  • Patent number: 10543550
    Abstract: A pressure welding method and a pressure welding device (1) are provided. The pressure welding device (1) includes a plastification device (7), an upsetting device (8) and component mountings (34,35,36,37) for the components (2,3,3?,4) to be welded together and a machine frame (12). The pressure welding device (1) further includes a plurality of machine heads (13,14), each having a component mount (34,35), which machine heads are movably arranged on the machine frame and are connected to respective upsetting drives (22). The machine heads (13,14) and respective upsetting drives (22) can be independently driven. An upsetting head or support head (27), which is preferably secured on the frame, is arranged between the machine heads (13,14).

    Abstract: A pressure welding method and to a pressure welding device (1) are provided. The pressure welding device (1) includes a plastification device (7), an upsetting device (8) and component mountings (34, 35, 36, 37) for the components (2, 3, 3?, 4) to be welded together and a machine frame (12). The pressure welding device (1) includes a machine head (13) which is arranged so as to move on the machine frame (12). The machine head (13) includes a rotatable spindle (54) and a component mounting element (34, 35) as well as an associated spindle drive (56). The machine head (13, 14) and the spindle drive (56) are separated from each other on the machine frame (12). A controllable mass decoupling (79) including an axially tolerant coupling (80), is arranged in the drive train (57) between the fixed or moveable spindle drive (56) arranged on the machine frame (12).

  • Patent number: 9802269
    Abstract: A pressure welding method is provided and a pressure welding machine (1) is provided with a frame (10), two welding heads (13, 14), mobile along a feed axis (41), and two adjusting units (17, 18). The adjusting units (17, 18) include feed drives (23) for the welding heads (13, 14). The two adjusting units (17, 18) are mounted so as to be axially movable (41) on the frame (10) and are interlinked with an adjusting drive (25) by means of a common adjusting element (26) and supported in a closed system of forces while receiving the pressure welding forces, thereby relieving the frame (10). The common adjusting element (26) is configured as a continuous spindle (27) having two self-locking threads (28, 29) that run in opposite directions.
