Resistance Welding Automation
If you’re looking to improve the efficiency and quality of your manufacturing process, then resistance welding automation may be the solution you’ve been searching for. Resistance welding is a popular method used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and electronics to join metal components together. By automating this process, manufacturers can reduce production time, increase accuracy and consistency, and ultimately save costs.
IMS Buhrke-Olson provides resistance welding automation services for businesses that need a professional, reliable partner to help them manufacture their products. Our team of experts has extensive knowledge and experience in resistance welding automation, and we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality results to our clients.
What Is Resistance Welding Automation?
Resistance welding automation is the use of automated resistance welding machines to perform resistance welding processes. This method involves joining metal parts together by applying heat and pressure without additional filler material. The process relies on electrical resistance to generate heat at the joint interface, melting and fusing the metal pieces together. Resistance welding automation can be used for various applications, including resistance and MIG welding.
What Can You Use Resistance Welding Automation For?
At IMS Buhrke-Olson, we use our automated resistance welding machines to perform resistance welding, automated MIG welding, and TOX™ locking and component insertion. Resistance welding is commonly used for joining metal sheets, rods, and wires in the automotive and aerospace industries. MIG welding, also known as Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), is a type of arc welding commonly used in the production of automobiles, boats, and appliances. TOX™ locking is a fastening technique that uses high-strength riveting to join metal components together without damaging their surfaces. Component insertion involves inserting one part inside another using force or pressure.
Why Use IMS Buhrke-Olson?
IMS Buhrke-Olson designs and builds both fully and semi-automated systems to perform resistance welding, automated MIG welding, TOX™ locking and component insertion. The design and build process for all of these systems is performed 100% in-house. We conduct a Design of Experiments (DOE) study on each application to assure reliability and repeatability during production.
Processes typically involve combining IMS Buhrke-Olson produced metal stampings as well as fasteners, adhesives, rubber, plastic, composites and other parts into a finished or semi-finished assembly. IMS Buhrke-Olson is fully staffed with bilingual electrical & mechanical engineers supporting all assembly line equipment at our plants in the US and Mexico. We use the latest fully automated robotic MIG welding technology to assure single-part flow and zero defect quality to our customers. We’re best known for the automated assembly of high volume components: items such as automotive airbag modules, entertainment system chassis, electronic engine control units and complicated bracket assemblies. All systems are designed and built to specifically meet customer needs and requirements.
With IMS Buhrke-Olson as your resistance welding automation partner, you can get the components and assemblies you need with consistent quality, quick turnaround times, and competitive pricing. Our team of experts will find the best solution for your manufacturing needs, and we’re always willing to work closely with our clients to ensure their satisfaction.
