HWT 160 SW–S

This professional socket welder for saddle-style fittings is designed for all-purpose welding applications in PP, PP‑R, and PEHD pipeline grids, to make branch‑offs of O.D. 20 – 90 mm from straight pipelines of O.D. 40 – 160 mm. It is the ideal choice for making lines branching off from the pipe in a saddle position in tight corners, but also for workshop applications meant for the serial manufacture by a reliable process of distribution/manifold lines with the help of a movable right-hand and left-hand pipe clamp.

The standard delivery includes the all-purpose pipe aligners for straight pipelines sized O.D. 40 – 160 mm, a bracket compatible with various cordless drills/screwdrivers Ø 43 mm driving the drilling head, and clamps for branch-offs in the saddle position sized up to O.D. 63 mm allowing precision alignment of cylindrical and octagonal fittings.

With the HÜRNER quick mounting system, the clamps can be replaced easy as ABC. The chassis/carriage, without the RH and LH pipe‑aligning clamps, can be removed from its steel frame by simply loosening 4 mounting screws and can then be used in areas that are hard to reach or overhead.

Both the operation of the clamps for the straight pipe and the saddle fitting and the movement of the carriage for the latter are implemented as using ergonomically designed handwheels. Additionally, the motion handwheel can be removed easily, to move the clamping chassis/carriage with a common power tool (cordless drill/screwdriver) as its drive.

A special mention deserve the heating element seat next to the chassis for clamping the saddle fitting, on which to place the heating element, and the two freely adjustable depth setpoints. The easy insertion and safe and swift removal of the heating element, including centering and an auto‑detaching step in the change‑over stage, bring a use as convenient as to be considered unique.

The insertion depth setpoints provide, on the one hand, consistent fusion depth and welding position and, on the other, shorter length of movements, thus faster change-over.

Special octagonal clamps for branch‑off fittings, of various wrench sizes, are also available.

HÜRNER WhiteLine WeldControl 2.0

Request a Brochure
The handling of a WeldControl machine is simply unique and it enables an approach to welding no other system is able to offer. Either the operator makes use of the assistance of the interactively responding hydraulic and control unit. Or the manual mode is selected to make the joint “by hand”. In the WeldControl mode the system walks the operator through the process after the pipe parameters were entered or confirmed. This includes monitoring the operator’s inputs and recording the entire process. WeldControl machines do not only provide presets, though; they facilitate the work, e. g., by reducing the pressure automatically when the automode was enabled. Welding reports have all data required by ISO traceability. In the Manual mode the display screen works as a digital gauge. It displays the welding pressures and heating element temperatures and is a one-stop provider of all data. Industry version: Optionally, the machine chassis (250, 315, 355, 500, 630) are also available in an industry set-up with a modified 3rd clamp for clamping fittings with a short connecting stub.*) *) Retrofit kit for converting existing systems to industry version available upon request!
