New Welder Overcomes Limitations of Traditional Resistance Welding Systems
International Technologies, Inc., a distributor of technologically advanced metal fabricating machinery, now offers the NK23 MySpot resistance spot welder from Koyo Giken. The NK23 MySpot resistance spot welder is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional resistance welding systems. It delivers superior weld quality without time-consuming setups and surface marring that often requires extensive post-weld finishing.
The MySpot is ideally suited for applications including switchboard panels, NEMA enclosures, steel furniture, tool chests, food display cases, vending machines, signboards, compressor housings and automotive components such as car doors.
The NK23 series features a newly redesigned horizontal welding gun that enables access to deep boxes and narrow channels that were previously difficult—or impossible—to weld. Dual-arm models include a vertical gun optimized for stud and nut welding as well as tall, deep and narrow weld points. The copper tables are equipped with a new lifting function that simplifies the use of jig electrodes that conform precisely to the shape of the workpiece.
Ergonomics and ease of operation are central to the NK23’s design. The load required to move the welding arm has been reduced by up to 53%, while the effort needed to insert the H-gun has been reduced by up to 91%, significantly reducing operator fatigue and improving productivity.
The ergonomic “floating” welding guns allow operators to effortlessly position the welding tip at the desired weld location. The intuitive design makes the machine easy to learn and virtually eliminates the need for complex fixturing and setup, further increasing throughput.
MySpot’s unsurpassed weld quality is enhanced through high-speed welding technology, which delivers a 0.001-second burst of current to minimize heat and burning. This process produces welds with nearly invisible marks, dramatically reducing marring and indentation for a clean, high-quality finish. High-speed technology is available on all MySpot models and is offered standard on the NK23 series, along with 3.8 kN high-pressure welding power.
The MySpot CNC automatically sets welding parameters based on material type and thickness. The new NK23 EZK touch panel adds advanced features such as barcode scanning for offline part design, weld sequence optimization and production management. A graphical display of optimal weld locations helps reduce operator error, while weld history storage supports maintenance, inspections and traceability across customer applications.
