The CD Process

The CD Process The capacitors are charged. The stud pip is placed in contact with the work sheet. Upon triggering, the stored energy is discharged as a high current pulse melting the pip and producing an arc. Return spring pressure forces the stud into the molten surface area to give complete fusion across the flange. The Stud is welded in place. No back-marking or burn discoloration. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Process CD is ideal for thin gauge; cold rolled sheet where reverse marking can be minimized or eradicated. Penetration into the work piece is minimal. Parent Material For CD the sheet can be as thin as 0.7mm. Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminium Alloy and Lead Free Brass. Sheet surfaces should be clean and flat. Stud weld end must have precise pip and cone Equipment CD controllers are lightweight and hand portable. Lower cost than Short Cycle and Drawn Arc. Single phase 230/110 volt 50H Advantages Low stud costs. Low cost equipment. The fast process Ideal for production systems from simple bench mounted to high speed automatic CNC. Easy to jig. No ferrules. No shrouding gas-clean welds. No finishing
