That is why the automatic welding machine has a guide rod and smooth-running transport wheels, allowing it to be easily moved from joint to joint. When you perform your next installation of elastic and antistatic floor coverings in larger construction projects such as public facilities, e.g. kindergartens, schools and hospitals, you will be pleased. UNIFLOOR 500 is also a pleasure to work with when laying particularly hard-wearing and large industrial floors.
Durable and Quiet
If you already have other automatic welding machines, extrusion welders and heat guns from Leister, then you're already aware of their long service life. Of course, the new UNIFLOOR 500 also has a brushless drive and blower motor, which makes it particularly durable and quiet. When the hot air blower is in the resting position, the air volume of the hot air blower is automatically reduced, which lowers the noise emission to barely audible. In concrete terms, this means that you can listen to music while you work, talk to your colleagues on the job site, etc. without worrying about the automatic welder being too loud. But how does the hot air unit know that the UNIFLOOR 500 is in the rest position? More about this in the next section.
Less Energy Consumption Thanks to ECO Mode
When you take a longer break while working, your UNIFLOOR 500 goes into ECO Mode, which significantly reduces your energy consumption on the job site. You may already be familiar with this from other Leister devices such as the SOLANO AT and the TRIAC AT. The UNIFLOOR 500s ECO mode works without a motion sensor and is therefore a bit different, however, the result is the same. For example, if you do not need the UNIFLOOR 500 for roughly 10 minutes during your breakfast break, it will lower the air temperature to 350 °C / 662 °F in ECO mode. This protects the environment and the tools heating element. As soon as you finish your break and start your UNIFLOOR 500 again, it raises the temperature from 350°C / 662 °F back to the temperature you set within one to two minutes. Now you can show off a bit with your new UNIFLOOR 500 and we'll tell you something else: When it comes to floor installations, both its quiet operation and the ECO mode are unique and make your new UNIFLOOR 500 a superstar in the flooring industry.
Welding parameters can be easily read and set via display
Temperature, speed and air volume are the three adjustable welding parameters that you have under control when installing the floor. To do this, simply take a look at the UNIFLOOR 500 display and set the parameters directly as you need them or as recommended by the material manufacturer.
Different welding rod diameters and easy insertion of the welding rod
Different welding rod diameters such as 5 mm / 0.2 in, 4 mm / 0.16 in and 3 mm / 0.12 in were also taken into account in the development of this automatic welding machine. So when you change from a thinner to a thicker welding rod when laying the floor, you simply adjust the contact pressure of the pressure roller with an adjusting screw.
Have you found the insertion of the welding rod difficult or awkward? With the UNIFLOOR 500 this is quite simple: Fold up the pressure roller, put the welding rod in, fold down the pressure roller and continue with the joint closing.
Simple reduction of the preheating air for grouting natural coverings
As floor professionals, you know: If you want to joint natural linoleum or rubber flooring, you must reduce the preheating air that heats the welding rod. This is because not every welding rod can tolerate the same amount of preheated air to be processed.
