OVERVIEW

Enhance Your Welding Automation with ESAB

The ESAB Flexible Rail with Magnets is an essential accessory for professional welders utilizing mechanization systems like the ESAB Railtrac. Designed to bring precision and consistency to your welding projects, this 2.5-meter guide rail offers the versatility needed to tackle complex geometries.

Unlike rigid tracks that limit you to flat, linear applications, this flexible rail can be bent to conform to curved surfaces, making it indispensable for industries such as shipbuilding, tank fabrication, and pipe welding. The integrated magnets provide a powerful grip on steel surfaces, allowing for rapid setup and teardown without the need for cumbersome mechanical clamps or tack welding fixtures.

By providing a smooth, stable path for your welding tractor, this rail ensures consistent travel speeds and torch positioning, resulting in superior weld quality and reduced rework. Whether you are performing long longitudinal seams or circumferential welds on large vessels, the ESAB Flexible Rail is the key to unlocking maximum productivity from your automation equipment.

Key Benefits

  • Versatility: Easily adapts to both flat and curved workpieces.
  • Efficiency: Magnetic mounting significantly cuts down preparation time.
  • Scalability: Connect multiple rails to cover any required distance.

FAQ

The rail is 2.5 meters (approximately 8.2 feet) long.

It uses integrated high-strength magnets to attach securely to ferromagnetic surfaces like steel.

The magnets will not adhere to non-ferromagnetic materials like aluminum or austenitic stainless steel. For these materials, a vacuum mounting system or mechanical clamping would be required (check specific system options).

Yes, it is designed to flex and conform to curved surfaces such as tanks and large pipes.

Yes, the rails are designed to be joined end-to-end to create a longer continuous track for extended welds.

It is designed for ESAB mechanization systems, particularly the Railtrac series of welding tractors.

No, this is the guide rail accessory only. The Railtrac tractor is sold separately.

Using a track system ensures consistent travel speed and torch distance, leading to higher quality welds and reduced operator fatigue compared to manual welding.
