Despite its compact design, this powerful machine provides the same simple operation, precise movements and extensive data logging capabilities as larger Fronius machines. “The Compact Cladder supplies the high-end deposit of welds needed to meet the high standards and specifications of the industry,” Mr. Lee says.. “We have used it with exotic alloys that are difficult to weld under the best circumstances.” Mr. Lee also appreciates the fact that Fronius designs and manufactures every part of their machines, so a single technician can service the entire machine. If there is ever a problem, service is a single phone call away, eliminating the need to call multiple vendors to service one machine. Plus, all the parts are built to work together in a smoothly operating system designed to produce the highest quality, a fact that is apparent in the homogenous appearance of the welds, Mr. Lee says. More and more companies today recognize the advantages of including protective alloys on their piping, valves and components, and this technology is often included today in the written specifications for a project. With a huge refining base in Louisiana, plus Mr. Lee’s contacts all over the world, he sees a bright future for his fledgling company, and he hopes Innerfuse will contribute to the technological success of the oil industry. “The Compact Cladder supplies the high-end deposit of welds needed to meet the high standards and specifications of the industry,” About the Author Shaun Relyea is Technical Support Manager at Fronius USA.
