The OHMA Weld cylinder operates using
an "air over oil" intensification principle to produce non-shock
welding force. This method of operation allows the cylinder to remain
compact and provides numerous advantages to resistance welding
applications:
Low impact (non-shock) advance to the work
for minimal electrode mushrooming and to help maintain tip alignment
The ability to produce a wide range of
forces (i.e. a 2" bore OHMA cylinder can produce from 600 to 5000 lbs. of tip force using between 20 and 100 psi air pressure)
Simple construction and operation to
minimize down-time
Ability to function in any position
Compact construction to minimize air
consumption
Small bore size to enable multiple cylinders to
perform applications with close weld spacing
The
standard OHMA Weld Cylinder is supplied in the following range of
