Designed for use in automation or benchtop welding, AMADA WELD TECH's Model 73 and Model 73-Z weld heads offer fast, repeatable electrode motion control for a wide range of resistance welding applications. The Model 73 weld head is an easy-to-program, stateof-the-art servo motor controller that allows precise programming of electrode position and speed for up to 31 different weld schedules. The 73-Z pincer weld head has self centering electrode clamping and floating mechanism to ensure the part is centered between the electrodes every time.
Programmable speed and positions
Controlled servo motor actuation eliminates overforce
Force range 15 lbs to 110 lbs.
Durable and robust head design
Displacement and force options
Remote control I/O and PC communication
Machine builder module – a module option without a lower electrode or extrusion provides convenient machine mounting
Fast follow-up – less weld splash, more consistent welds
Easy programming – fast, efficient schedule adjustment
“Soft-touch” part clamping – minimizes impact force – allows verification of part alignment prior to welding
The “Home” position allows for easy access during maintenance.
The electrode is in the “Upstop” position in the “Ready” state.
The first level of the footswitch moves the electrode down to the “Search” position at a programmable “Soft-touch” speed.
The second level of the footswitch applies the pre-set welding force, with no overforce.
The programmable “Downstop” inhibits welding if parts are not present.
