Application
The BMK-8 U / BMK-12 W SOYER stud welders for short-cycle drawn arc welding allow SOYER
threaded studs made of plain steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant steel as per
DIN EN ISO 13918
to be welded on different workpieces (sheets, tubes, steel girders etc.).
Usually round pins with or without thread are welded. You may also weld fasteners with different
cross-sectional shapes. For this purpose, however, special stud holders and ceramic ferrules or gas
shrouds are required.
With the BMK-8 U / BMK-12 W SOYER
stud welders it is also possible to weld studs of other metallic
materials than steel. It is, however, necessary to first carry out experimental welds and to inspect
them.
