Built around a water-cooling system and a fully automatic operating mode, the AW-Tong runs on the same <em>CTR9<\/em> parameters that technicians already rely on and is fully compatible with the <em>CTR9<\/em>, allowing body shops to add the tool to their existing welding setup without changing their workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith the AW-Tong, we have combined the speed and precision technicians expect from the CTR9 platform with a water-cooled, fully automatic system that keeps pace with high-volume body shop production,\u201d said Doug Bortz, manager, collision sales, North America, <em>Car-O-Liner<\/em>. \u201cThe swiveling, ergonomic handle lets a technician hold the tool in a comfortable, efficient position no matter the angle of the repair, while the system handles calibration, thickness measurement and parameter selection on its own, so every weld comes out consistent and reliable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fully automatic mode, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bbZgSNAgGN0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AW-Tong<\/a> calibrates itself, verifying that everything is working correctly to begin welding. As the tool is guided around the weld area, it automatically measures the thickness and type of material, sets the appropriate welding parameters, then displays the weld results directly in the CTR9 control, giving technicians a clear, real-time record of the weld they just completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AW-Tong\u2019s water-cooling system is designed to keep the tool running at high operational efficiency and reliability, helping it sustain heavier workloads. The AW-Tong has a different electrode orientation than the C-Arms allowing it to access certain areas that those arms cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <em>Car-O-Liner<\/em>&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/car-o-liner.com\/en-us\/product\/ctr9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CTR9<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;fully automatic welder features a lightweight transformer gun with a 355\u00b0 swivel handle and an ergo-grip design, enabling users to maintain ideal working positions for any task. The two separate adjustments mean the arm can be placed where it needs to be to access the weld, but the handle is set separately ensuring a comfortable grip for the technician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CONWAY, Ark. \u2013 July 20, 2026 &nbsp;\u2013 The new Car-O-Liner\u00ae AW-Tong is the ideal accessory for the Car-O-Liner CTR\u00ae9 resistance spot welder.
