Strip Butt Welder

Sterco Band Saw Butt Welder is the result of many years of experience, research and development. It is the most modern method of joining Band Saw Blades giving a joint strength 25% higher than that of the base metal strength. It eliminates the old process of overlapped brazing. Resistance welding is quick and automatic, thus eliminating human error and giving a perfect and strong joint. The mechanical timer provided with the system is automatically tripped, after the job is done. Welded joint can withstand high tensile and can be easily drawn upto minimum size.
» Welding Process
The Band Saw Blades are cut straight exactly at right angles and free of burrs. Welding current, upsetting pressure and upsetting way are set according to the blade width the blade ends being rigidly clamped by special quick acting jaws. By Depressing the welding lever the automatic welding cycle starts. The two ends are heated upto forging temperature in a few seconds, then automatically forged (upset) and current switches off.
