Ultra dynamic, flexible application and minimum retooling times
The ‘Quickchange’ process modules D1Q, D2Q, D3Q are designed for welding contact material from semifinished products. Profile shapes include round wire, profiled strips, rectangular strips and sheet plates made from all weldable contact material alloys, such as Au, Ag, Pd, Pt, etc. Further areas of application include resistance soldering.
Complete modular systems
The D1Q, D2Q, D3Q units are complete systems with a modular concept. They cover all of the required process steps right through to the finished welded contact element, including contact feeding, transport, cutting and positioning.
All processing steps in one system
Decisive advantages
Highest production speeds
- up to 800 welds/min. possible
Minimum retooling time
- Change of contact length (cutting length) in < 1 minute
- Electrode change in < 2 minutes through preset electrode subassemblies (pin electrode, profile electrode, turntable)
- Change to another contact size in < 10 minutes
- Change to another contact shape (e.g. profiled strip to round wire) in < 20 minutes thanks to modular concept
Flexible use
- Processing of round wire and profiled wire with one gripper system
- Blade cutting and electrode cutting with one gripper system
- Variable electrode holder to cover different applications
User-friendly handling
- Feeder length: variable settings are possible via stop bar (compatible devices, can be replaced without disassembling other parts)
- Infinitely adjustable weld pressure
- Spring preload setting can be read directly off the scale
- Electrode opening measurement: quick and flexible Setting via eccentric tappet or change part
- Lateral guide (electrode arm): easy and infinite adjustment via eccentric tappet
- Full compatibility with older generations of contact welding units
- Rapid-clamp devices for media feed and measuring lines
Maximum quality for reliable production
Preset subassemblies, change parts and corresponding setting gauges
- Recording of actual welding voltage (measurement position close to welding electrode)
- High quality tools, change parts and documentation for service and maintenance in clearly organised ‘stackable box’
- Precise and reliable horizontal feed of semifinished products
- High wear resistance of all active parts (TIN coatings, carbide materials)
- Protected voltage measuring lines (integrated in electrode arm)
- Defined lubrication points (for easy service and maintenance)
Electrode cutting with round wire
Contact material feed – Contact element cut with welding electrode – Subsequent positioning on the carrier material – Welding process.
Blade cutting with profiled strips
Contact material feed – Contact element cut with blade – Transport in welding electrode and vacuum holding – Subsequent positioning on the carrier material – Welding process.
Contact transport with rectangular strips
Contact material feed – Contact element cut with blade – Position-precise feed of the contact part via transport system to welding point – Subsequent positioning on the carrier material – Welding process.
Special applications (on request)
- For profiled strips and round wires that are welded longitudinally (in the feed direction) onto the carrier material.
- For externally fed sheet plates (individual contact elements).
- For microcontacts
