3. What is Special with Wuxi JACK Z30 Large and Heavy duty I H Beam Assembly Machine?

Our Achievement: In year 2025 and 2026, Wuxi JACK produced 3 sets of Z30 large models I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine for customers in India, Middle East, and South America. Customers come from Energy, Steel Structure, Bridge Construction. This is milestone of Wuxi JACK for delivering large models I H Beam Assembly Machine to customers. Summing up, there are several technical special points:
1) Length of input and output conveyor roller table: Large cross section H Beam usually also has longer lengths. So, Z30 model usually is equipped with 4 segments of 2.6m roller tables each, for input and output conveyors;

2) CO₂ Tack Welding in Z30 Large I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine:

a) Automatic or Manual Welding? The Z30 model finished production and had FAT (Factory acceptance test) by customer engineers in August 2026 is not automatic CO₂ tack welding;
b) This is because that, size of H Beam is very large, especially thickness of flange (80mm) and web (70mm). If adopt automatic welding, sometimes fully penetrated welding seam can not be acquired, and often to be neglected. Under such cases, need operator to make adjustment and have touch- up welding. In this respect, manual tack welding is more applicable for large model I H Beam Assembly Machine;

3) Structure of Wuxi JACK Z30 Large Model I H Beam Assembly Machine:

There are also large changes with machine structure, when H Beam web assembly height is increased from 2,000mm to 3,000mm. The 2 typical modifications are:
I, Downward press beam:
Comparison on main frame front view of Z15- Z20 conventional (Left), versus Z28- Z30 large model (Right) I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine (Taken in August 2026): (Fig.4, 5)

a) As can be seen from the above 2 photos, in conventional Z15- Z20 model, there is only 1 piece of downward press beam inside upper gantry, to fit on H Beam web height up to 1500mm/ 1800mm/ 2000mm;
b) In Z28- Z30 large models, there 2 pieces of downward press beam in series. The bottom one is for pressing against top surface of H Beam upper flange, same function as in conventional models I H Beam Assembly Machine; The top one is for fitting on 3 grades of H Beam web height: 1500mm, 2000mm, 3000mm. The switch among these 3 grades is by means of travel crane, and manual fixation;

II, External brace:
Comparison on main frame lateral view of Z15- Z20 conventional (Left) versus Z28- Z30 large model (Right) I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine (Taken in August 2026): (Fig.6, 7)

a) As can be seen from the above 2 photos, in conventional Z15- Z20 model, the upper gantry itself can be maintained upright position with sufficient strength and integrity, without external support;
b) In Z28- Z30 large models, because of large height (6m) of main machine, need 2 pieces of 45° slant braces, to help maintaining upright of Z30 main machine;

4. Solid and Durable Mechanical Assemblies of Wuxi JACK I H Beam Assembly Machine in Year 2025:

To accomplish on sophisticated task of T Beam H Beam assembly and CO₂ tack welding, one set of the I H Beam Assembly Machine contain below function units of:

1. Mechanical Frame (Main Machine) of I H Beam Assembly Machine:

1) This includes: Mechanical base bed and U shape top gantry. The 2 assemblies are packed separately for transportation, and assembled into an integral body at running site;
2) During work, a piece of oil cylinder drive long rod, which is assembled in the U shape top gantry in vertical position, goes downward and exerts heavy downward pressure force onto T Beam and H Beam, firmly and precisely holding workpieces steadily;
3) Central function unit, which complete final precise assembly on T Beam and H Beam, is assembled here onto base bed of mechanical main frame.

6. PLC of I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine:

1. Classification on I H Beam Assembly and Tack Welding Machine:

1) Control Mode:
There are two main types of
a) Semi-Automatic: T Beam H Beam assembly is implemented with manual operation, it is rarely selected nowadays by year 2026;
b) Automatic: T Beam H Beam precise assembly is managed with PLC controller;
2) CO₂ Welding Mode:
a) Automatic Welding: Performed with 2 sets of CO₂ GMAW welding power supply and its control consoles;
b) Manual Welding: Performed by 2 welders who stand at both sides of machine output roller tables, it is also rarely selected nowadays by year 2026;

2. Model Selection in I H Beam Assembly Machine：

1) Financial Analysis: In this respect, although with 20% higher machine quotation, automatic mode saves 2 operators (Variable cost) than manual mode models;
2) Welding Quality: Besides, automatic stitch welding delivers far more stable and consistent welding seams on assembled T I H Beams than manual operation.
