Spot welding is an exceptionally efficient process best suited for high-volume manufacturing, flexible for most metals and alloys. Companies specializing in this process use micro resistance spot welding link or connect two metallic parts. The application of electric current and mechanical pressure is the setting stone of this entire process.
The main feature of spot welding is that a lot of energy is concentrated to the spot in a very short time (around ten milliseconds). This way, the welding is done without causing excessive heating to the rest of the sheet. Companies offering specialized micro spot welder machine services provide guidance and assistance to ensure that you have selected the right equipment for your application.
You might think micro resistance spot welding industry is not lucrative, but indeed, it is. There are several examples on the applications of microwelding and microjoining in industry. An area you will find this technique prevalent is the automobile manufacturing industry. You will find parts in the automotive ignition module, battery pack connector, anti-lock brake system and automotive sensor printed circuit board among several others. The equipment used by Orthodontists is yet another example of small scale welding equipment application.
There are several benefits and limitations of Spot Welding. Beginning with the advantages this type of welding effectively utilizes energy with very little pollution. Mass production is possible within short cycle times. This is a completely automated process. At an instance, multiple sheets and dissimilar metals can be welded. As for the limitations, most metals can easily be welded; however, their application is limited to thin materials. The weld spots do not form a continuous seam so the tensile strengths might be lower.
For in-line or series soldering consider only fine spot weld heads. In case of automated applications, they are used with an air actuation system for reliable high speed performance. The results indeed are precise, consistent as per your requirements. This system guarantees a fast dynamic response that begins the weld control at the precise minute when the specified electrode force is applied to the work piece.
The typical applications of fine spot weld heads include small Electro-mechanical parts, battery pack assembly, electrical connectors, terminal connections, switch contacts and miniature lamps. Whatever your application or your requirement is the high performance and durability of these welding techniques is unmatched. This equipment provides a truly unique solution which otherwise is difficult or even impossible for joining applications.
