Spin Welder

The Model SW200 Spin Welder is a precision servo-driven spin welding system capable of welding circular parts with accurate control. It's easy to set up and operate. The spin welder is designed for use in manual, semi-automated, or fully-automated environments. A free-standing operator interface allows for the following adjustments: revolutions per minute (RPM), revolutions per cycle (RPC), and hold time (HT). The controllers also monitors RPMs, RPCs, and motor torque for quality control reporting.

Spin welding is a process that joins circular thermoplastic parts by bringing the part interfaces together, under pressure, with a circular, spinning motion. One part is held stationary in a fixture, while the other is rotated against it under pressure. The frictional heat that is generated causes the part interfaces to melt and fuse together, creating a strong, hermetic seal.

Key Features and Benefits

• Servo drive provides final part orientation within 1 in.
• Motor torque monitoring ensures consistent weld results.
• Precise RPM control maintains constant velocity.
• Adjustable RPC (revolutions per weld cycle). This provides for consistent weld results.
• Rapid deceleration provides high-strength bonds.
• Adjustable hold time.
• Adjustable height (18 ft.) and stroke (up to 3.4 in.) provide ease of setup.
• Optional dual stroke cylinder facilitates part loading for automated systems.

Other Features

• Dual non-tie-down palm buttons with emergency stop to ensure safe operation.
• Ergonomic base.
