Why It’s Critical to Monitor Differential Cylinder Pressure

Bob Cohen MIL-SPEC, Resistance Welding Challenges

When performing resistance welding, electrode force impacts the size and strength of the welds produced. This force is controlled by differential cylinder pressure, meaning that monitoring this variable is another way to indirectly monitor the electrode force. Monitoring cylinder pressure has multiple use cases. It is often used to ensure: Down and up pressures are […]
