Orbital tube/pipe welding is an advanced, automated welding technique used for joining tubes and pipes, especially in industries where precision, cleanliness, and high-quality welds are critical. The process involves rotating an electrode around a fixed workpiece (tube or pipe), which ensures consistent and uniform welds with minimal heat distortion. This process is widely used in applications such as aerospace, power generation, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, food and beverage, and semiconductor industries, where precise and reliable welds are essential to system integrity and performance.

The process is typically carried out using advanced welding machines that can control the welding speed, heat input, and welding parameters with extreme accuracy. Orbital welding ensures consistent high-quality welds, reduced human error, and the ability to weld difficult-to-reach locations, improving efficiency in manufacturing and installation.
