VH-1870
VH-1870
Vertical Hydraulic Hot Plate Welder
The VH-1870 is a vertical heat platen orientation, hydraulic motion controlled hot plate welding system capable of welding parts up to 18" x 70" (457mm x 1778mm) or multiple smaller parts. Customized variants of this model are available.
When compared to horizontal platen systems, vertical systems typically: Allow faster tooling changeovers. Allow easier and more positive operator loading and unloading of the tooling. Ensure more precise part half alignment during welding (less scrap) as no special part-part alignment features must be designed into the parts themselves (required for accurate machine pick-up of one part half on horizontal systems).
