The CenterLine FlexFast™ CLCS (CenterLine Control Solution) configured stationary welder is a compact, versatile, welding machine designed for production fastener welding applications. This design includes many standard features that ensure the FlexFast™ CLCS produces consistent weld quality, is easily operated, and has minimal maintenance requirements.
The FlexFast™ CLCS offers:
Exceptional part quality at a competitive cost
Solid construction, capable of welding fasteners up to 13.3 kN (3000 lbs) weld force
Ability to weld up to M10 sized fasteners – application/fastener dependent
One (1) or two (2) OHMA™ air/oil weld actuator(s) with configurable fixed spacing
Low impact, “soft-touch” operation to minimize electrode wear, deflection, and part deformation. This promotes higher-quality welding and lower maintenance needs.
Four schedules available per cylinder
Accurate control over weld forces over a wide range of air pressure settings
Interchangeable lower tooling enables rapid changeover for multi-application needs
CLCS HMI Features
Reduced cost compared to a PLC and standard HMI while maintaining high quality and safety
Wi-Fi “over-the-air” updates for firmware, if required
No PLC programming required, equipped with controller and HMI pre-programmed functionality
No software license fees are required
Upper and lower electrode weld counters for maintenance notifications
Weld control, with discrete interface
Dynamic high-resolution touch screen
Discrete control of up to 2 feeders
Active in-process weld monitoring
