Model 726 Bench Fixture
The Model 726 Bench Fixture is the “weld head” of the MTI Percussion Welder system. When combined with the 858 Percussion Welder, the system produces consistent, reliable weld joints. The 726 Bench Fixture can be adjusted on the X, Y, and Z axis to make precise adjustments and is simply operated with an initiation switch to make the weld. This adjustability allows for greater flexibility and control, making it ideal for a variety of welding applications.

Percussion Weld Monitor
MTI MicroWelding also provides the Percussion Weld Monitor, which offers waveform analysis to aid in the development of delicate weld settings. The Weld Monitor helps set up welds for particular products, evaluate production welds, and collect data to meet your QC requirements. The monitor provides data for continuous improvement.
The Percussion Weld Monitor compares each weld against a learned signature waveform and shows a Pass or Fail result.

Model 808 Percussion Welder Actuator
The Model 808 Percussion Welder Actuator is a solenoid specifically designed for percussion welding, with a low mass of the moving parts, allowing for the rapid acceleration of the weldment held in the moving wire holder. Rapid acceleration is crucial to producing clean and strong weld joints the instant the two dissimilar metals come into contact. With the operating voltage provided by the 858 Percussion Welder, the 808 Actuator delivers consistent acceleration, which results in a consistent and repeatable welding process, forming an efficient and crucial tool in production.

What is in the percussion welding system?
The 858 Percussion Welder (power supply and controller), the Model 726 Bench Fixture (the weld head), the Model 808 Percussion Welder Actuator (the solenoid), and the optional Percussion Weld Monitor.
What does the 858 do?
Its front panel sets up the weld. It is easily adjusted for joining dissimilar materials without filler material and with low added electrical resistance.
How is the 726 adjusted and operated?
It adjusts on the X, Y and Z axes for precise alignment and is operated with an initiation switch to make the weld.
What does the Percussion Weld Monitor add?
Waveform analysis to help develop weld settings, set up welds for particular products, evaluate production welds, and collect data for your QC requirements.
What does the 808 Actuator do?
It is a low-mass solenoid that rapidly accelerates the weldment in the moving wire holder. Driven by the 858, it gives consistent acceleration and a repeatable process.
