Lead Acid Battery Adaptive Resistance Welding

A number of factors contribute to resistance welding inconsistency, including: Inconsistent heat control Electrode force variations Part geometry/contact area variations Material hardness variations Oil on the part Other surface condition variations Conventional controls that apply the same heat regardless of what combination of prevailing conditions exists, result in inconsistent welds. When variations are severe enough, […]

WeldComputer Adaptive Control for Flash Welding

Adaptive control regulates consistency of flash weld process while reducing power consumption. Most flash welding operations have high scrap rates and and power consumption due to the complexity and demands of the application. WeldComputer(R) inverter controls reduce energy demands, while providing for more precise flashing control. By adding monitoring and adaptive capabilities, flashing distance and upset […]
