces, curved surfaces and other multi-shape workpieces. Optional 90° intersecting holes welding (for pipe fittings and tees) and sphere hole avoidance (for pressure vessel heads) functions, fully meeting the diversified welding needs of different industries.

• Pain Point 5: Low welding efficiency, high rework rate, and increased production costs
  Solution: The pulse TIG hot wire filling process has high welding efficiency, with a single-layer weld thickness of 1~3mm. The product meets ASTM E165 and ASTM V standards, and the first-pass yield is as high as 98%, which greatly reduces the rework rate and saves material and time costs for customers.

• Pain Point 6: Unstable equipment operation under harsh working conditions, frequent failures
  Solution: The equipment is equipped with high-quality core components (Rockwell PLC, EWM/TETRIX power supply, Pro-face HMI) and a forced water cooling system. It has complete fault protection functions and can operate stably for 24 hours under harsh conditions such as high temperature, low temperature and heavy dust, reducing the risk of equipment failure and ensuring continuous production.
