In collaboration with Curtiss-Wright's Surface Technologies division, EST Group created a robotic assembly, measurement and laser marking cell for their Pop-A-Plug® Tube Plug product line. This automated cell has expanded production capacity while providing in-line inspection and marking for each part.
G-250 Vacuum Tube Testing Tool is designed to quickly seal off and evacuate individual heat exchanger tubes to test for leakage. Machined from high strength aluminum alloy reducing fatigue associated with using heavier testing equipment. Optional seal sets are available to test tubes to 2.50” (63.5mm). Digital pressure gauges also available.
Rapidly detect tube leaks while providing a safer working environment for plant personnel. Innovative patented gripper design provides increased operator safety. Durable cast aluminum housing fully protects gauges. Analog & digital gauge versions available.
