The TracStar™ 1200 is a self-propelled, track-mounted pipe butt fusion machine designed for fusing pipe from 16" OD to 48" OD (450mm to 1200mm). It features a welded steel frame, rubber crawler tracks with a low speed of 1.1 mph and high speed of 1.4 mph, and an on-board generator powering a 35,000-watt heater and hydraulic facer. The machine includes a removable 3- or 4-jaw carriage, hydraulic outriggers, dual hydraulic pipe lifts, and a 74HP (55kW) 2.8L turbocharged diesel engine compliant with US EPA Tier 4f and EU Stage IIIB without requiring diesel exhaust fluid. Its dimensions are 162" (4114mm) long, 110" (2794mm) wide, and 100" (2540mm) high in the main vehicle configuration. Total machine weight with fluids is 14,860 lbs (6740.4 kg).
The self-contained machine features an on-board generator for powering the heater and facer, which is now positioned between the fixed jaws for easier pipe transfer. The carriage can be easily removed for in-ditch use. The engine is available with advanced emission control technology that meets the EPA's latest Tier 4 standards, without the need for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). An Auto TracStar 1200 is available upon request.
