The UNI-BUG II is a small, lightweight, versatile machine originally de-
signedfor theshipbuilding industryto weldor cutcoamings, flanges, stiffen-
ers and similar joints. Previously this work could not be automated because
therewas notenough room to mount a machine track system orthe available
machines were too large to follow some of the workpiece curves or get into
tight work areas.
The UNI-BUG II is small enough to carry a cutting torch or welding gun
into tight work areas or around very tight curves without the use of a track.
The built-in carrying handle allows for easy mounting and removal at any
point along the workpiece. The UNI-BUG II can weld or cut both straight line
and on an inner radius as small as 6"(152 mm). It will travel at speeds of
4-75 ipm (102-1905 mm/min) with a 50 lb. (22.7 kg) horizontal pulling
capacity.
The UNI-BUG II is designed to run on the edge of a bar or stiffener up to
2" (50.8 mm) thick as shown below. Front and rear rollers support the
machine and tilt it forward for better control and traction. This also sets the
working direction. The machine must be turned around to weld the other
side of the workpiece.

NOTES:

TheUNI-BUG II canoperate without atrack asshown below. Agear motor
turns two drive wheels on one side of the workpiece. On the other side of the
workpiece is a bracket which has four idler wheels mounted on it. An idler
screw knob is used to move the idler wheel bracket into the workpiece and
clamp it between the four idler wheels and the two drive wheels.
BUG-1855 Welding Group is required to clamp and position a welding
gun. BUG-1875 Cutting Group is available for cutting applications.
INTRODUCTION(CONT’D.)
1.Loosen the idlerscrew knob toopen the gapbetween the idler wheels and
the drive wheels. When the gap is large enough, drop the machine over
the workpiece edge.
2. The machine should be firmly resting on the front and back roller
supports and tilt forward in the direction of desired travel.
3. Engage the idler screw knob until all of the idler and drive wheels are
contacting the workpiece. Tighten another 1/2-3/4 turn to firmly clamp the
workpiece.
4. Adjust the UNI-BUG II racking attachment so the welding gun or cutting
torch is properly positioned. The are should always be placed below the
center of the machine so that the gun or torch can hold the same relative
position as the machine moves from a straight to a curved work section.
5. Set the machine speed using the speed control.
6. Set the travel switch to “ON”.
7. Turn on the weld contactor switch to begin welding.

“Remote” Position
The UNI-1550 is a modification of the UNI-BUG II, that has been adapted
to connect to a Stitch Module on a remote pendant.
A rotary selector switch enables the Stitch Module, and transfers control
of the speed, travel times and weld contactor to the pendant. For safety
reasons, the Weld Contact Toggle Switch on the UNI-BUG must be set in
the “0” or OFF when using the UNI-BUG in the Remote mode, or the weld
contactor will not operate.
With the Stitch Module removed, the unit will function as a standard
UNI-BUG II. The “Remote” position of the Rotary Switch will be disabled.

The UNI-BUG II can be adapted for dual welding applications as shown
below. A double racker mounting angle is bolted directly onto the left side of
themachine using two 1/4-20 sockethead cap screws. Two 3.5"rackholders
are then mounted to the angle, each engaged with a 7-1/2" rack positioned
horizontally in opposite directions. At the end of each horizontal rack, a right
angle clamp block is attached allowing for an additional rackholder and
7-1/2"rack to bemounted vertically. At the end of each vertical rack, a swivel
clamp assembly and torch clamp are added. A cable anchor with swivel
clamp is mounted to the front right side of the UNI-BUG II to complete the
set up.
UNI-BUGIIFORDUALWELDING
A UNI-BUG II converted for dual welding using a UNI-1350 UNI-BUG Dual
WeldingGroup.
RACKMOUNTING
The handle mounting bracket has been redesigned so that it can be
mounted on either the left or right side of the machine. This allows the
rackholder and rack also to be mounted on either side. The welding gun can
then be positioned behind the drive desired, to reduce heating of the rollers.
UNI-1019STEELDRIVEROLL
Optional hardened steel drive rolls are available for use when running on
a heated workpiece, which could melt the sleeves on the standard drive
rolls.

The UNI-BUG II can be adapted for dual welding applications as shown
below. A double racker mounting angle is bolted directly onto the left side of
themachine using two 1/4-20 sockethead cap screws. Two 3.5"rackholders
are then mounted to the angle, each engaged with a 7-1/2" rack positioned
horizontally in opposite directions. At the end of each horizontal rack, a right
angle clamp block is attached allowing for an additional rackholder and
7-1/2"rack to bemounted vertically. At the end of each vertical rack, a swivel
clamp assembly and torch clamp are added. A cable anchor with swivel
clamp is mounted to the front right side of the UNI-BUG II to complete the
set up.
UNI-BUGIIFORDUALWELDING
A UNI-BUG II converted for dual welding using a UNI-1350 UNI-BUG Dual
WeldingGroup.
RACKMOUNTING
The handle mounting bracket has been redesigned so that it can be
mounted on either the left or right side of the machine. This allows the
rackholder and rack also to be mounted on either side. The welding gun can
then be positioned behind the drive desired, to reduce heating of the rollers.
UNI-1019STEELDRIVEROLL
Optional hardened steel drive rolls are available for use when running on
a heated workpiece, which could melt the sleeves on the standard drive
rolls.

“Remote” Position
The UNI-1550 is a modification of the UNI-BUG II, that has been adapted
to connect to a Stitch Module on a remote pendant.
A rotary selector switch enables the Stitch Module, and transfers control
of the speed, travel times and weld contactor to the pendant. For safety
reasons, the Weld Contact Toggle Switch on the UNI-BUG must be set in
the “0” or OFF when using the UNI-BUG in the Remote mode, or the weld
contactor will not operate.
With the Stitch Module removed, the unit will function as a standard
UNI-BUG II. The “Remote” position of the Rotary Switch will be disabled.

TheUNI-BUG II canoperate without atrack asshown below. Agear motor
turns two drive wheels on one side of the workpiece. On the other side of the
workpiece is a bracket which has four idler wheels mounted on it. An idler
screw knob is used to move the idler wheel bracket into the workpiece and
clamp it between the four idler wheels and the two drive wheels.
BUG-1855 Welding Group is required to clamp and position a welding
gun. BUG-1875 Cutting Group is available for cutting applications.
INTRODUCTION(CONT’D.)
1.Loosen the idlerscrew knob toopen the gapbetween the idler wheels and
the drive wheels. When the gap is large enough, drop the machine over
the workpiece edge.
2. The machine should be firmly resting on the front and back roller
supports and tilt forward in the direction of desired travel.
3. Engage the idler screw knob until all of the idler and drive wheels are
contacting the workpiece. Tighten another 1/2-3/4 turn to firmly clamp the
workpiece.
4. Adjust the UNI-BUG II racking attachment so the welding gun or cutting
torch is properly positioned. The are should always be placed below the
center of the machine so that the gun or torch can hold the same relative
position as the machine moves from a straight to a curved work section.
5. Set the machine speed using the speed control.
6. Set the travel switch to “ON”.
7. Turn on the weld contactor switch to begin welding.
