Guild International (Bedford, OH) has recently developed a new welding machine for joining coil ends on production lines producing cored wire. Known as the HMA Welder, this machine produces complete edge-to-edge welds on a variety of materials on all types of lines that are producing cored wire from flat strip. The HMA Welder is designed to accommodate a strip with widths from .250 in up to 3 in and thicknesses from .008 in up to .060 in.
The machine is fast and easy to use. A shear cuts the coil ends on a bias, creating a precise edge for welding. The weld station is designed to use start and stop tabs allowing the weld to cover the entire strip width. This allows the weld to pass through the line and remain in the wire. The HMA Welder also features swing weld clamps for easy viewing, an X-Y micrometer slide for torch adjustment, and optional roll planisher.
The entire weld process takes about 1-2 minutes, depending upon the size of the material. The welder is portable and compact, allowing it to be easily rolled between different lines. Guild International can supply sample welds on a customer's material to ensure suitability of the welder for the application.
