Shear & end welder is becoming an essential equipment in tube mill line or other coil processing line. Shear & end welder will greatly reduce scrap, tooling damage, downtime and safety hazards. Another big benefit for utilizing shear & end welder is the reduction of time spent during the coil change.

TGMCO designs and manufactures stationary shear end welder machine that comes in various design from semi-automatic to fully automatic. The operation starts by jogging the tail end into shearing position. Then the strip is edge guided automatically or manually for centering adjustment. The tail end is then clamped and sheared. The lead end of the new coil is fed into position, edge guided, clamped and sheared. The sheared scrap can be removed manually or automatically. After shear process is done, the weld torch is initiated, joining the two coils end together. After welding, the machine is reset for the next work cycle. TIG or MIG weld process is applied that have proven to be the best and most cost-effective welding for tube making industry. The automatically driven weld torch allows for a smooth and consistent weld bead across the seam of material.
