OVERVIEW

Automate Your Welding with Precision and Ease

Take your fabrication shop to the next level with the Profax PTST250 5x5 Welding Manipulator System. If you are tired of the inconsistencies and fatigue associated with manual welding on long seams or large pipes, this programmable system is the answer. Designed to hold your welding torch steady while moving it with absolute precision, the PTST250 ensures that every bead looks exactly like the last one—perfect. With 5 feet of vertical lift and 5 feet of reach, it’s the perfect size for handling a wide variety of jobs without taking up your entire floor space.

Programmable Control for Perfect Welds
Gone are the days of guessing travel speeds. The "PROG SYS" (Programmable System) puts you in complete control. You can dial in the exact speed and path you need, allowing the machine to do the hard work while you monitor the process. This is especially useful for critical applications where heat input and travel speed must be strictly maintained. The included Remote Hand Module (RHM) puts all these controls right in the palm of your hand, so you can make adjustments on the fly without having to walk back to the main console.

Built for the Grind
Welding shops are tough environments, and Profax equipment is built to survive them. The PTST250 features a rugged steel construction that minimizes vibration, ensuring your arc stays stable even when the boom is fully extended. This stability is key to achieving those smooth, professional-looking welds that customers demand. Whether you are welding stainless steel tanks, carbon steel pipes, or structural beams, this manipulator acts as a steady "third hand" that never gets tired, never shakes, and never calls in sick.

Versatile Application
This system isn't just for one type of welding. It pairs perfectly with your existing MIG or TIG setups and is robust enough for Submerged Arc applications. Combine it with a set of turning rolls or a positioner, and you have a complete automated welding cell capable of turning out parts faster than ever before. Upgrade your workflow today with the Profax 5x5 Manipulator and experience the difference that automation makes in productivity and weld quality.

FAQ

The PTST250 features a 5-foot vertical lift and a 5-foot horizontal boom reach.

No, the PTST250 is a manipulator system only. You will need to supply your own welding power source and wire feeder.

It stands for Programmable System, indicating the unit includes a controller for automating weld sequences and travel speeds.

RHM stands for Remote Hand Module, which is a pendant that allows the operator to control the manipulator functions remotely.

Yes, the manipulator provides the steady torch positioning required for high-quality TIG welding applications.

Yes, it typically comes with a heavy-duty base, but it should be anchored to the floor for maximum stability and safety.

While specific capacity should be verified in the manual, '250' in the model number often implies a load capacity around 250 lbs at the boom end.

Programmable systems often support weaving oscillators, but you should check if an oscillator is included or needs to be added separately.
