Spiral Tube Winding and Welding System

A manufacturer of high-pressure hydraulic filters needed to improve the process for manufacturing center cores. The current process was to start with welded tubing and drill a large pattern of holes to permit flow into the center of the tube. After the drilling operation the I.D. of the tube required honing to remove any chips created by the drilling operation.

Precision Mesh Pack Seam Welder

A manufacturer of hydraulic filters (used primarily in aerospace applications) required a precision system to seam weld stainless steel mesh filters ranging from 2″ to 36″ in length. Creative Automation designed and manufactured an automatic seam welder with a specially designed clamping fixture with replaceable copper jaws to accommodate the wide range of filter sizes.
