0334333880 - ESAB 60mm Motorized Torch Slide 42V

Enhance Your Automated Welding Precision

Achieving the perfect weld in an automated setup requires more than just a good power source; it requires exact positioning of the arc. The ESAB Motorized Slide 60mm 42V is designed to give you that control. Whether you are running a sub-arc tractor on a long beam or managing a complex MIG setup on a column and boom, this motorized slide acts as your remote hand, adjusting the torch position with millimeter accuracy while the arc is on.

Why Use a Motorized Slide?
Manual slides are great for initial setup, but once the welding starts, stopping to adjust the torch ruins productivity and can create defects. With this 42V motorized unit, your automation controller can make micro-adjustments on the fly. This is especially useful for "joint tracking," where the slide automatically moves the torch left or right to follow a seam that isn't perfectly straight, or for "height control," where it moves up and down to keep the voltage constant. The 60mm stroke provides ample range for these corrections during standard runs.

Built for the Shop Floor
We know that welding equipment takes a beating. Heat, dust, and constant vibration are part of the job. ESAB has engineered this slide to handle the load. The motor is powerful enough to lift heavy torch assemblies without stalling, and the slide mechanism is smooth, preventing the "stuttering" motion that can cause wavy weld beads. The 42V input is a safety-standard voltage for automation equipment, keeping high-voltage lines away from the mechanical adjustment points.

Installation and Compatibility
This slide is designed to fit seamlessly with ESAB's A2 and A6 automation systems. It installs easily onto standard mounting blocks and connects directly to your process controller. Whether you are replacing a worn-out unit or building a custom rig, this slide provides the reliability you need to keep your arc burning and your production line moving. It eliminates the guesswork, letting you focus on the weld parameters while the slide handles the positioning.
