Weld spatter is the term used to describe the small droplets of molten metal that can be produced during welding. When a welder melts metal to fuse two pieces, some molten metal can splash or spray out of the weld pool and onto the surrounding surfaces. This molten metal quickly solidifies upon contact with the surface, forming small droplets that adhere to the workpiece, equipment, and other nearby surfaces. These droplets can be sharp, hot, and difficult to remove, making them a common problem in welding operations.

Resistance welding is an essential process used in various industries to join two or more metals. It uses pressure and electric current to join two or more pieces of metal. The success of this process depends, among other things, on the proper selection of the resistance welding electrode.

Resistance spot welding is one of the most frequently used pressure welding processes. The process works entirely without the use of shielding gas and filler materials. This makes the spot welding process relatively simple. Basically, the process can be divided into four phases.

Cost-efficient processes are in demand in welding as well as in the entire industry. In our blog post you will learn everything about cost-efficient spot welding, its other advantages and how exactly it works.

RWMA classes are standards used in the resistance welding industry to classify the composition and properties of materials used in welding operations, for example, welding electrodes. The RWMA classification system provides a standardized method for identifying and selecting the appropriate material for a specific welding application. The classes are based on the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the material and are intended to provide guidance on the suitability of the material for a particular welding application.

Choosing the right material for resistance welding can be a daunting task. Here is where RWMA classes come in handy. Read more in our latest blogpost:

In injection molding, whenever a plastic part has undercuts, the use of a slider is necessary. Otherwise, the plastic part cannot be ejected properly. For this to succeed, the right material with the right properties is needed.

Since many injection molded products have special requirements, auxiliary equipment is needed from time to time to form complex geometries, especially when it comes to releasing the finished product when the mold is opened. This is where a so-called slider is often used as a core-pulling mechanism

Sliders are always necessary when the plastic part cannot be demolded without moving tool parts. There is a great variety of slide mechanisms. At its basic level, a slider is used to convert the vertical motion of opening or closing the mold into a horizontal one.
