Equipment Type




   Equipment Type:       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Complete System
 
     Complete welding systems include brazing, cutting, soldering and/or surfacing subsystems. They also include a power source or station; a torch, iron or gun; cables, feeders, and positioners; robots; and other required components.
 
   Power Source / Station
 
     Power sources or power stations are power supplies with a soldering iron, tungsten inert gas (TIG) gun, metal inert gas (MIG) gun, electrode holder, laser, electron beam gun, or other joining unit. The required output power is enough to melt the material. Welding power supplies are sometimes called welding power sources. Soldering power supplies are called soldering stations.
 
   Gun / Iron
 
     Irons, torches, or guns provide a point-source of heat for melting solder or filler alloys at a joint or interface. Typically, soldering irons are heated using electrical resistance. Gas torch or hot air-heated irons are also available, and are useful in plumbing or field applications where an electrical power source is not available. Gas burning, oxyfuel, and plasma torches are also used in brazing and welding applications.
 
   Monitor / Controller
 
     Monitor / controller equipment is used for sensing joint quality (size or integrity), gap, position, or output power supply variations. Controllers are also used to adjust parameters in order compensate for variations in joint quality or output power.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted equipment types.

Process Capability




   Frictional / Specialty Processes:      In stud arc welding, the conventional welding stick or wire is replaced with a threaded fastener stud. The stud fits into the end of specialized stud-welding gun. An arc is struck between the fastener stud and the workpiece that fuses the stud to the workpiece surface. Drawn arc, capacitive discharge, internal resistance or other processes are used to generate an arc or fuse metal. Similar processes can be applied to weld a thread nut to a work piece.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Friction Welder (Inertia / Rotary)
 
     In friction welding, workpieces are heated by the relative motion between the surfaces. Often, one or more workpieces are rotated at high speed and then pressed together until the interface reaches the welding temperature. Friction welding is considered a solid-state welding process because the work surface is not normally fused. The friction welding mechanisms are more closely aligned with a forge-welding process.
 
   Gas Torch
 
     Gas torch brazing uses a combustible fuel gas such as propane and air or oxygen to heat the workpiece and melt the braze filler alloy. The molten braze alloy wets and flows across the heated work surface. Temperatures are normally high so that a metallurgical bond can be formed, but fusion of the workpiece does not normally occur.
 
   Hot Rod / Iron
 
     The brazing and soldering process uses a heated rod or iron to heat the work surface and melt the solder filler-alloy. The molten solder wets and flows across the heated work surface.
 
   Laser Welding
 
     Laser welding uses a laser beam to melt the workpiece. Laser beams provide a very narrow, concentrated energy source that melts a narrow region; this results in a minimal heat-affected zone. The welds can be made without filler metals or consumable electrodes.
 
   Ultrasonic / Linear Friction
 
     In ultrasonic or linear friction welding, the workpieces are heated by the ultrasonic vibration or reciprocating linear-motion between the surfaces. The workpieces are clamped under moderately high forces between a welding tip and anvil. An ultrasonic transducer is coupled to the welding tip. Ultrasonic welding is considered a solid-state welding process because the work surface is not normally fused. The process can be used to join dissimilar metals and plastics.
 
   Other Welding Processes
 
     Fusion, friction, or other welding processes not listed here.

Input Power




   AC Voltage & Frequency:       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   115 / 120V 60 Hz
 
     Devices are rated for 115/120-V 60-Hz power.
 
   208-230 / 240V 60 Hz
 
     Devices are rated for 208 - 230 / 240-V 60-Hz power.
 
   460 / 480V 60 Hz
 
     Devices are rated for 460 / 480-V 60-Hz power.
 
   575 / 600V 60 Hz
 
     Devices are rated for 575 / 600-V 60 Hz power.
 
   50 Hz / International Power
 
     Devices are rated for 50-Hz or other international voltage levels.

   Phase       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Single-phase
 
     Single-phase power is the standard for commerical and residential applications. The term "single-phase" means one sinusoidal or other alternating-voltage pattern.
 
   Three-phase
 
     Three-phase power contains three simultaneous, sinusoidal or other alternating-voltage patterns, typically 120° out of phase with each other. Higher power efficiency and smoothness of operation are possible with three-phase operation. Three-phase power is used most often for industrial or high-power motors.

Features & Technology




           
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Automated (Robot / CNC)
 
     The machine has an integral or optional automation unit, such as a robot or CNC table.
 
   Marine Duty / Corrosion Resistant
 
     Machines are designed for applications which require resistance to water or corrosion. Examples include shipyards, mines, paper mills, chemical plants, oil fields, underwater welding, bridges, or offshore drilling platforms.
 
   Multi-operator
 
     The welder is capable of supplying multiple operators.
 
   Programmable / Recall
 
     The machine can recall settings or allow the operator to program specific sets or sequences of parameters.
 
   Pulsed Feeding
 
     The machine has a pulsed wire, powder, or filler feeding capability.
 
   Remote Control
 
     Machine can be controlled remotely with a pendant, foot pedal, or other remote control unit. The remote control can allow the operator to have an additional hand free for holding or positioning.
 
   Water Cooled
 
     The machine can use a supply of water to maintain the welding, cutting gun, or other unit components at a lower temperature in order improve the duty-cycle and reduce component over-heating or erosion.
