Wind Tower Manufacturing

Bode automation is used throughout the wind tower manufacturing

Bode Seam Welders are used throughout the World in the construction of Wind Towers. As the diameters of Wind Tower Pylons have increased in diameter, there is now a need to be able to work 12-15m off the ground. Bode have always designed and manufactured elevating types of seam welders, as well as the associated welding platforms, making Bode well placed to offer clients a combination of both. Our equipment allows seam welding 12m diameter piles with multi head Submerged Arc welding and the ability to rotate the heads 90 degrees to weld circumferentially around the piles, both from the same platform. Bode provides external and internal welding equipment suitable for any length and any diameter. Our bespoke equipment is installed into most German Wind Tower yards. Please contact us for further information.

The all important M Number

Bode Parts

Bode has a unique method of controlling the many dozens of parts that make up a complete machine. Since 1950 we have created an extensive paper trail, with drawings and machine drawing schedules that are made for every type and size of machine ever made. Thanks to the Bode archives should you have a Bode machine requiring a part, we can create them for you. On each Bode machine you will find the all important M number. The M stands for Machine, followed by a 5 digit number. For example M 31338 From this we know what machine, Bode 5 HSW Seam Welder type 100-900 Who purchased it and when it was made in 1994. Every machine made has has the client’s purchase order details, that will have a technical specification. This machine, like all machines made, has a general assembly ( GA ) drawing number 42744004, and within shows more detailed drawings, or schedules of drawings. Each part then has yet another drawing that we use to make the spare for you. So if you own a Bode machine of any type, and require a spare part, no matter how small, then contact our Technical department. Call 01995 643210
