Evolution of the FusingX Hydraulic Unit

The image above compares the first- and second-generation FusingX hydraulic units used in FusingX butt fusion welding systems under Welping.
The second-generation design is the result of long-term on-site use, with the structure, operating method, and overall layout refined to better match real job-site conditions.

These updates focus on practical requirements such as mobility, protection, operating logic, and overall system completeness.

For this reason, wheels are now standard on second-generation FusingX hydraulic units from 400 mm and above, making positioning and relocation on site easier.

2. Flip-Top Structure for Job-Site Protection

Dust and debris are common in HDPE pipe welding environments.
To better protect internal components during operation and storage, the second-generation hydraulic unit adopts a flip-top structure, while also allowing easier access for inspection and adjustment when needed.

3. Remote Control Operation

The first-generation hydraulic unit relied mainly on manual lever operation, requiring the operator to stay close to the unit.

In actual welding work, operators often need to move around the machine to observe alignment and welding conditions.

The second-generation unit introduces remote control operation, allowing more flexible movement while maintaining control of the welding process.

4. Reorganized Control Panel Layout

The control panel of the second-generation hydraulic unit has been reorganized.

Controls and indicators are arranged more clearly, making operation more intuitive and reducing unnecessary handling during on-site work.

5. Unified Structure and Appearance

Along with functional updates, the second-generation FusingX hydraulic unit features a more unified structure and balanced proportions, aligning visually and structurally with the overall FusingX welding system.

Conclusion

The second-generation FusingX hydraulic unit reflects a series of practical refinements based on real job-site experience.
Improvements in mobility, protection, operation, and overall structure make it better suited for long-term HDPE butt fusion welding applications.
