Gecko features 4-wheel drive system with magnetic traction and a control loop feedback mechanism which provides speed stabilization in all welding positions.
Common Characteristics
Primary features and benefits of Gecko welding tractor:
- Compact, lightweight design with durable aluminum cast housing
- Convenient Power Supply 115 – 230 V, 50 – 60 Hz or 42 V, 50 – 60 Hz
- Positive magnetic traction permits out of position use
- Magnet on/off lever permits easy set up and adjustment on work piece
- Maintenance free 4-wheel drive with worm gear reduction
- Heat resistant silicone wheels
- Quick clamping Torch Holder mechanism for different types of MIG/ MAG torches with diameters of 16 - 22 mm (5/ 8" – 7/ 8"); optionally up to 35 mm (1-3/ 8")
- Precise torch adjustment with screw drive cross slide
- Multifunctional LED display - presetting of travel speed, error codes information
- Closed loop speed control system stabilizes travel speed to reduce weld defects and costly rework
- Consistent heat input reduces distortion
- Reduced wasted filler metal – eliminates over welding
- Automatic arc on/off system initiates welding with travel, simultaneously
- Capable of carrying and controlling 2 torches
- Self-guiding roller arms eliminate the need for track
- Multi-surface guiding with user-friendly adjustment of tractor position
- Improves working environment - removes operator from heat and fumes
- Plasma cutting possible
