Device for welding of welding elements
Component for storage of electrical energy.
Autonomous gas discharge between two electro-
des when the current is high enough. A whitish light
is emitted in the process. The electric arc allows
very high temperatures to be generated.
Electrical component that converts alternating vol-
tage into direct voltage
Device for automatic feeding of welding elements
Device for welding of welding elements
Stud welding unit including stud welding gun or
welding head
Device for provision of the electrical energy for
stud welding
Electronic component for contact-free switching of
high currents; switching takes place via the control
input
Component such as stud or pin that is welded to
the workpiece
Mechanical and electrical settings at the stud wel-
ding gun or welding head and at the stud welding
unit (e.g. spring force, charging voltage)
Components such as sheet metal or tubes to which
the welding elements are to be fastened
