Cruciform welder
2nd May 2017

East Lothian-based Lyten purchased a 1HDX Automatic Cruciform Welder from KOMBIMATEC after winning a big contract involving a large amount of crucifix welds.

Lyten’s Patrick Duignan explained: “It was the immediate availability that really sold it for us. And not only that, the 1HDX is the only identifiable UK supplied crucifix welder from a ‘known’ supplier - trust me, we did a lot of research.

Combine that with the solid customer service, delivery and installation and then there’s really no further encouragement needed.”

Speeding up fabrication times through its ability to weld crucifixes in one operation which also reduces manufacturing costs, other benefits the 1HDX offers include no need for V-notch cutting, reverse butt welding or insertion and withdrawal of reinforcement.

The welder is a solid steel construction with an overhead heater plate, a 2.0mm weld bead knife limitation for knife-off finish, adjustable stops to line up different transom widths and a two hand safety control.
