SLIDESHOW: Advantages of Electric Servo Linear Actuators in Automotive Spot Welding

What Automotive Manufacturers Want

• Cost Control
• High quality

How Welding Actuators Help

• Weld quality
• Welding speed
• Flexibility
• Total cost

Weld Quality

• Pneumatic welding actuators struggle
  • Fluctuating pressure is the issue

• Electric servo actuators deliver consistent, strong welds

Welding Speed

• Electric servo actuators can cycle faster than pneumatic

​ 

Flexibility

• Electric
  • Easy to program
  • Same equipment used as vehicles change
• Pneumatic
  • Not usually programmable
  • Vehicle changes may require different actuators

Total Cost

• Cost more to buy
• Save money in operation
  • Faster
  • Used for multiple vehicles
  • Efficient operation
  • Low maintenance
