Spot welding machine Miyachi

The AWS3 Active Welding System controls the well-known MFP motorized weld heads and pincer
heads as well as the ISQ inverter family. The AWS3 with its bus interface is easy to integrate into
machines and existing systems.

The complete system is an integrated solution providing process control, monitoring and quality
analysis all in one.
AWS3's multi-lingual user interface as well as operating concept is highly straightforward and
has an intelligent design: status line, menu bar and interactive user guide with context help. This
guarantees a quick and easy use of the system.
Another AWS3 advantage is the combined CF/MD interface (CompactFlashTM, MDTM) for storing
parameters, system confi guration, data logging, screenshots and more.

Integrated Process Control
The device offers integrated process control for all electrical and mechanical welding parameters,
i.e. for current, voltage, power, time, force and distance. The quality of the welding process is
considerably improved thanks to this extremely fast digital control of the parameters.

Integrated Monitoring
Production monitoring of AWS3 is realized trough data logging, static and dynamic monitoring,
troubleshooting, fault history and statistical process control (SPC). Process stability can be analysed
using histogram and run-chart screens.

Integrated Quality Analysis
Reliable quality assurance is guaranteed by reference waveform management and process analysis
with SPC.

The Operator Panel
The AWS3 panel is very user-friendly due to the one-button toggle wheel concept. It features a
graphical colour display, status LEDs and a memory card (CompactFlashTM, MDTM). Various
operating languages are available.
