die FFTweldtec Advanced C Gun For the highest demands in aluminium welding
Aluminium has become indispensable in modern vehicle production – and at the same time places special demands on joining technology. With the FFTweldtec Advanced C Gun, we offer a spot welding gun that has been specially developed for aluminium components. It delivers consistently high welding currents, ensures process stability thanks to its optimised cooling system and enables short cycle times – even in demanding multi-shift operation.
Thanks to its robust, weight-optimised design, the FFTweldtec Advanced C Gun is perfect for robot-assisted use in large-scale production. The result: precise, reproducible spot welds and maximum productivity. With this technology, we support our customers in actively shaping the transition to electromobility and multi-material mixes – reliably, efficiently and with state-of-the-art technology.
