Orbitalum Orbital Welders

Orbitalum provides a range of machines including tube facing and squaring machines, pipe and tube saws, orbital welders, and accessories like saw blades and tool bits​.

Some of the most popular Orbitalum weld preperation and welding machine models include:

• GF4 pipe cutting and bevelling machine
• GFX 3.0 pipe cutting and bevelling machine
• RPG 4.5 tube squarer
• RA4 pipe cutter
• 165CB orbital welder

Orbital welding is an automated welding process used for precise, consistent joining of pipes and tubes. It involves a computer-controlled power source that moves the welding torch around the workpiece to ensure uniform welds​.

Orbitalum machines are utilised in various industries such as aerospace, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, semiconductor manufacturing, and high-purity process piping​.

Orbitalum machines can handle materials like stainless steel, unalloyed and low-alloyed steels, aluminium, titanium, and other metals requiring high-precision machining​.

These machines provide high-quality, burr-free, and square finishes, essential for defect-free orbital fusion welding. They offer features like quick clamping systems, cordless options for portability, and precision cutting tools​. 

The main limitations include the high cost of equipment, complexity and time required for setup, challenges in using welding heads in tight spaces, and the need for adequate training for operators​. However once these limitations have been addressed, the value of this equipment is unquestionable for the right applications.
