GougeMaster - Robotic Plasma Gouging

In most metal fabrication shops, traditional air carbon-arc gouging (ArcAir™) has proven to be a good process / tool to work with, in welding applications, but it has its own disadvantages compared to plasma-arc gouging. AGT’s robotic plasma-arc gouging system uses a conventional plasma cutting system and has the following advantages, compared to air carbon-arc gouging system: Portable and flexible For many gouging applications Very quick setup Reduced noise and fume rates No risk of carbon inclusion No need for specialized labor Drastically reduced post-gouging cleanup time Extremely constant and high quality gouged grooves (joint preparation and/or back-gouging) Virtually unlimited control over torch angles and weave parameters Trouble-free operation Simple to adjust and easy to modify all process parameters Long lasting consumables Very simple to use. ESAB Logo Applications are diversified, such as: Back gouging Weld metal removal Overlay and hard facing removal Weld preparation Weld defects repairs Surface defects repairs Any classical known plasma application: standard plasma cutting, chamfering
