Type BAS 300 flash butt welding machines

The IDEAL BAS series is the result of more than 90 years of design and construction experience in the field of band saw joints. It is impressive in particular due to its high speed, short set-up times and fast product changes. Systematic research and development, highly qualified personnel and continuous collaboration with our customers have made us one of the world’s leading suppliers of flash butt welding machines for band saws. During the designing of the BAS 300, the worker was the main focus. For this reason, particular emphasis was placed on easy and ergonomic operation. On all machine types, the compact and robust machine design with intuitive operation is oriented towards industrial usage in production. Used around the world, IDEAL flash butt welding machines have been proving their quality and reliability on a day-to-day basis and have been doing so for decades.

Advantages of the flash butt welding machine BAS 300

Automatic setting of the welding and annealing parameters using the simple touchscreen input
Accurate repeatable welding as a result of the program-controlled welding and annealing process
Storage of up to 100 programs with all welding and annealing parameters
Integrated spark protection to increase the occupational safety and the health protection
Control and monitoring of all parameters with the program control for the highest product quality
Infrared spectral pyrometer for contactless temperature measurement during the annealing process for optimal weld seams
Illumination of the welding point with LED ligthing
Protection of the pneumatic and hydraulic components with the separate assembly in the housing
Minimisation of the set-up time by means of the quick and easy changing of the set-up of the electrodes to other band dimensions

Quite classic – flash butt welding machines are used here

IDEAL band saw welding machines are used by leading manufacturers of band saws and coils. They are used to join wood, metal and stainless steel saws and coils.

Technology of the flash butt welding machine

The flash butt welding technology is used for band saw welding machines. With this welding method, there is only selective contact between the band saw parts during the heating phase. The high current density liquefies the material, and the components partly flash at the welding point. In order to maintain contact, the machine works with the feed movement of an electrode, including a band saw part. When the temperature is reached, it compresses the components. A burr is formed at the compression point, which is removed in the next step.

Modular design – meets your requirements

Extensive experience with flash butt welding technology and a close collaboration with our customers, the cooperation with technical universities and research institutes as well as an instinct for technology trends form the foundation of our great innovative strength. The basis of our development work lies in the further development of our proven standard machines and in the new development of tailor-made, individual special solutions. Modular machine construction allows additions to be made specifically for your requirements.

Optional modules for the type BAS 300 butt welding machine

For the BAS series, IDEAL offer a multitude of supplemental modules in order to make your machine modularly more efficient and incorporate it optimally in your production.

Hydraulic deburring tool
Pneumatic insertion device
Centring device for coil ends
Special clamping device for holding and aligning band knives

Accessories for the pre- and post-processing of strips for all machine types

You can add to and expand your strip grinding machine with different components to suit your needs. These include various designs of strip shears and grinding machines that can be added directly to the machines for the further processing of the welded strips and band saws.
