Climax BW5000 Auto Bore Welder
The CLIMAX BW5000 Auto Bore Welder is a modular bore welding and cladding system for large components. Its welding assembly rotates around a stationary workpiece. Select the travel, radial reach and accessories for the repair geometry and welding procedure.
Large-component bore welding and cladding
The BW5000 combines reversible rotation with adjustable step feed, auto-skip, pie mode and carriage return. Depending on the selected configuration, it can support bore rebuilding, outside-diameter overlay, flange-face work and conical-seat applications.

Confirm the reach and welding package
CLIMAX also describes bore build-up capability to 144 in (3657.6 mm) across configurations. This does not mean every package covers the full range. Confirm bore diameter, working depth, mounting clearance and required radial equipment before selecting a system. Conical-seat work requires the appropriate angle accessory.
Material compatibility, filler wire, shielding gas, surface preparation and deposition settings must suit the component and repair procedure. Discuss the required power-source interface and welding equipment with Justram; do not assume an existing power source or every accessory is included.
Discuss your application with Justram
Send the component drawing or dimensions, material, worn area, required finished size, site access and available welding equipment. These details help identify the appropriate configuration and any machining required after the weld build-up.
For other automated bore-welding applications, compare the BW3000 Auto Bore Welder or BW2600 Auto Bore Welder.
