I’ve used copper tape, in a similar way to flex seal just on the side of the shank that is leaking, then tapped on the caps and it’s stopped the leak. If you don’t have the shanks in stock, it helps keep the water from flooding the floor while the parts are in order.
The HSEC and PSEC lockouts are programmable bits within the I/O bit assignments. Depending on the model weld control you have, it may be necessary to move a physical jumper on one of the circuit boards to gain access to the I/O. I don’t know how these bits got assigned to start with. However, you may want to call WTC directly at (248) 477-3900.
We bought one of these along with the appropriate blades and the chatter on ours is terrible. Is the blade supposed to be able to move side to side in the holder? I've got everything as tight as I can get it and the blade moves side to side in the holder. Id imagine thats why were getting so much chatter. Makes it completely unusable.
The blade is designed to "float" inside the chuck. This is normal. Be sure you are using the correct guide ring for the cap/electrode. Using the incorrect ring could cause excessive chatter. If you have other questions, please give us a call (423) 894-6234. Thanks!
Normally CD Welding is doing projection welding. So with a steel sheet, you would want dimples as the projection. When welding a bracket to a sheet (for example) it is common to add the projections to the bracket, since it is already being stamped.
Not this control. What you are asking about is a control with cascade firing capability. We would usually suggest an Entron or WTC brand controller in that application. TJ SNOW sells many brands of resistance welding controls. Contact us for help (and a quote) matching your application to the right welding control.
Sorry, we can't really help figure out a weld schedule via comments on youtube. It is just not the right platform for all the back and forth that is required.
Squeeze time is the delay between when you start the weld sequence and when the welder starts passing current. This time is needed to allow the tips to fully close and full pressure (squeeze) to be built before current gets passed. If squeeze time is too short, you get inconsistent welds or weld blow-outs. If too long, you just get a delay before the weld cycle continues.
Thank you for the question! No, the discharge time cannot be adjusted. Once you start the weld (open the flood gates to the energy) the energy flow is a result of the charging voltage of the capacitors and the physical characteristics of the welder. The one exception is multipulse capacitor discharge resistance welding machines, which consist of several banks of capacitors that can be charged to different levels and then released in a “cascade” to prolong or shape the current through the weld. Or they can be released all at the same time to act like a conventional CD resistance welder.
I just picked up a used (older) Dayton 110v spot welder off of Craigslist and am going through it today to make sure all oxidation is removed. These units are simple, but do need to be kept up.
Can I come work at your company 😮 I was a spotwelder at a engineering company in South Africa, Port Elizabeth spotwelding brkt to body. Nut to body ,projection welding and assembling exhaust parts magnetti Marelli .VW, BMW., Toyota.
my maintenance guy just finished hook up this control, it welded material crs .062x.590 no problem, but on the screen showing ER20, ER22, ER30 I checked on the manual book for error codes i still don't get it how to fix these problems. can you help me walk to it how to fix these problems. i'm newbie for spot welding machine. i working at Dudek & Bock we have Entron EN1701 and Entron UK this unit EN6001 is new for me. please help. thanks A.K.
And, to provide more detail on your exact issue: Error 20 is Low Current 1 fault Error 22 is Low Current 2 fault Error 30 is Low Pulse width fault Unless you are actively trying to use the limits I would suggest turning them off. I1 Monitor to off I2 Monitor to off PW2 monitor to off If you have more questions, please feel free to contact us directly via phone or email. That is easier then working through video comments! 😀
what was the point of the video? it explains nothing, anyone looking into this understands what AC and DC is, if you want to a useful info, then talk about differences in the welding process itself, efficiency, equipment cost, show examples of both weld processes, not talk about something that children in school already know
Fair input. This series of videos is the "shorts" format, so there is limited info you can cover in 60 seconds. Thank you for the suggestion on a follow-up video!
If you do not cool your electrodes, they will get very hot and quickly mushroom, changing the weld face diameter, which will then also change the weld being produced.
