Resistance Welding

RT – RL

SEAM RESISTANCE WELDING
ENABLES TO OBTAIN WATER TIGHT SEAM WELDING
RT–RL Seam welders range are standard supplied for monophase mains connection. Three phase versions, also with Medium Frequency inverter (1000 Hz), are available for special applications. The wide range of equipment configurations enables water tight seam welding of cylinders, fire extinguishers, radiators, tanks and similar items with excellent quality results.

Resistance Seam Welding
Seamwelding technology
Seam welding is a welding process by electric resistance. In such joining process overlapped metals are welded under pressure by a sequence of spots made by copper alloy rotating discs. Depending on the choice of the parameters, such as spot frequency and rotation speed of the electrodes, two typical joints are usually achieved.

Other Characteristics

  • RT version for transversal welding only
  • RL version for longitudinal welding only
  • Water cooled seam heads with silver contacts
  • Reduced maintenance costs
  • Self-lubricated pneumatic components
  • Frequency converter to adjust the welding speed of the discs
