Double Head Conveyor Idler Welding Machine

About Double Head Conveyor Idler Welding Machine

A Double Head Conveyor Idler Welding Machine is a special-purpose welding system used in conveyor idler manufacturing plants. Its role is to weld both end caps (with bearings/seal housings) to the conveyor idler pipe simultaneously.
This ensures fast production, strong joints, and uniform quality, which are critical since idlers operate continuously in mining, steel, cement, and power industries.

Key Features

• Double Welding Heads Welds both sides of the idler at the same time.

• Rotary Pipe Drive The roller pipe rotates during welding for a smooth circular seam.

• Automatic Clamping Pipe is centered and held securely.

• Adjustable Range Can weld different pipe diameters and lengths.

• Welding Process Options

  • MIG/CO Welding (most common for idlers)

  • SAW Submerged Arc Welding (for heavy-duty rollers)

• Control System Semi-automatic with timers or fully automatic with PLC.

• Cycle Time 3060 seconds per idler depending on pipe size and welding type.

Applications

• Idler Manufacturing Plants Bulk production of conveyor rollers.

• Mining Industry Heavy-duty idlers for long conveyors.

• Steel, Cement, Power Plants Mass production of carrying and return rollers.

Advantages

• High Productivity Welds both ends in one operation (50% faster).

• Uniform Quality Consistent weld bead and penetration.

• Durability Strong joints, extending idler service life.

• Operator-Friendly Easy setup, semi or fully automatic operation.

• Customizable Designed as per pipe diameter, wall thickness, and idler design.
