Electronic spot-welding device for modelling

spot welding.jpgThanks to Francesco for this one, he highlights a specially developed spot-welding device:
"This electronic spot-welding device has been specially developed for producing assemblies from steel wire," he writes. "The point where the wires meet is fixed together using a pair of pliers whose tips take the form of welding contacts; when the start switch is pressed, the joint is firmly welded together. During the welding process a current of up to 2500 A flows through the contacts for a few thousands of a second."

Input voltage: 230 V
Output voltage: max. 24 V
Welding power graduations: min.; mid.; max. (18/21/24 V)
Welding output: max. 2500 A at 24 V
