Capacitor discharge spot welding / DR Series

Capacitor Discharge Spot Welders

The DR series stores electrical energy in capacitors and releases it through the welding transformer for short-duration resistance spot and projection welding.

  • Short-duration stored-energy discharge
  • Stable repeatable energy delivery
  • Touch interface with weld counting
  • Overheat and fault alerts

Final configuration is reviewed against your workpiece, joint and production target.
