The Steelmax® Arc Runner is a portable, programmable welding carriage designed to produce consistent, high-quality welds. The powerful magnetic base and closed loop electronic speed control provide speed stabilization in all positions. The unit enables weld bead geometry that is exact to the required specifications, substantially reducing costly over welding and decreasing filler metal usage. The Arc Runner can be programmed in continuous or stitch welding modes. Two easy-to-use function buttons enable programming of weld length, distance between welds, reverse fill, crater fill time and other required patterns and parameters. The Arc Runner travels at full speed between stitches, which saves valuable welding time. An optional pendulum torch oscillator is available for the Arc Runner to produce weave welds. The oscillator allows for precise control of weave width, weave speed and left/right side wall dwell. Arc Runner’s micro processor allows for development, storage and reproduction of up to 40 different welding programs for various joint configurations and multi-pass, multi-layer welds. Once an optimum weld procedure is developed, stored and programmed, Arc Runner will repeat it over and over again. FEATURES -
Increase your production and reduce your welding costs with the Li’l Runner Automatic Fillet Welding Carriage. By providing constant, non-stop travel at a regulated speed, Li’l Runner produces consistent high-quality welds in a fraction of the time required by hand welding. The regulated travel speed creates weld bead geometry which is exact to your specifications, reducing costly over welding and decreasing filler metal usage by as much as 60%. Li’l Runner will produce quality welds faster and with less cost than hand welding. At just over 17 lbs (8 Kg), this compact, portable tractor can be carried anywhere. The Li'l Runner Welding Carriage is available in two unique verisons; (i) the high speed version (up to 86 IPM) which can be used for cutting and welding applications; and (ii) the dual power version (battery powered with a line power adapter). The Li'l Runner family of carriages offer a broad range of capabilities in one of the smallest fillet welders on the market today.

The Compact Battery-Powered Welding Carriage
The Eco Runner II is a battery-powered portable welding carriage designed to produce continuous fillet welds using MIG/MAG torches in the flat or vertical welding positions. Providing mechanized motion of the welding torch, the Eco Runner allows for continuous welding which increases operating factor and weld deposition rates. A 4-wheel drive system and permanent magnetic base provide powerful traction, smooth travel and stable speeds. A digital speed readout insures repeatability of the weld procedure and produces weld bead geometry that is exact to the required specifications, reducing costly over welding and substantially decreasing filler metal usage. A quick disconnect torch holder allows the torch to be easily swapped from one side of the Eco Runner to the other, enabling the operator to weld the entire workpiece from end to end. CAS LiHD battery delivers enough power for handling even the toughest applications with no cables. FEATURES- Compact and lightweight design for welding in narrow spaces
- Convenient 18 V DC battery supply
- Versatile quick disconnect torch clamp for easy placement of the torch on either side
- Digital LED display for presetting travel speed
- Low-battery indicator
- Built-in guide rollers
