BUG-O Systems Inc., a division of Weld Tooling Corporation founded in 1948, is a manufacturer of a system of drives, carriages, rails and attachments designed to automate welding guns, cutting torches and other hand held tools.

The Modular Drive System is the only product in the industry that allows the user to configure one machine for various automated applications, now and in the future.

 


 

The MDS produces precise, accurate cuts and welds. The Master Drive Unit has a high torque, low inertia motor for precise stops and starts and a dedicated fail-safe brake with three times the stopping and holding power of the motor. The unit is equipped with motor overload protection which turns the motor off and engages the brake whenever an excessive load is placed on the machine. In addition, the Master Drive features closed loop speed control for adjustable, repeatable control of critical welding or cutting parameters, and closed loop position control to prevent creep.

 

 

The BUG-O DC IV is a dual speed range, positive rack & pinion drive, ready for mounting welding or cutting attachments and accessories. It consists of a DC IV Drive unit mounted on a 12" (305 mm) Carriage. This unit runs on standard Aluminum Rigid Rail & Aluminum Flex Rail.

The BUG-GY Fillet Welder is designed for making continuous or intermittent stitch welds on fillet, lap or butt joints. It is a light weight portable carriage that uses powerful magnets and guide wheels to clamp and track on the work piece. The BUG-GY is self-guiding and requires little operator input once it is set up. It can be programmed for stitch welding by distance and features automatic weld back for crater fill.

Between stitch welds the BUG-GY accelerates to a top speed of 120 ipm (300 mm/min). Dynamic breaking and closed loop feed back allow the BUG-GY to make crisp starts and stops and to travel at precise speeds.

Limit switches provide automatic shutoff at the end of the joint.

The Universal Bug-O-Matic (BUG-5700, BUG-5702 and BUG-5704) is a compact unit which combines a powerful drive and precision oscillator all in one housing. The unit is lightweight and can easily be handled by one operator. The machine works in all positions and can be used for vertical and overhead welds. By simply changing the carriage, the unit can work on rigid rail, semi-flex rail, hi-flex rail or complete ring rails.

The opening mechanism of the carriage allows the unit to be released or installed anywhere on the rail.
While welding, adjustments can be made to the travel speed, amplitude and oscillation speed as well as dwell left and dwell right. While the machine is welding, the torch can be guided by a separate steering knob.

Closed loop feedback and dynamic braking allow the Bug-O-Matic to make precise starts, stops and travel at a constant speed.
