The PRC7000 control for resistance welding provides precise adjustment of the welding current to eliminate spatter and rework. Innovative software tools and a modular design enable up to 90 percent faster commissioning. The PRC7000 can store 10,000 welding programs that can be easily selected and built via a drag-and-drop graphical interface to program sophisticated welding sequences that can have 100 or more separate heat blocks. Through user-friendly programming tools, each heat block can be configured to handle specific weld criteria.
The system also features a new, Industry 4.0-ready dual-processor architecture for both process control and communications with higher-level automation systems. This enables high data transfer rates without affecting the process control; combined with an integrated web server, this supports wireless operator control and diagnostics via mobile devices.
