WeldComputer engaged with an Ohio-based automotive parts manufacturer responsible for welding critical components for Autoliv, the largest airbag inflator manufacturer. The company was destructively testing 50% of its production components due to inconsistent weld performance but was unable to identify the root cause or solve the issues until they consulted WeldComputer’s experts. With the WeldView […]
H&H Resistance Welders, with nearly 50 years of experience, designs and manufactures American-made welding equipment from its facility in Afton, Oklahoma. A challenge arose with TNT Rebar, a construction contractor in Colton, CA, using an H&H Flash welding machine with high power consumption. To address this, modern WeldComputer Adaptive Control replaced the standard SCR control, […]
Danville Metal Stamping Company, a leader in aerospace and gas turbine industries, faced welding inconsistencies threatening their ability to take on a complex new welding job. With WeldComputer’s adaptive control solution, they achieved precise welds, saving time and costs. This success led to extending adaptive technology across their operation, ensuring high standards. The collaborative partnership […]
Lincoln Industrial was experiencing weld quality issues on a projection welded part. Their 50% failure rate prompted them to request an onsite visit from WeldComputer resistance welding experts to determine the root causes and find a solution. Read the study to find out how they were able to reduce the weld failure rate by more […]

A construction contractor in California was using a flash welder at 400 amps using a standard current meter clamped on the L1 power feed. The Adaptive Control, using the same clamp-on meter on L1 now measures 60 amps on the same weld.
Lincoln Industrial
Lincoln Industrial was experiencing a 50% failure rate on a part that was projection welded on a Federal Frequency converter press-type weld machine, equipped with a Unitrol control. Read how WeldComputer used the WeldView Portable Monitor to determine the root causes of the issues, and an Adaptive Control to solve the issues.
This manufacturer was destructively testing 50% of its production components due to inconsistent weld performance but was unable to identify the root cause or solve the issues. WeldComputer helped them significantly decrease rework and scrap costs, as well as improve efficiency. Read how it happened and how they saw a return on investment in just […]
This $20B+ American multi-national power management and manufacturing company noticed increasing levels of variability and inconsistency with their welds. WeldComputer conducted an on-site visit to analyze performance of production operation, implement strategies, and provide recommendations to improve consistency, reduce the incidence of problem welds, and reduce or completely eliminate destructive testing.
Allied-Signal Aerospace Company wanted to eliminate destructive testing. To get approval, they conducted capability testing utilizing a WeldComputer Control. The study demonstrated that the capability of the tested material far exceeded the required 99.5% level and approval was granted to eliminate destructive testing. For details, read the study.
This report establishes that the resistance welding process, as controlled and monitored by WeldComputer’s equipment, is sufficiently reliable to allow the substitution of nondestructive evaluation for destructive testing.
