Stud
welding replaces more traditional stud mounting technologies which
often involve pre-punching, drilling, thread cutting, screw connection,
stick welding, threaded inserts, etc. Thus, stud welding
is an economical fastening method for many sectors of industry.
Stud
Welding Is Easy Fast
User Friendly
-
It saves
a great deal of money and time
-
It increases
productivity
-
It promotes
competitiveness
Take
advantage of the benefits:
-
Significant
cost reductions in your production thanks to instantaneous, high-quality
welding of threaded and unthreaded studs, tapped studs, shear connectors,
anchoring systems, etc. from 1/8" to 1 1/4" diameters onto sheet metal,
pipes,sections, etc.
-
No distortion
thanks to low influence of heat.
-
Hollow
pieces remain leakproof.
-
The component
needs to be accessible from one side only.
-
The stud
welding systems and welding studs meet the highest quality requirements.
Here are the two basic types
of stud welding:
1. Drawn Arc Stud
Welding (with process variations)
Stud welding with ceramic
ferrule, inert gas stud welding, short cycle stud welding. The drawn
arc stud welding method allows welding of studs 1/8" to 1 1/4" diameter
made of non-alloyed, alloyed, stainles and heat-resistant steels to suitable
base materials.
2. Capacitor
Discharge Stud Welding This process is suitable for
welding 12 gauge through 5/16" diameter studs made of non-alloyed and stainless
steel, aluminum and brass. Learn more about
capacitor discharge stud welding here.
The chart below shows additional
details on these processes, stud limits, material or plate thickness limitations,
and welding positions.

Capacitor discharage
stud welding
Mainly used for stud connections
with thin sheet metals. Welding without marking or deforming the
reverse-side of the sheet. |
