Data interface and diagnostics
A LCD monitor shows the data thus allowing presetting the heating and welding times with display of the remaining time while the cycle is being performed. Errors due to malfunctions or abnormal conditions during the work cycle can also be displayed on the monitor. The preset softening temperature is compared with the actual softening temperature in order to ensure improved hold of the weld and to indicate any differences.
Heated and adjustable welding bead restrictors
The welding bead size is controlled by heated restrictors provided with mechanical adjustment. Such devices allow varying the welding bead thickness within a range between 0.2 and 2 mm. The temperature is controlled by a digital temperature controller and can reach 50°C.
Setting of depth of fusion
The depth of fusion can be set mechanically at 2.5 or 3 mm during the configuration phase so that the welding characteristics can be adapted to the customer’s own standards and various types of profile.
Device for welding 4th corner
Positioning of small frames for welding the 4th corner could cause difficulties for the operator as well as abnormal stress on the frame. SM 1LV is provided with a device for limiting the stroke of the intermediate stop. It also makes use of the accurate movement of the vices for inserting the heating plate thus making it easier to handle the profile.
