Magnet Bed

  • Ogden's magnet bed is a floor mounted fixture utilizing magnets and a grooved copper back-up bar to support the bottom side of one-sided welds
  • There are two parallel rows of magnets, one on each side of the back-up bar
  • Pneumatically actuated rollers located close to the magnets raise above the magnets to prevent collision during plate loading and unloading.
  • Ogden’s magnet bed will align the plates at the one side welding station. Our Transitional Magnet bed allows plates of dissimilar thickness to be welded.
