Testing welding force: a step to perfect
quality
John Morris Scientific presents the Kistler Welding Force Test Transmitter, to check the electrode clamping force on welding robots, and detect malfunctions earlier
John Morris Scientific presents the Kistler Welding Force Test Transmitter Defects in welding tongs or incorrect process parameters can result in manufacturing "rejects", or expensive after-weld machining of defective parts

John Morris Scientific is pleased to announce the new Kistler in-line charge to voltage converter, ideal for low-level vibration measurements and high temperature use
However, by periodically checking the electrode clamping force on welding robots, malfunctions can be detected in good time, maintenance work can be targeted and thus optimised, which in turn means that production can be made more efficient.
The Welding Force Test Transmitter model 9833A measures the force reliably and accurately at minimum electrode spacing.
In addition, damping elements on the bearings of the transmitter balance out differences in the position or impact movements of the welding tongs.
Generally, the force-sensing device is integrated into service stations where, in the same cycle, it is possible to machine the electrode caps, and check the welding current as well as the force.
