On display in Booth # 2238 is the UB29A linear DC micro welder with a Series 320 Electronic Weld Head and ADAM resistance weld monitoring technology; the LMWS Pulsed Fiber Laser Processing System integrated with the LMF70-HP fiber laser; as well as the MC-1301 wire compactor with STA-100A AC weld control.
The UB29A linear DC micro welder on display is a new model that provides a larger current range, greater control, and markedly faster rise time for micro-miniature resistance welding.
Featuring closed-loop feedback, fast response times and a controlled precise energy waveform, the new UB29A is ideal for safety-critical applications in battery markets, as well as medical, aerospace, precision electronics, and automotive applications.
It will be shown with a Series 320 Electronic Weld Head (model 321), a versatile weld head that is a good choice for welding squib wires, fine wire welding, and welding of wires to electrodes, as well as welding of hearing aid components, electronic components, and medical devices.
The system on display includes ADAM monitoring technology, which offers SPC capabilities that enable customers to analyse and collect weld data.
The LMWS Pulsed Fiber Laser Welding System on display is a highly configurable, compact unit designed for lean manufacturing.
LMWS Pulsed Fiber Laser Welding System
Featuring a versatile high-power, high-speed laser, the system is ideal for welding dissimilar metals, including copper to aluminium, aluminium to stainless and steel, and copper to stainless steel.
By simply changing the settings, this laser can even be used to mark welded parts. It will be shown with the LMF70-HP fibre laser, ideal for micro spot welding, seam welding and precision cutting.
This configuration is a good choice for medical spring attachment and medical component assembly, as well as battery tab welding.
Also on display is the MC-1301 wire compactor, specifically designed for solid and stranded wire welding applications, including wire welding, wire harness welding, compacting of stranded wires prior to welding, and multiple wire assemblies.
The compacting mechanism produces a solid fused weld joint with single or multiple parts.
The system utilises either an AC or inverter welding power supply and a stacked cylinder design that permits a wide range of force control.
It will be displayed with the STA-100A AC welder, a single phase spot weld control, designed to control and integrate projection welders, press welders, multi-gun machines, portable guns, seam welders, robotic systems, rocker arm welders and special purpose machines.
