Coil Joining
The requirements on coil joints are constantly increasing.
For this reason, we rely on the benefits of laser welding technology – high welding speeds and excellent welding quality.
IDEAL arc welding machines cut and weld coil of various qualities and material combinations using a laser beam in a clamping device.
We offer flash butt welding and arc welding machines in semiautomatic or fully automatic versions with integrated coil end shears for smaller coil dimensions. Reliable MIG/MAG, TIG or plasma welds are produced, which serve the continuous coil replacement without interruption.
IDEAL coil joining machines are utilised in:
-
Etching lines
-
Coating lines
-
Continuous annealing lines
-
Inspection lines
-
Press and punch lines
-
Profiling lines
-
Pipe fabrication lines
-
Galvanising lines
-
Pitch lines.

Application Examples
Coils of various qualities and coil dimensions can be processed on the coil joining machines.
02
Type LBS Coil Joining Machine
Type LBS coil joining machines are the affordable variants for the welding of coils.
The LBS machine line offers a varying degree of automation in regard to the handling of the coil ends. Everything is possible from manual to fully automatic handling.
Due to the utilised welding process, the coils are joined in a very rational and cost-efficient manner.
Optionally, the machines can be equipped with various accessories.

Type AS Flash Butt Welding Machine
Flash butt welding results in a very high strength of the joint. Hence IDEAL-Werk flash butt welding machines are also used in heavy industry and shipbuilding. As is the case with the IDEAL AS0 220 B.
Flash butt welding is usually divided into three operations:
-
preheating
-
burn-off
-
upsetting.
The temperature of the workpiece ends to be welded increases with the duration of the burn-off process. Once the welding temperature is reached, the workpiece ends are pressed together under high pressure by the upsetting cylinder and welded.
A particular advantage is that no smooth butt surface is required for flash butt welding. In addition, the machine claims short welding times, low demands on the preparation of the material to be welded, and high reproductibility of the welding parameters.
