Radiator Panel Multi-Spot Welding Machine

Gantry multi-spot welder for radiator panels: 6 or 12 spots per stroke, 75 mm pitch, servo indexing, 300 KVA, independent electrode force, water cooled.

Product Introduction

The Radiator Panel Multi-Spot Welding Machine is designed for automatic spot welding of transformer radiator panels after the turnover and joining process.

The machine performs multiple resistance welding operations along the radiator oil channel, firmly joining two radiator panels together to ensure reliable connection and stable oil passage structure.

With a gantry-type welding structure, precise electrode control, and adjustable welding parameters, the equipment provides consistent welding quality and high production efficiency for transformer radiator manufacturers.

It is an essential welding unit in automatic radiator production lines, helping manufacturers achieve stable weld strength, reduced manual operation, and improved production consistency.

Main features

  • Multi-Point Resistance Welding

The machine performs multiple spot welding operations along the radiator oil channel, ensuring strong and uniform connections between radiator panels.

  • Flexible Welding Point Configuration

The equipment supports different welding configurations, including single-row and double-row welding structures, according to radiator design requirements.

  • Stable Welding Pressure Control

Each welding point is independently controlled by pneumatic pressure, ensuring uniform electrode force and consistent welding quality.

  • Adjustable Welding Parameters

The welding current, pressure, and welding sequence can be adjusted according to different radiator panel specifications.

  • Efficient Automatic Operation

Through PLC and touchscreen control, operators can easily set welding parameters and achieve stable automatic production.

Position in Transformer Radiator Production Line

The Radiator Panel Multi-Spot Welding Machine is installed after the panel turnover and joining process and before the double-side seam welding process.

The typical production sequence is:

Steel Coil Feeding → Hydraulic Mandrel Decoiler → Radiator Panel Roll Forming → Panel Turnover & Joining → Multi-Spot Welding → Double-Side Seam Welding → Edge Trimming → End Welding → Leveling → Automatic Cutting & Unloading → Header Pipe Assembly

After two radiator panels are accurately combined, the machine completes multiple spot welds along the oil channel direction, ensuring stable positioning before continuous seam welding.

This process improves welding accuracy, oil channel sealing reliability, and overall radiator manufacturing efficiency.
