Welding Control (TE101) TECNA: Precision, Versatility and Automation for Single-Phase Resistance Welding Machines

The TE101 is an advanced microprocessor-based welding control unit manufactured by TECNA , designed for single-phase resistance welders. Its versatility makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, from manual machines (both manually and pneumatically operated) to automated welding systems.

Main features:

• Synchronous control with controlled diodes and phase-controlled welding current adjustment for optimum precision.
• Integrated true RMS ammeter with two selectable ranges (18-56kA) for easy current monitoring.
• Storage of 99 welding programmes , with external selection of 31 programmes or 15 programmes with parity control.
• Semi-period welding time adjustment to adapt to different processing requirements.
• Advanced functions such as pre-welding, slope and pulsation to optimise the process.
• Current control limits and external error signalling, with automatic shutdown if limits are exceeded.
• Single cycle and automatic modes, with WELD/NO WELD function.
• Current compensation to facilitate welding of sheet metal and rods with traces of rust.
• Provision for connecting two independent cycle start devices to perform different welding programmes.
• Option to disable self-locking, ideal for manually operated welders.
• Adjustment of the first insertion delay of cos φ , to optimise the balance of line absorption and the linearity of current regulation.
• End-of-cycle output for automation applications and input for protection thermostat.
• Self-adjustment to 50/60 Hz mains frequency and 24 Vdc solenoid valve management (max 7.2 W), with short-circuit protected output.
• Optional RS232 serial interface for connection to printers or PCs, allowing easy documentation of production data.

The TE101 is the ideal solution for those looking for reliable, versatile and easy-to-use welding control that can adapt to different production requirements.
