Overview

The Automatic Friction Welding Machine is a general term for the welding process, which uses equipment to weld continuously without the need for continuous operation of the operator.

In factory automation, automatic friction welding machine instead of manual welding, welding according to the program, improve processing time and batch production efficiency.

  • YE-C20 Friction Welding Machine is a hydraulic drive, semi-automatic continuous drive welding machine.
  • A wide range of welding metals, especially suitable for welding dissimilar metals. The welding surface is not easy to oxidation, microstructure (fine forging organization), and not easy to produce pores, cracks, and other defects. Usually can be compared with the strength of the base metal to form the same joint.
  • This Friction Welding Machine has good reproducibility, stable welding quality, easy to realize automatic control of process parameters and quality.
  • Good working conditions, no environmental pollution, easy to put into the mechanical production line production. High production efficiency includes welding copper fittings, up to 300-500 pieces per hour. Low power consumption and energy-saving. No material needs to be added during welding.

Manufactures Description

frication welding machine

High-Speed Productivity: The main spindle operates at 1800r/min, achieving a productivity rate of 100 to 400 pieces per hour.

Intelligent Control System: Utilizes an advanced programmable logic controller (PLC) and touch screen for high automation, featuring an automatic built-in counter to track processed parts.

Powerful Welding Force: Delivers a maximum upsetting force of 200KN and top forge force ranging from 20 to 200KN (adjustable), ensuring robust and durable welds.

Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide welding area of 113–961mm² and workpiece diameters from Ф10 to Ф35mm.

Premium Component Integration: Built with robust systems, including a YX3-180M-6 main motor (18.5KW) and reliable hydraulic and lubrication systems for continuous industrial performance.

Applications

The YE-C20 Friction Welding Machine is widely adopted across various high-technology and traditional industrial departments:

Automotive & Machinery Manufacturing: Essential for welding shafts and tube parts such as internal combustion engine valve stems, superchargers, universal joint ball cages, and half-axles.

Tools & Cutting Equipment: Highly effective for producing milling cutters, drilling bits, and screw taps.

Electrical & Construction: Ideal for manufacturing copper aluminum connectors (bi-metallic lugs) and building with steel components.

Oil Drilling: Robust enough for the heavy-duty demands of welding drill rods.

How It Works

frication welding machine

Clamping: The workpieces are securely held by the rotary clamp and the moving clamp.

Rotation & Friction: The main motor drives the spindle, causing one workpiece to rotate against the stationary one, generating intense frictional heat under an initial applied pressure.

Upsetting: Once the metal reaches a plastic state, rotation is quickly stopped, and a strong axial pressure (upsetting force) is applied and held to forge the pieces together.

Ejection: The process completes automatically based on the PLC presets, and the finished part is ready for removal.

Why Choose Us

Precision Engineering: The main spindle box utilizes specialized angular contact bearings (7026A and 7024A) to handle intense friction and axial pressure.

Customization Support: We provide 4 pieces of rotating clamp heads and 4 pieces of moving clamp heads, allowing adjustments for different workpiece diameters.

Comprehensive Documentation: Every machine is accompanied by detailed operating instructions, an electric hydraulic schematic diagram, and a packing list for easy setup and maintenance.
