A welding head employs a carriage assembly for guiding the welding head along a track or guide. A torch assembly, mounted on the carriage assembly, is configurable for multiple welding processes. The torch assembly includes a torch block and a GTA filler wire guide mounted together on a mounting plate, whereby the GTA filler wire guide is placed in general proximity of a welding torch mounted on the torch block. The torch block accommodates the mounting of either of a GMA torch and a GTA torch. Additionally, the torch block accommodates placement of a GMA adapter sleeve within the torch block to feed a filler wire through the GMA torch. A system control unit provides manual, semi-automated, or automated control of welding system resources including a welding power supply, a supply of one or more shielding gasses, and a fluid coolant supply.

L~invention concerne une tête de soudage employant un ensemble de chariot permettant de guider la tête de soudage le long d~une piste ou d~un guide. Elle porte sur un ensemble de chalumeau, monté sur l~ensemble de chariot, configurable pour de multiples processus de soudage. L~ensemble de chalumeau comprend un bloc chalumeau et un guide de fil de matière d~apport GTA montés ensemble sur une plaque de montage, où le guide de fil de matière d~apport GTA est placé au voisinage d~un chalumeau monté sur le bloc chalumeau. Le bloc chalumeau permet le montage d~un chalumeau GMA ou d~un chalumeau GTA. De plus, le bloc chalumeau permet le placement d~une gaine d~adaptation GMA dans le bloc chalumeau pour faire passer un fil de matière d~apport dans le chalumeau GMA. Une unité de commande de système permet une commande manuelle, semi-automatique ou automatique de ressources de système de soudage comprenant une alimentation de soudage, une arrivée d~un ou de plusieurs gaz de protection et une arrivée de fluide réfrigérant.
