Weld Revolution LLC has developed a new welding technology called SpinArc that increases welding speed by 50%, reduces distortion by 75%, and cuts material handling and prep time by 50%. It enables high productivity welding in all positions and makes welding easier to learn. SpinArc speeds welding, reduces costs, minimizes rework, and improves quality for industries like transportation, shipbuilding, oil and gas, and more. Weld Revolution is changing how the world welds.

8. SpinArc® Solution
• speeds welding 50%
• reduces distortion by 75%
• cuts material handling & prep time in half
• enables all-position high productivity
• easier for new welders to learn
• allows single-sided welds

9. Industry Segments
Transportation Ship Building Pipe Offshore
Structural Oil & Gas Heavy Fabrication Power Generation

10. Materials
High Alloys Stainless
Aluminum Steel

11. Cladding & Hardfacing
• Lower % Fe in a single layer on corrosion resistant alloys, e.g. 625
• High deposition rates in all positions (12-15 lbs/hr, 5-7 kg/hr)
• Controlled penetration
• Consistent carbide matrix
on hardfacing alloys
• Uniform HAZ
• Wide weld bead for
faster area coverage

12. Fillet Welds
• Increase travel speeds by 25 to 50%
• Porosity-free welds, even on weld-
through primer at 50+ ipm (1.3
m/min)
• Ideal penetration profile to minimize
risk of failure from cracking
• Equal leg sizes reduce over welding

13. Groove Welds
• Defect-free narrow groove welding
• Welding high-strength steels with less
risk of cracking due to even heat
distribution and associated cooling rates
• Increased deposition rate
• Dramatically less distortion
• Reduced residual stresses
• 50%+ less filler metal usage

14. Out-of-Position Welding
• Full-penetration with one pass
• 1-sided welds on 3/16 – 1/4”
(4.7 – 6.4 mm) in 2G (PC) position
• Less distortion
• Reduced rework
• Increased deposition rates
• Faster travel speeds

15. Aluminum, Nickel & Exotic Alloys
• Reduced distortion
• Higher deposition rates
• Lower heat input
• Faster travel speeds
• Higher quality through a more
balanced grain structure due to
puddle stirring action

22. Benefits
Improves Productivity
• Reduce overall process costs by 50%
• Cut weld time by 60%
• Increase fillet weld speeds by 55%
• Lower joint prep costs by 70%
• Reduce weld metal volume by 40%
• Increase deposition rate by 50%
• Reduce handling by welding in all
positions
Minimizes Rework
• Reduce distortion by 75%
• Control bead profile & penetration
