The Latest in Fusion Innovation Has Arrived at GEM!
Nothing beats unwrapping a brand‑new McElroy TracStar 618 I‑Series, now on the ground at GEM Industrial.
This state‑of‑the‑art fusion welding machine is built to lift precision, consistency, and performance across our HDPE welding operations. The latest I‑Series platform brings a range of major innovations, including:
Automatic mechanical heater release - the heater plate retracts from the fusion zone the moment heat‑soak is complete, improving safety and weld consistency.
Integrated software‑controlled operation modes - from manual through to fully automatic, supporting operator consistency and adherence to standards.
Built‑in DL7 DataLogger - delivering seamless QA, traceability, and weld record management.
Three levels of machine control - Manual Control, Enhanced Guided Workflow, and Automatic Fusion.
A special thanks to Jakeb Ryan, whose work behind the scenes ensured this machine was sourced, delivered, and ready for commissioning without missing a beat.
GEM is excited to get this unit on‑site and into service for our clients - another investment in capability, quality, and industry‑leading workmanship.
