Spot welding is a fundamental resistance welding technique widely used across industries such as automotive, electronics, HVAC, and home appliances. It involves joining two or more metal sheets at small points using localized heat generated by electrical resistance, resulting in fast, clean, and strong welds. Heron Welder's MFDC (Medium Frequency Direct Current) spot welding machines deliver state-of-the-art technology optimized for precision, stability, and energy efficiency, transforming how modern manufacturers approach spot welding operations.

Advanced MFDC Technology

Heron's MFDC spot welders utilize medium frequency direct current, which allows for an exceptionally rapid rise in welding current—often within 3 milliseconds—ensuring precise heat control at each weld spot. This sharp current rise time enhances weld quality by minimizing the heat-affected zone, reducing risk of distortion, and producing consistent weld strength. Unlike traditional AC welders, MFDC welders maintain superior control over difficult-to-weld metals such as copper, steel, and high-temperature alloys, enabling more reliable and repeatable joint quality.

Wide Power Range for Diverse Applications

Heron offers a broad portfolio of MFDC spot welders ranging from 110KVA to 2500KVA, supporting everything from delicate micro-electronics manufacturing to heavy automotive chassis welding. The E Series features robust frames and roller rams for optimal projection and spot welding, providing a stable welding process with a maximum short-circuit current up to 60kA. The H Series incorporates a modular design with intuitive digital controls including Mitsubishi or Siemens PLCs, touchscreens, quality monitors, and safety systems, maximizing productivity and simplifying maintenance in high-throughput environments.

Key Benefits of Heron MFDC Spot Welders

• Enhanced Weld Quality: Precise current control delivers strong, uniform spot welds with minimal defects.
