  • Patent number: 6906276
    Abstract: The invention relates to a control device for spot welding with a welding electrode pincer (Z), the welding electrodes (E1, E2) of which are connect to a welding current generator (IS) and an electric motor drive (M), with a rotary transducer (RES), the signal of which is used by a control device (MP) to control the welding electrode pincer (Z). The closed state of said pincer holds the objects for welding (B1, B2) together, by means of a pre-set motor current (MAI), whereupon the welding current generator (IS) is activated. The control device (MP) comprises monitoring devices (const, max), to which the rotary transducer signals (RES) and/or a motor current measured signal (I(t)) are constantly supplied. Once a quasi-constant state is recognized, following a close signal for the welding electrode pincer (Z), a corresponding first state is recorded as the closed state and the welding current generator (IS) activated.

  • Patent number: 4916931
    Abstract: In apparatus according to the present invention, re-forming takes place in a single operation. The forming device contains a die extended by a hollow cylindrical die area and includes a punch which is surrounded by an outer punch which is advanced under the tension of a spring and fits into the hollow cylindrical die area. A conical centering area is located upstream of the hollow cylindrical die area. Used spot welding electrodes of different lengths and pronounced deformation can be restored several times with this forming tool.
