Why Different Solutions?

Why Different Braided Metal Hoses Require Different Welding Solutions

Different braided metal hose structures, fitting types, production volumes, and application requirements often require different welding approaches.

For some manufacturers, production efficiency is the top priority. For others, flexibility for different hose assemblies or higher welding reliability is more important.

MecaNext provides three different automatic TIG welding solutions for braided metal hose according to different production requirements.

Our solutions have been discussed, tested, and supplied to leading hose manufacturers in the industry.

Process Validation Before Machine Investment

Automated welding is not just about equipment selection —

welding feasibility and process stability must be validated before investment. Before investing in an automated welding system, we offer sample-based process validation to help you identify the most suitable welding solution.

By testing your hose samples, we help you:

  • Validate welding feasibility
  • Optimize welding parameters
  • Reduce investment risk

3 Automatic TIG Welding Solutions

Choose the Right Process for Your Braided Metal Hose Production

Each process solves different production challenges, from efficiency and flexibility to high-reliability welding quality.

01 One-Shot TIG Welding
Best for high-volume standard hose production

One-Shot TIG Welding for Braided Metal Hoses

What is one-shot welding?

One-shot welding combines sealing and fitting welding into one automatic welding process. It is designed for manufacturers requiring high production efficiency and stable repetitive production for large volume production.

Best For

  • High-volume hose production
  • Standard braided hose assemblies
  • Repetitive production requirements
  • DN6–DN50 braided hoses

Advantages

  • High production efficiency
  • Reduced manual handling
  • Stable welding consistency
  • Short cycle time
  • Lower operator dependence

Typical Challenges Solved

  • Inconsistent manual welding
  • Low production efficiency
  • Unstable fitting alignment
  • Welding variation between operators

02 Traditional Sealing + Fitting Welding
Best for frequent size changeover

Traditional Sealing + Fitting Welding for Braided Metal Hoses

What is traditional sealing + fitting welding?

This process separates sealing welding and fitting welding into two different welding steps. Compared with one-shot welding, it provides better flexibility for manufacturers producing multiple hose types or frequent size changes.

Best For

  • Flexible production environments
  • Small batch production
  • Frequent size changeover
  • Different fitting structures

Advantages

  • Better production flexibility
  • Easier fixture adjustment
  • Suitable for various hose structures
  • Easier process control for complex assemblies

Typical Challenges Solved

  • Different hose structures requiring flexible welding setup
  • Frequent fixture replacement
  • Small-volume customized production
  • Multiple fitting structures

03 Two-Stage Welding
Best for critical and high-reliability applications

Two-Stage Welding for Critical Applications

What is two-stage welding?

First hose-to-fitting without braids, then braid and neck ring welding. This helps ensure precision and strong welds for complex hoses.

Best For

  • Food industry
  • Pharmaceutical applications
  • Medical hose assemblies
  • Aerospace applications
  • Military applications
  • High-cleanliness production requirements

Advantages

  • Better welding penetration control
  • Reduced welding interference from braids
  • Improved welding consistency
  • Better cleanliness and reliability
  • More stable welding quality for critical applications

Typical Challenges Solved

  • Higher welding quality requirements
  • Higher pressure leak-tight welding requirements
  • Clean welding requirements for critical industries
