Fan Impeller and Volute Welding Machines: Robot Cells and Double-Torch Volute Welder
Robot cells for centrifugal and axial impellers, and a double-torch welder for fan volutes
Overview
What it does
For fan makers, three machines cover the main welds. The centrifugal impeller cell has a welding robot and a tilting positioner that turns the impeller so each blade-to-plate seam is welded in position. It takes carbon steel impellers from 300 to 1600 mm in diameter, 120 to 1200 mm high, blades 1.5 to 6 mm thick and up to 600 kg.
The axial impeller cell welds the blades of axial fan impellers from size 3 to size 16. It corrects for small blade position errors on its own, so the robot follows the real blade rather than the nominal one.
The volute welder welds the scroll casing of centrifugal fans with two torches. You enter the largest and smallest radius, straight length and width; a mechanical follower keeps the torch on the seam, and a lifting table holds the part while the clamps are released for loading.

Frequently asked questions
About this machine
Can the robot weld both centrifugal and axial impellers?
There are two cells: one for centrifugal impellers from 300 to 1600 mm, one for axial impellers from size 3 to 16. Tell us your range and we propose the right cell or both.
How is the volute welder set up?
Enter the largest and smallest radius, straight length and width. There is no separate programming step.
What material can the impeller cell weld?
Carbon steel, by gas-shielded welding. Ask us if you build in stainless or aluminium.
What lead time and warranty apply?
Lead time and warranty for this machine are confirmed in the quotation for your configuration.
Is the machine CE marked?
CE marking is confirmed at quotation. Tell us the destination country and we check what documents come with the machine.
