Electroweld Industries

Electroweld industries is a leading manufacturer of resistance welding equipment, serving the industry for over 45 years. Our welding machines are designed to provide a production solution at an affordable price while ensuring reliability and low cost maintenance.

Applications: 

• Electroweld Wire Butt Welders are specially designed for the wire and cable processing industry. This welder is used for butt welding of ferrous and non-ferrous wires in the range of 0.3mm - 3.8 mm diameter.

• These machines are designed as table models and constructed with a particular regard to quick and easy operation. The welding process being automatic requires minimal training for operators and ensures uniform welds of high tensile strength, capable of withstanding subsequent drawing.
• Construction The Electroweld Micro Wire Butt Welders are designed as portable models on moveable trolley stand, with spring loaded clamping devices, and foot pedal release Main body, housing the welding transformer, fixed and moveable platens, constructed from light alloy. Each machine is mounted on a wheeled trolley type stand provided with brakes. All machines are equipped with annealing facility.
• Upset Travel: Movable platen travel on two parallel guides.
• Upset Pressure: Provided by a precision spring action on the movable platen.
• Electrodes: Special wear resistant copper alloy electrodes provided with precision'V'grooves, permit rapid and accurate alignment of wires.
• Current Initiation: Automatic, current make and break via incorporated magnetic contactor. Current initiation effected by a manual push button fitted on one side of the fixed platen and current cut off effected automatically in relation to the preset upsetting distance Separate annealing electrodes for annealing of the welded wire is provided.
• Weld Current Adjustment: Adjustment of welding current by 8 position rotary switch.

Welding Process

• The ends of the wires to be joined are 'prepared' on the special shearing attachment (optional).
• Welding current and initial up-set gap set according to the size of wire, the up-setting pressure being preset at the factory.
• The wire ends are rigidly clamped by special quick acting clamps and viewed through an illuminated magnifying glass (optional), to ensure correct alignment of the wire ends.
• By pushing the button, butt welding cycle is initiated and completed automatically by built-in controls.
• Weld completed, the job is then de-clamped and annealed in the annealing device (optional), if necessary.
