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 some of the most consistent and reliable weld joints available in the industry. 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.

The 726 Bench Fixture ensures that each weld is executed with precision and consistency, reducing the likelihood of errors and enhancing the overall quality of the welds. Its robust design and ease of use make it a valuable addition to any micro-welding setup, ensuring that even the most demanding welding tasks are completed with accuracy.

Chapter 05 / 06

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.
