Innovatech designed Beam Champ to enhance easy beam access and improve operator safety for welding teams. This groundbreaking system sets a new standard in the steel industry, optimizing weld positioning and reducing risks associated with beam handling. Customers report experiencing a 20% gain in productivity since utilizing Beam Champ in their operation.
“At BZI and Innovatech, we are passionate about pushing the boundaries of innovation and increasing safety in construction," said Worth Bistline, Engineering Manager at Innovatech. "Beam Champ 30 is just one testament to our dedication to creating practical solutions for real-world needs."
Accessing all sides of a heavy steel beam for welding can be time-consuming and can threaten team members’ safety. While various rotator solutions have emerged, they have not addressed several practical needs, such as beam placement, removal, and secure positioning.
BZI and Innovatech’s proprietary Beam Champ® 30 beam-rotating system presents a new approach to solving these challenges. This patented system allows welding teams to access all sides of a beam more safely and efficiently. The Beam Champ 30 cradles the beam on a chain and rotates it within two or more Beam Champ units. This system offers several advantages over previous rotators, including a larger opening for beam placement and removal. Additionally, its Vertical Jaw Arm enables effortless insertion and removal, while the Support Arm holds the beam securely in place during welding or configuration.
