Stud Welding Machines for Sale in Houston

Investing in the right stud welding machine starts with the right process. Here are the systems we carry.

Capacitor Discharge Stud Welding Machines

Capacitor Discharge Stud Welding Machines

A CD stud welding machine fastens small studs to thin work metals. When the weld gun is activated, energy discharges through the fastener, melting the base of the stud and the matching portion of the work metal. A spring then presses the stud into the molten metal. Once it solidifies, what remains is a strong, sturdy weld.

Arc Stud Welding Machines

Arc Stud Welding Machines

An arc stud welding machine fastens large studs to rough, thick base metals. A controlled electric arc flows through the stud, melting both the stud tip and a portion of the base metal. The stud is plunged into the molten surface, leaving a quality fusion weld as it cools.
