Decrease Welding Time (A.C. Welding)
Decrease force in steps of 10-20%
Use constant area electrodes or shape to

**
In most cases capacitor discharge welds do not have a significant nugget.
***
For non-Miyachi Unitek weld heads.
A certain amount of experimentation is necessary to achieve the proper welding force setting for a
specific application. The following are some general rules to make quality welds:
a.
Larger parts require higher force.
b.
Larger diameter electrode faces require higher force.
c.
Higher electrode forces require higher weld currents (energy).
