LORCH Operating Systems
The range of LORCH Mig welding machines is a good example of where synergic control is heading in the Industry 4.0 era.
Time – the single biggest cost in welding
TIME is the single biggest cost in welding. This is particularity relevant in NZ as we are increasingly competing on a global basis against manufacturers and fabricators from countries with low labour costs.
Combatting the lack of skilled welding staff
Highly skilled welders can still experience weld flaws, particularly when getting used to new equipment, or under pressure to meet deadlines, however, more often than not the issue of weld defects boils down to a lack of skilled staff.
LORCH: 10 years later, another winner
The LORCH S3 is now proving to be the welder's ultimate choice for pulse welding with maximum mobility. 100% German manufactured, and backed by a full 3 year industrial use warranty.
NFC Cards – LORCH’s latest innovative technology breaks new ground
LORCH NFC cards allow the welder not only to quickly enter the welding parameters he needs, but also offer an entirely new and efficient approach to quality control.
Today is a new time in industrial welding
LORCH industrial machines offer an affordable entry into the newest technologies and are designed to be easily upgradeable with improved software processes as and when needed.
LORCH Wins 2018 Welding World Award
In Europe, the UK Welding Industry holds an awards evening every 2 years. In March 2018, LORCH was nominated for and won the “Best New Welding Product Supplier” with MICORMIG & NFC products.
Metal Cored Wires vs Solid Wire
Productivity improves with increased deposition rates and higher travel speeds, combine this with the minimal spatter and lack of clean up required.
How to calculate welding consumption
Diagrams for a quick estimation of the consumption of welding consumables for welding ferritic steel, butt joints and fillet joints.
KOBE Gas Shielded Metal Arc Welding Essentials Booklet
The quality of weldments made by GSMAW is markedly affected by the welding parameters set by a welder or a welding operator.
Stress Relief Cracking
PWHT relieves residual stresses, remove diffusible hydrogen, and temper hard transformation microstructures of the weld, preventing brittle fractures.
Porosity in Welding
Porosity refers to cavity-type discontinuities or pores formed by gas entrapment during the solidification of molten weld metal.
