0461233881 - ESAB A2 Multitrac SAW Tractor with PEK Controller and Twin Wire Kit

High-Performance Submerged Arc Automation

The ESAB A2 Multitrac SAW Twin PEK is a premier solution for automated welding applications requiring high deposition rates and superior weld quality. As a robust welding tractor, the A2 Multitrac has established itself as a standard in the industry for heavy fabrication, shipbuilding, and structural steel work. This specific configuration utilizes the Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) process paired with a Twin wire setup, which effectively doubles the electrode engagement area, allowing for significantly faster travel speeds and increased metal deposition compared to single-wire systems.

At the heart of this system is the PEK process controller. The PEK is a sophisticated interface that provides the operator with precise control over welding parameters, including voltage, current, and travel speed. Its digital feedback system ensures that the preset values are maintained throughout the weld, resulting in consistent, high-quality beads that meet stringent code requirements. The controller also supports pre-programmed weld data, reducing setup time for recurring jobs and ensuring repeatability across shifts.

The tractor itself is designed for mobility and stability. Featuring a four-wheel drive system with feedback control, the A2 Multitrac maintains a constant travel speed even on inclined surfaces or uneven workpieces. This stability is crucial for SAW, where consistent heat input and flux coverage are necessary to prevent defects. The compact design allows the unit to be easily moved from one joint to another, making it ideal for environments where large components are fabricated but gantry systems are not feasible.

Furthermore, the modular design of the A2 Multitrac allows for flexibility. While this unit comes configured for Twin SAW, the platform is versatile enough to be adapted for other processes or configurations if production needs change. The heavy-duty construction ensures longevity in harsh industrial environments, resisting wear from abrasive flux and heavy usage. By integrating the A2 Multitrac SAW Twin PEK into your production line, you are investing in a machine that delivers efficiency, reliability, and top-tier welding performance.
