WTC MiT (Measurement Instrument Technology) collects critical weld data essential for an informed welding quality process.

It is installed as a peripheral device that easily connects with any robot or weld control. The data collected is stored on WTC View-R that can be viewed as clear graphical information on WTC View-NET or RAFT™ Gateway.

This gives the weld engineer or plant maintenance personnel the ability to monitor every weld control in the plant from a single interface.

Key Features of Weld MiT

  AC and MFDC Weld data detection
  No schedule input necessary, only global parameters are used to detect a new weld, identify a re-weld condition, and modify the coil sensitivity and mV/kA ratio
  Data collection of:
  Max / Avg / Min Secondary Current
  Weld time in milliseconds
  Resistance calculation: Resistance Average (RA)/ Resistance Peak (RP) / Resistance Drop (RD)
  TCP Push Graph archive (Current, Resistance, Heat, Energy)
  Expulsion detection
  Secondary current coil test
  Secondary voltage wire test
  LED Display
  Weld count
  IP Address (if idle for 60seconds)
  “COIL” if coil test failed
  Three EtherNet ports. Two of which can be used for device level ring (DLR) architecture - two ports have the same IP address to support DLR.
  SoftQ features
  Can be paired with WTC View-R for traceability and enhanced data granularity for SoftQ quality system.
