GREDGER- Back Gouging Grinder

Back gouging or back gauging is the process in which excess weld material is removed from the back side of a weld joint. Only when appropriate back gouging is performed, complete weld fusion of the root side of the weld is assured.

The GREDGER Back Gouging Grinder executes precise back gouging, cleaning the weld area without the hazardous toxic fumes typically emitted with some other back gouging methods. It also significantly reduces the physical strain on operators that comes with manual grinding, all while substantially increasing productivity.

Intelligent Floating System for Consistent Depth and Accuracy

The GREDGER grinder is equipped with an advanced Intelligent Floating System, controlled electronically to ensure consistent back gouging depth along the entire weld. This smart system adapts to the vessel's ovality, maintaining the accuracy of the gouging depth and ensuring uniformity. Moreover, the system's automatic lateral movement during operation ensures the back gouging groove is perfectly aligned and the weld seam is precisely tracked. This level of automation not only elevates productivity but also enhances the quality and consistency of the weld preparation process.
