K20503814 - Koike Wel-Handy Mini Strong Portable Magnetic Welding Carriage

Take the Strain Out of Long Welds

Welding long seams by hand is physically demanding, often leading to operator fatigue and inconsistent weld quality as the day progresses. The Koike Wel Handy Mini Strong Welding Carriage is your solution to these challenges, acting as a tireless assistant that ensures every inch of your bead is as perfect as the first. Weighing in at only 15 lbs (7 kg), this machine is incredibly portable. You can easily carry it to the job site, lift it onto large workpieces, or position it for vertical welds without breaking your back. It is designed to be a "grab-and-go" automation tool that doesn't require the hassle of setting up heavy tracks or rails.

The "Strong" in its name isn't just for show. With 66 lbs (30 kg) of pulling power, this little tank can haul your MIG gun and heavy cables with ease, maintaining a steady travel speed that is crucial for consistent heat input and penetration. Because it doesn't need a track, you simply place it on the steel, and it's ready to go. It is engineered to handle both flat and vertical-up positions, making it incredibly versatile for tank fabrication, shipbuilding, or structural steel work. The magnetic traction keeps it firmly planted, allowing you to focus on monitoring the puddle rather than managing your body position.

Control is right at your fingertips with the included remote. This feature allows you to dial in weaving settings while the arc is on, giving you the ability to manipulate the weld width and tie-in without stopping the machine. This is particularly useful for vertical welds where weave manipulation is key to preventing sagging. Additionally, the carriage features limit switches that automatically stop the unit at the end of a run, so you don't have to worry about it driving off the edge of the plate if you step away for a second. Upgrade your workflow with the Koike Wel Handy Mini Strong and experience the freedom of automated welding with the flexibility of a hand tool.
