Rod Butt Welding Machine

CRB-30K

Cruxweld resistance butt welding machine is a welding process in which the end faces of two parts are firmly pressed and resistance heat is used to heat the surfaces to a plastic state, then the upset force rapidly welds them together with or without pressure. Resistance welding is much easier for workers to work with compared to other welding methods.
 
The production cost is low while the welding productivity is very high. Specially designed for wire drawing mills to join steel, brass, aluminum, and copper rods, this butt welder is recommended for heavy-duty applications.
 
This rod butt welding machine is ideal for welding the joints of kitchen utensils such as knives, forks, spoons, and spatulas. It is also widely used for welding round pipe square tubes, round bars, flat bars, bicycle rims, motorcycle rims, etc.

Overview

The butt welding process requires steel rods or other conductive metals to be clamped with a force so that they can be joined together. These clamps must conduct current into the rod during the welding process in order to complete the butt welding.

We only use high-quality class 3 copper clamps, which are good conductors and have good mechanical and strength characteristics. Metal burrs caused by butt welding must be removed. This can be done by hand with an angle grinder or a built-in bench grinder. Excess flash material should be removed from each joint to facilitate drawing through the die.


Features

  • The opening and closing of the jaws are equipped with lever-operated jaws.
  • This model is standard equipped with an annealing function and a trolley is available on request for easy handling.
  • Auto cycle – clamping – welding – annealing – release.
  • The upset process is controlled by a micro-timer controller.

Common Applications

  • Used for welding wheel rims commonly used in bicycles, motorcycles, and cars, and can also weld similar strip rings.
  • It is used to make kitchen utensils such as cutlery, cooking knives, table knives, etc.
  • Manufacture of various metal wire joints, steel bar welding, steel strip construction, and rebar.
CRB-30K in detail

How the CRB-30K rod butt welding machine works

The CRB-30K rod butt welding machine follows an automatic cycle: clamp, weld, anneal, release. Lever-operated jaws open and close the class 3 copper clamps, a micro-timer controller runs the upset, and the built-in annealing function softens the joint so it can be drawn through a die without breaking.

Class 3 copper conducts the welding current into the rod and keeps its strength under clamping force. After welding, the flash is removed with an angle grinder or the built-in bench grinder. A trolley is available on request for moving the machine around the plant.

What the CRB-30K is used for

•Wire-drawing mills joining steel, brass, aluminium and copper rods
•Bicycle, motorcycle and car wheel rims
•Cutlery and kitchen knife blanks
•Round and square tubes, round and flat bars, rebar

Why wire mills choose it

Strong, drawable joints. Built-in annealing lets the welded rod go through the drawing die.
Good current transfer. Class 3 copper clamps conduct well and stay strong under clamping force.
Repeatable upset. The micro-timer controller runs the same cycle every time.
Low running cost. No filler wire, rod or gas, and high welding productivity.

Frequently asked questions

Which metals can the CRB-30K join?

Steel, brass, aluminium and copper rods, as used in wire-drawing mills, plus bars, tubes and rims.

Why anneal after butt welding?

Welding hardens the joint area. Annealing softens it again so the rod can be drawn through a die without breaking at the weld.

How is the flash removed?

By hand with an angle grinder or with the built-in bench grinder, so each joint passes cleanly through the die.

What rod size can it weld, and what does it cost?
