Stud Welding: How Stud Welding Can Reduce Cost
|
|
Stud Welding can reduce costs by saving labor and material where end joined components are required by speeding up design
time and application rates, and preventing many common secondary operations. Bosses and
spotfacing, counterboring, undercutting and manual fillet welding, soldering, drilling
and tapping, riveting, inserts and special retainers are often totally eliminated.
Yet in most cases the welded joint is stronger than many of these traditional jointing
methods.
A single operator, working with a single system, from just one side of the
work piece can attach many parts each minute.
Other advantages with CD stud welding include attachment to
very thin metals, no reverse side marking such as in pre-laminated, painted, or plated parts
and no excessive part heating or warpage. ARC stud welding provides high
fastener strength requiring less material for component system integrity, and is usually not
affected by minor contamination situations presented in normal construction procedures.
