DC-IV
The DC IV is a dual-speed, positive-shift drive system ready for mounting, welding, or cutting of fittings and accessories. This system consists of a DC IV drive unit mounted on a 12-inch (305 mm) diameter skid.
Features
- Wing nut locks the track gear to the rail.
- Accesses or disables the cam drive.
- Power cable.
- Power indicator light.
- Forward-Off-Reverse switch.
- Infinitely variable speed control.
- Circuit breaker.
- Factory-fitted pinion provides a high torque, low speed range. Alternate pinion disengages the main gear to achieve a low torque, high speed range.
DC-IV MAX
A turnkey solution for beveling and cutting operations. In the metalworking industry, where beveling or 90° right-angle cuts are required, the DC-IV MAX rail cutting machine offers a unique turnkey solution. This rail cutting system combines Bug-O Systems' specially designed tractor and control unit with an integrated Hypertherm® Powermax®, Powermax SYNC™ series, or MAXPRO® power supply. It provides everything you need to optimize your operations.
Features
- ONETOUCH® – One-touch operation for both tractor and plasma system.
- Ignition start delay allowing arc transfer before tractor movement.
- PSC®, Process Stop Control – When the cutting operation is complete, the entire process stops automatically.
- Integrated with Hypertherm® Powermax® series and MAXPRO® power supplies.
- Perpendicular and angled cutting capability is provided for Powermax® and MAXPRO®.
- Torch alignment guide for angled cutting adjustment.
- Torch holder group providing high load capacity for heavy-duty use.
- Independent manual and front/back angle controls.
- Integrated degree dial on inclination and front/back angle.
- Automatic shut-off at plate end.
- Blast time can be directly set in seconds.
- Oxygen fuel accessory available for cuts larger than 2 inches (50.8 mm).
- Display shows tractor speed in inches/minute or cm/minute.
- Emergency stop.
- Tool-free installation.
- Precise speed adjustment.
- To accommodate the high-frequency starting process of the MAXPRO200®, the MAXPRO200® package includes robust electronic components with enhanced grounding to ensure reliable operation. Made in the USA.
GO-FER ® IV
GO-FER® IV is a portable, versatile, and robust tractor designed for all your cutting and welding needs. It's like using three units in one! When used as an industrial cutting machine, you can use either oxygen-fueled or plasma torches. It can also carry a plasma torch for grooving operations. GO-FER® IV is a versatile and convenient machine that can be used in any position.
Features
- A travel motor suitable for all applications, with a speed range of 2.5 to 100 ipm (63.5-2540 mm/min).
- The motor's dynamic braking prevents back/forward sliding in any position.
- Bright, digital, preset feed rate display for true ipm (distance per second per minute).
- Two independent internal contactors for dual torch applications.
- Oversized industrial non-slip rocker switches (suitable for use with welding gloves).
- Fast-acting gas distribution manifold, dual hose assembly and cable anchorage.
- Power cord with plug lock.
- Welding torch adjustment mechanism for oxygen-fuel and plasma cutting.
- Low-profile housing.
- Top center carrying handle.
- 3-year warranty.
- International version (GOF-4002) includes 240V power cord and screw-lock plug.
- Made in the USA.
Fully Modular System
The Modular System is the only product in the industry that allows the user to configure a single machine for multiple applications. Serving as a welding and automatic cutting machine, the main walking unit includes interchangeable control modules for programmable shape cutting, straight line cutting/welding, seam welding, method seam welding, arc carving, linear oscillation and pendulum oscillation.
Features
- High-torque, low-inertia motor for precise starting and stopping operations.
- High-speed linear/pendulum oscillation machine with independent control of right and left hold times.
- High-speed motor gear prevents the cross arm from moving when the unit is switched off. Closed-loop speed control for adjustable and repeatable control of critical welding parameters.
- Closed-loop position control to prevent deviation from the welding center position.
- Clutch mechanism for quick attachment or replacement of the cross arm.
- A torch mounting group with an adjustable sliding mechanism for accurate torch positioning.
- Contactor on/off switch.
