Beam Layout Welding Fabrication

Beam Layout Welding Training


The tacking fixture allows you to attach the beam to the Main Welder. The web and flanges can be brought from the seam-welder and flange storage shelves respectively. Once they are there, they are positioned at the tacking fixture before being tacked to the beam's leading edge. Operators or automatic PHI's flange loading Gantry can load the flanges onto the conveyors manually.




Traditional fitting requires an experienced fitter who can read and understand the assembly drawings, use the measuring tape and mark where the beam is. A laser projection system can project all information directly onto a beam, so an operator, who has limited training, can align and tack weld the connection with that line.

The "IN" conveyor moves the beam from the beginning position to the destination. Next, the operator selects one the preset welding program (welding speed or wire speed) and presses "START". The total sequence of actions, including the movement of beam with welding speed, positioning the welding head, start and stop the welding process for stationery and moveable side, activation copper back up assemblies and pressure regulators, and the STOP operation, will all be done automatically.

H beams are not as widely used as I beams. So H beams are not necessarily better or more cost-effective than the I beams. In case you didn't know, an H beam welding device is composed of many weldheads stacked up next to each another.

Now you can make custom beams without any delays. Beam Layout Welding can increase productivity in your business, both for straight beams and tapered beams. The beam layout welding automatically welds both of the beam's end flanges simultaneously, providing the penetration required on up to 1/2" web and 1 1/2" flange. It does this by using one pass from each side. The PHI system produces fillet welding between the web & flange. Construction codes require uniform welding.

Beam Layout Welding By Hand


The WS-72 Web seamer station comes equipped with a Lincoln Power Wave AC/DC Welder and Max-Sa Controls. The WS-72 uses unique magnets to pull the web plates towards the copper back-up bars. The copper back-up bar has a small flux groove, and is attached to an aluminum sub-bar that is water-cooled.

Frequently Asked Questions

A welded beam consists of three individual sections of steel – a web, a top flange and a bottom flange. These segments are merged together with deep fillet welds to create an incredibly robust building material.
