IDEAL type DSH and DSF butt welding machines for the joining of steel, aluminium and copper wires

With IDEAL type DSH and DSF butt welding machines, precise, repeatedly accurate and draw-resistant butt welds are achieved. This robust machine concept with intuitive operation is especially suited for the use in wire-drawing mills, cable factories and in wire processing. Due to the accurate linear welding carriage guide, the machine is also ideally suited for the joining of wire products in single operation. Type DSH machines are equipped with manual clamping devices; the type DSF – for better handling of the wires – is fitted with pedal-actuated clamping devices on an undercarriage. As standard, all type DSH and DSF butt welding machines are already equipped with a device for the annealing of steel with low carbon content. Depending on the respective application, the machines can furthermore be fitted with additional annealing devices. The annealing devices cover the range from simple to electronically controlled as well as automatic annealing temperature control with infrared spectral pyrometer. As a result, even the processing of hard steel wire or specific alloys does not pose any problems. On IDEAL butt welding machines in the equipment variant NE – for the processing of non-ferrous metals – the jaw distance, upset pressure and current path can be set separately from each other even in the basic configuration. Of course, this function is also available for all other machines of the DS series.
