Tandem MIG™ 800 Amp Welding Torch

AUTOMATED SOLUTIONS

The Lincoln Tandem MIG 800 Amp Welding Torch is designed for medium duty robotic and

hard automation applications. The streamline configuration with extended gooseneck profile

is ideal for robotic applications that require reaching welding joints with restricted access.

The lightweight high strength machined aluminum torch construction provides precise wire

placement that can be used on 5 kg load capacity and larger robot arms. The torch features

a heavy-duty brass water-cooled gas nozzle, designed to minimize spatter build-up and

provide extended contact tip life.

Recommended Expendable Parts

• 800 amp rating for mixed gases, 60% duty cycle designed to

meet most light gauge steel applications.

• Wide range of useable wire diameters (.035-.062 inches)

provides versatility to fill a variety of application requirements.

• Cool operation for extended component life. Water-cooled

nozzle extracts heat from the contact tips.

• Lightweight construction allows use with most common robot

arms.

• Extended length goosenecks provide access to tight weld joint

locations.

• 22 degree goosenecks provide positive wire contact at the

contact tip.

• Two process derived contact tip spacing and angularity options.

• Large contact tip to diffuser seating area for cooler contact tip

operation.

• Separate routing of air blast hose provides a nozzle cleaning

option without compromising shielding gas supply lines.

SYSTEM RECOMMENDATIONS The M17809 Collision Sensor is recommended when using robotic arms that are not supported with collision sensing software and for fixed torch mounting associated with hard automation applications. Welding Torch Protection: When mounted on a Fanuc Robot, the S22693-172 Rigid Mounting Bracket is used along with Fanuc Collision Guard software. The rigid torch mounting and software combination assures repeatable torch placement and operator safety.

EXPENDABLE REPLACEMENT PARTS Taper Lock Diffuser and Contact Tip Diffuser and contact tips: High current capacity taper lock contact tips and diffuser As standard, the Tandem MIG 800 Amp Welding Torch is supplied with Taper Lock Diffusers (S22693-207) and Taper Lock Contact Tips. Diffusers are designed to provide a larger seating surface for the contact tips. The enlarged seating surface provides better current carrying capacity over conventional diffuser designs.
