VADER

The Vader is our premier series CNC submerged arc welding machine designed for versatility and longevity. Its modular structure is highly customizable to accomodate a variety of welding applications and provides ultimate expandability. It supports 3-axis motion with traverse speeds up to 1,000 IPM and a lifter stroke up to 30". Our robust rail system and mechanical components are built for reliability and require minimal maintenance for prolonged stability. Combined with the Lincoln Electric Idealarc Multi-Process Welder and Hypertherm EDGE Connect CNC, the Vader is an exceptional system for automated welding solutions.
