Title:
WIRE WELDER AND METHOD FOR WIRE WELDING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/137856
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A welder is described that comprises a weld part, a clamp and a number of tools. The welder is for welding metal wires end-to-end to one another. Each of the tools has a tool indicator that is either in the complete or in the non-complete condition. The tools can be processing tools that are used to finish the weld or testing tools that allow testing the weld once finished. Before starting the welding the first metal wire is held in the clamp. By that action all tool indicators are set to the non- complete condition. When a processing tool has been used, its respective processing tool indicator is set to complete. Likewise when the weld has passed the specification of a testing tool, the testing tool indicator is set to complete. When each processing and testing tool indicator is set to complete the clamp will open. In this case it is sure that the operator has done all necessary steps and checks on the weld.
