TalonTM 2000
The TalonTM 2000 - McElroy's biggest machine to date - brings a
revolutionary new way to fuse large-diameter, thermoplastic pipe that
is in growing demand to replace aging infrastructures and increase
capacity for a variety of today's applications.
The Talon 2000 is a self-propelled vehicle with the unique ability to
safely lift pipe from the ground, position it to be fused and move from
joint to joint down the pipe-line. It features a quick-action facer and
an electric-powered indexer to accurately and safely position the
heater and facer into the fusion machine.
