1. GENERAL

The following specification covers the standard range of the BRIDGEMASTER® Arc Spray System.
For the specific offer, please refer to your quotation and cross reference the part numbers for
each piece of equipment.

2. BENEFITS

 Big Wire Capabilities: Aluminum, Zinc and Zinc/Aluminum wires, 1/8”(3.2 mm) and 3/16” (4.8
mm) in diameter are routinely sprayed
 Small Wire Capabilities: Small wire [1/16” (1.6 mm) , 3/32” (2.3 mm)] can also be sprayed
 Combination Leads: Combination leads combine the spray wire, power lead, and atomizing air
into a single, flexible, lightweight lead
 Arc-Shorting Control: Arc-shorting control eliminates wire shorting inherent to the arc-spray
process
 Fan Spray: Provides a wide spray pattern for high production work
 Air Sweep: Allows the operator to air sweep surface prior to spraying
 Power Supply Choices: Lightweight Inverters or Conventional DC welding power supplies
 Flexible: Modular design accommodates easy adaptation to the needs of the job shop

6.1 Technical Features

The Bridgemaster Feeder has been updated with many new features including a newly
designed precision wire drive, a spool shield, shield cover and a new feeder cabinet
design that will make it easier to upgrade in the future

The new precision drives are designed with bolt on components to ease future
maintenance steps. Drive pins are also easier to replace as they are secured with a
screw. All parts are CNC machined.

The new TMS Bridgemaster proprietary drive has a tension knob that allows the
operator to preset the tension and lock it in place, so after a spool change you can
easily return to the original tension. The new drive assemblies are also designed to
accommodate optional bolt on wire straighteners.

The new design cabinet is slightly bigger and the base plate has been extended to
create a lesser angle as the wire feeds off of the spool. This reduces friction as the wire
enters the feeder.

Quality TMS spool spindles are included. These feature quick release spool stops that
are self contained – no parts to drop or misplace.

The cabinet doors lift up and are removable for ease of feeder maintenance and the
wiring harness has been moved overhead for increased reliability.
