OVERVIEW

Precision Positioning for Mechanized Welding

The Lincoln Electric CS450 15 X 15 Cross Slide Assembly (K52015-1515) is an essential component for industrial hard automation and mechanized welding systems. Designed to provide robust and accurate positioning of the welding head, this assembly features a generous 15-inch stroke on both the vertical and horizontal axes. This extended range of motion allows operators and automated systems to adjust the torch position with high precision, accommodating variations in joint fit-up and part geometry without interrupting the arc.

In heavy industrial applications, such as beam fabrication, pipe welding, or tank manufacturing, maintaining the correct contact tip-to-work distance (CTWD) and seam tracking is critical for weld quality. The CS450 is engineered to handle the weight of heavy-duty submerged arc or MIG welding heads, ensuring stability and minimizing vibration during operation. Its rugged construction is built to withstand the harsh conditions of a welding environment, including exposure to heat, dust, and spatter.

Integrating the CS450 into your welding column and boom or side-beam carriage setup enhances process control. Whether used with tactile seam trackers or vision systems, the smooth motion of the cross slide ensures that the arc remains precisely where it needs to be. This assembly is a testament to Lincoln Electric's commitment to providing durable, high-performance solutions for the automation sector.

Key Benefits for Automation

  • Extended Reach: The 15x15 configuration offers ample adjustment room for complex weldments.
