Genius HWI IQR – a state-of-the-art Inverter Power Supply with Adaptive Regulation System to Assure the Quality of Resistance Spot Welding

There is a new procedure and regulation system that assists the user of the resistance welding process to weld a consistently “safe spot” weld and, at the same time, helps to stabilize the welding process.

With the electrical sizes welding current and welding voltage there are two relatively easy to ascertain values available in correlation to the welding quality. By the high time scale of the medium-frequency technology the regulation speed at resistance welding can be adjusted to the real welding process. New algorithms developed by extensive testing series in the laboratory and in practise assure a constant welding quality under highly varying conditions of the surroundings. Depending on the application the user can upgrade the inverter GeniusHWI with this IQR regulation.

In the report this inverter generation GeniusHWI and the regulation system IQR is described with an outlook towards new technologies of fast parameter setup systems.
