Ensures perfect alignment for both welding and machining.
One setup for both welding and boring saves time, and helps you get your job done quickly.
Weld & Bore at the Same Time
Because the BW1000 Auto Bore Welder uses the same mounting fixtures as the CLIMAX BB3000, BB4500 or BB5000 Boring Systems, you can weld up one section of your job and bore out another section at the same time. Simply use an extra set of bearing mounts to line bore one set of bores while bore welding another…cuts your work time!
