Multi-Welder (Cascade) Machine
–
A Multi-Welder machine has up to 8 valves and up to 8 weld
transformers. Each valve can be controlled independently. The transformers are controlled
independently. Each combination of valve and transformer executes a weld in a sequence or cascading
manner. This is why this type of machine is typically referred to as a
Cascade
.
A Multi-Welder (Cascade) weld control requires additional SCRs to control the multiple transformers. A
Multi-Welder control must be specified at the time of order with the number of transformers to be
controlled.
Cascade / MUX
The iPAK2v2 Cascade type weld controls can be identified by the part description.
The description must contain
MUX
which means additional SCRs have been
installed in the cabinet to fire additional transformers.
