Rim Flash Butt Welding Machine: Infusing precision and reliability into rim welding

In the manufacturing process of automotive rims, the Rim Flash Butt Welding Machine, with its exclusive design for the rim structure, has become a key device to ensure the strength and precision of the rims. It not only possesses the core Butt Welding function of the Butt Welding Machine, but also demonstrates unparalleled professionalism in the welding of the specific workpiece, the rim.

Compared with the Friction Welding Machine that generates heat through friction, the rim flash butt welding machine achieves precise fusion of the rim interface through the flash process, which can better control the roundness of the rim after welding and avoid the interface offset that may occur due to friction welding. This is crucial for the dynamic balance performance of the rim. Spot Welding machines are mostly used for point connection of thin plates, while rim flash butt welding machines focus on the overall welding of rim annular interfaces, ensuring that the rim can withstand huge centrifugal force when rotating at high speed.

On the production line of rims, it has different focuses from the Seam Welding Machine: The seam welding machine can be used for the welding of the connection seams between the rim and other components, while the rim flash butt welding machine specializes in the annular butt welding of the rim itself. The two jointly construct the stable structure of the rim. for the Welding of Steel Ring workpieces, the Laser Welding Machine for Steel Ring excels in high precision. However, for the welding of workpieces like rims with specific curvatures, the rim flash butt welding machine is more adaptable to their structural characteristics and ensures the stability of welding quality.

When some small components need to be installed on the rim, the Stud Welding Machine can quickly fix the studs, while the rim flash butt welding machine remains at the position of welding the main body of the rim to ensure the core structural strength of the rim.
Whether it is the production of passenger car rims or commercial vehicle rims, the Rim Flash Butt Welding Machine can play a key role in the rim welding process with its precise flash control and suitable rim design. At the same time, it cooperates with other types of welding machines to provide a solid guarantee for the high-quality manufacturing of rims.

Description:

*This machine consists of body, right, left, up and down static and dynamic arm(all the parts casted by cast steel), electrode clamp,transverse driven upsetting device, hydraulic system, electric control system and welding transformer system.

*Taking advantages of good idea from Hess Corp, USA, we equip hydraulic system to control clamp, melted, upset and adjustment of melting which keep the accuracy of different melting series. The clamp is made of high conductive hard chrome zirconium copper, wear resisting,and easy to clean.

*Main transformer

The transformer is casted by two sides nonmagnetic aluminum head epoxy resin and made of imported high quality conductive magnetic steel sheet and electromagnetic wire. There are many advantages such as vacuum impregnation, temperature resistance, anti-seismic, high insulation ratio, small detectable leakage, energy conservation, high conductivity and high output power.

*This machine is controlled by PLC which have both manual and automatic program to ensure the reliability of the device. In automatic state,if we meet emergency, the welding process should be terminated forcibly, then after handling properly, reset the program and going on welding.

*The parameters can be modified by touched man machine interface, such as welding distance melting time, upsetting conduction time,clamp lifting time and length of welding, that is storable and callable.

*The hydraulic system adopts high quality Rexroth accessories, and the position detection adopts imported proximity switch and clamp accuracy.
