A light-duty, all-position variable speed travel carriage with electronic drive, dynamic braking and speed potentiometer providing infinite speed selection within the range of 2-45 ipm (5-114cm/min). It is equipped with a Forward/Reverse switch, a Run/Stop switch, 1 amo, a slow-blow fuse, and a “power on” pilot light. The carriage is designed to run only on rigid, straight Kat track. It has a vertical load capacity of 50lbs (23Kg).
The carriage travels in a forward or reverse direction (vertical or horizontal) on its track, moving the torch or welding gun along the pre-set path at precisely controlled speeds. The accuracy, uniformity and quality of the cut or weld are improved. Productivity is increased. Costs reduced. It is important to note that the Kat II carriage is not designed to travel on a radius roll-formed track.
