Orbital Service RC Mini Wireless Remote Control
The Orbital Service RC Mini is a wireless remote control designed for mobile operation, programming, and documentation of orbital welding processes. Built around a compact 7-inch Windows touchscreen interface, the RC Mini allows operators to manage key welding functions remotely without direct interaction at the power source.
Designed for use with Orbital Service CompactDual and BasicPlus orbital welding systems, the RC Mini acts as a mobile operator interface for welding program creation, process monitoring, and parameter management. Its intuitive software allows users to create and transfer welding programs directly to the welding machine, while also supporting the documentation and review of welding parameters throughout the welding process.
Wireless communication between the RC Mini and the orbital welding system is handled through Bluetooth Class 1 technology, providing reliable long-range data transmission in production and field environments. This gives operators the flexibility to control and monitor the welding process remotely while maintaining communication with the machine.
With a modular software architecture, customizable interface settings, and integrated documentation functionality, the RC Mini is designed to improve operator mobility, simplify orbital welding system control, and support efficient weld process management in industrial applications.
